    Hi..
    I'd like to know your opinion about my site.. It is a file storing and sharing site which allows user to upload up to 1 GB of files.
    These are the main features:
    1) 1 GB space
    2) 300 MB max individual file size
    3) Personal online desktop for every user!*
    4) Protect file with password...
    5) As many demo temporary account to try the service without registering..
    6) And some other things...

    * The online desktop works like any other desktop, there are icons for your files etc.. everything inside the site is done by using a web operative system interface.. I mean just like any other OS like windows or linux...

    All obviously Free....

    Any opinion about the design, ease of use, SEO, ads placement (it is temporary, i will change it), etc... is welcome!

    Good Bye :)

    For some reason I can't connect to it. Could just be my connection. I'll try again later.

    But the features sound nice. :)

    I don't know why you are experiencing these problems, I suppose it is your connection because for me the site is working fine :)

    Thank you ;)

    Ok, got connected.

    The design is perfect. Nice job! :)

    The only thing I want to warn you about is the amount of junk people will be uploading to your site. I've found that free services are quickly exploited by the lowest scum on the planet. Not sure what defensives you have in place but be careful.

    Good luck!

    The site looks great. Just tried the demo and it all looks very user-friendly. Four suggestions:
    - It's tricky to read the slogan under the main 'ShareOS' logo, consider making it a little bigger.
    - The area under the Google ads on the homepage looks too empty. I'd fill it with 'Quick Links' such as a big 'Join' button as people will have already read about ShareOS above.
    - Again, the same white space on the 'Help' page.
    - On the homepage, you need to add a link to the 'View More' image to Premium page (furthest right image below the nav bar).

    Hope that helps!

    Paradoxically I've the opposite problem, that is, nobody is uploading file to my site now.. well anyway you are right for the future I should take some prevention ;)
    Thank you!

    Thank you too for your suggestions, I've just fixed the link on the 'View More' image to the Premium page and I'm now thinking about the ads...
    I was planning to place them in another place (I don't know where, right now) but if I would leave them where they are I will surely put something in the white space under them.
    For the logo text I just put wrong width and height and the text was displaying in a bad way.. I've now fixed it too! :)

    Thank you all again,
    Good bye :)

    Not bad at all..
    Something like fanbox I assume.

    Well, for the main site, you should make the little text (description) a little bit bigger.
    And put a gap for the bottom adsense.
