Want 500 Credits?

[Corey]

Thanks to Russ and Christopher we've finally opened up x10Exchange and thanks to Brandon FileVIP is now working.

I'm looking for people to sign-up and use the services above and provide some detailed feedback. I would like a paragraph of feedback per service. So it will be 250 credits per service above with a max of 500 credits total.

I hope by doing this any remaining bugs or issues will be caught. I'm also hoping to get a list of ideas or small changes that will make these additional services more user friendly and better all around.

Just post in this thread with your feedback. Please allow me a few days to award the credits, I'm very backed up with things to do ;).

If your response is not well written I will deny you the credits.

First of all, what are the links? ;) Second, you have a spelling error in your post I do believe. caugh = caught?

hey i've just been looking at FileVIP and don't understand something about the services page, it says the a free member has a max file size of 200.00MB and the premium has a max filesize of 128.00MB?

Edit

Also on that page it says "create" what.......? a little random!

Edit2

If you try an add more than 10 file uploads at once it looks very messy

Edit3

Just by changing the fid you can easily get into the admin area for peoples folders and delete them (e.g http://filevip.com/folders.php?admin=1&fid=xxx

Edit4

Just been onto x10exchange and the page http://www.x10exchange.com/user.php?action=funds_order
is interesting "Error!
This option is disabled in configuration. You should remove the link from template _head_user.txt."

I'll look into the FileVIP errors soon, and adjust the premium plan.

I used filevip to upload some files, it was OK overall. The design was nice, members area was all good.

Some things i noticed
1. The premium plan offers 128mb max upload, but free offers 200mb. (noted on above posts i think)
2. Maybe TOS should already be checked, because it was a little annoying for me to keep on clicking it.
3. Uploading progress bar should not extend over the edge (not a big deal)
4. I dont think password protection for the files works.
5. Maybe you should set the time for the captcha thing a little longer.

Some things i liked:
1. I think you can password protect your document and provide a description.

Some things i would like:
1. I would really like a viewer and maybe even an un-compressor. For some files like .doc or .txt, you just want to read them.
2. Add another upload box button should be a little clearer.

x10exhcnage has a nice clean layout for the users but there are problem areeas that need to be solved:

1: our forum user account should be at least intergrated to improve useability without being forced to setup a new account it will also help spot users that break the TOS

2: there is no default ad codes for new users. would it be possible to show the users what kinda of ad would they like. ( think of google ad sense)

3:i agree with supajason some of the areas on the site are disabled for some reason.

but overall i think this is a good start to an alternative to google adsense

The both sites don't load for me. Firefox says it needs to wait to long.

[medphoenix]

I have just signed-up for free package(Registered)
Browser I used: Mozilla Firefox Ver. 2.0.0.13

BUGS!!!:

*** There is no session limitation for sign-up.... I have created a username: phoenix and open another window and created another user (user name:ddd -) without logout as phoenix. (when click the sign-up button, It must be show our user info!?)

*** for the second User (ddd) I enter email address : dddd
So any text can be enter in email field (the signup form didn't check the @ sign!!!!).
If user incidentally enter some text for email address, he can't retrieve his password ( of course I don't know the password for user 'ddd' and can't retrieve the password - my email I entered is "dddd".), whereas I received email with user details for "phoenix" account.

suggestion:
Email verification for user accounts?

Please delete the account user name: "ddd" as I created it for testing purpose
(# : Here I didn't mention the real username in case of "phoenix")
(I don't need credit for this...)

In fileVIP:
1-
1.1- After the upload is done, you could add a link saying "Upload another file" to avoid people have to look around for the home button (at footer);
1.2- Home and Upload in footer are meaningless since both go to same place..
1.3- why all those > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > at footer? Just use text-align:right;
2-
2.1- Since the layout is big, make the form a little bigger in width and height, make a nice button for 'file' and 'upload', with rounded corners like everything else of website. Using the ones of OS is so ugly.
2.2- Give a space between check box and "I accept terms of service" (isnt missing a 'the' between accept and terms?
3- Since ToS is so little, why dont you use those Tooltip boxes? - instead of opening new window. A nice tooltip, that will match with fileVIP layout is this one http://trentrichardson.com/examples/csstooltips/
4-
4.1- If the file name is big, it breaks all layout (screen below)
4.2- Sometimes, the "Download Link" bugs and then, appear the image name, then a link to image...

The sites work now for me.

FileVip.

Header menu:
Change name of the link members to Account.

Member Area:
Make the context here a bit lower.
And the background of this is good. It is double.

Signup: Make that the compare link opens in a new window.

Upload: Make the "
Status: unknown bytes of unknown sent (at unknown Kbps)
Est time left: unknown
Elapsed time: unknown" shows up under the upload status bar.

My account name is Mitch.

One more suggestion, change the support@x10hosting.com email address to support@filevip.com. It looks nicer.
