Did they just copy Sitepoint?

No, because you can actually get around the site without being swamped by popups :)

Looks very similiar in design… I really like the “Soft Layout”.

I wasn’t crazy about the old design, but it was original and functional whereas (I feel) this new design plays too much off of sitepoint and detracts from the overall usability.

I’m a big fan of “if you’re not going to do something better or do something different, don’t do it at all”. I realize this goes against the general consensus in an industry of MFA sites and services, but it’s just my opinion.

It is nice to see that they are enthusiastic about – and show a vested interest in – their site though. A quality I can appreciate in other web masters.

Interesting website… I’ll have to check it out more later.

Personally, I liked the old design much better. Yes, this one does look like SitePoint. The marketplace is almost exactly the same.

Heck, I don’t even remember the old design. I really do like the vbulletin style though and how the amount earned shows up next to each poster’s avatar.

(Note: I don’t remember old design either, lol)

11 ToddW March 7, 2007 at 8:38 pm

Ok, I looked at the new design again and sure enough that marketplace looks ALMOST identical to SP!!

I still like the layout/design, easy on my eyes. They just need more content now.

Here is the link to the contest if you guys couldn’t find it.

They say whoever gets the most points wins.

“All participants are required to keep track of their own points tally”

Works for me, I’m going to start myself out at 486 points. XD

Actually SitePoint’s Marketplace doesn’t compare as we have everything they offer and much more. We have automatic tools that are buyer friendly like the backlinks, whois info, and so on. Simple steps any buyer should follow, but we built it in to the system. We have a thumbs up system in place to minimize spammy comments on sales threads. Finally, (I am sure I left out some stuff) we have a tool you can download that will run in your Systray that will notify you of new listings by category in the Marketplace instantly. This is awesome for both buyers and sellers.

I think it looks too much like SitePoint. I don’t know if I’m really feelin the new design. Maybe it just takes some getting used to.

15 soul-healer March 8, 2007 at 3:45 am

to me it is nice to see other forums with good market place i dont care it looks like sitepoint or not what i care is i have another place where i can sale and purchase.

16 Dastar March 8, 2007 at 6:39 am

ok, I don’t feel so bad now :)

I didn’t see any way to really contact you on your site short of joining the forums so I’d like to let you know that when you are on the tools page that the navigational element for home goes to the wrong url.

WOW big change but in the long run i am sure it will be for the good! Nice work.

Reply

20 jim March 8, 2007 at 9:46 am

Yeah, this new look def. plays off the sitepoint feel (and a little of the look) but it’s nice to see it’s moving around. I stopped using it when all the boards got too noisy to be useful.

You all need to catch up… I have one meeeeeeellion points already.

22 Stuart March 8, 2007 at 11:05 am

Personally not liking the new skin, it’s way to similar to sitepoint.

Reply

23 Greg-J March 8, 2007 at 11:23 am

Same here regarding the forum usage. I find the one that made them different in the beginning (having your monthly gross next to your name) detractive from the experience. I don’t want anyone knowing what I make and would never disclose it. Especially to people I want to business with…

24 David Myers March 8, 2007 at 4:15 pm

Just looks like a bad Sitepoint rip. Too bad :(

Reply

25 Daniel March 8, 2007 at 5:36 pm

agreed here, but perhaps with time they will be able to differentiate themselves

26 Nathan Hannig March 8, 2007 at 5:51 pm

I use to visit that forum, I wonder if this will make it more popular again

27 ToddW March 8, 2007 at 10:57 pm

After examing them both more I think it’s pretty clear he copied sitepoint’s design ;)

Who cares if it looks like Sitepoint, the content is good. The fact that everyone is comparing it to Sitepoint might be exactly what they are looking for.

30 Eli March 9, 2007 at 9:53 pm

Harsh, and not true unless you’re not registered.

31 Maki March 10, 2007 at 11:45 am

I liked the old design better as well.. I think there’s a little too much clutter in the new design.

Reply

32 Nathan Hannig March 10, 2007 at 6:09 pm

Yeah I agree it sort of looks like SitePoint, but I like that layout

Reply

33 Josh Buckley March 11, 2007 at 10:35 am

I also agree with the sitepoint comments, i think they get 0 for originality there…

34 ToddW March 11, 2007 at 3:02 pm

There’s a thread on SP about the “Copy” and I believe SP are looking into it.

Привет всем, млин тут комп не давно сломался и остался я без компа и инета аж на целых 5 дней! Епт такой тошняк был пока не починил, ведь есть все таки зависимость от компьютора как ни крути. Помню раньше не было и не надо )). А еще игры это вообще жесть затягивает. Не давно видел объявление на ряду с лечением табакокурения, алкогализма, в третей строчки было лечение от ИГРОМАНИИ. Во как! Докатились!
Зависимость или свобода конечно все зависит от нас.
