    Survivebio.com

    So Survive Bio is a site where many study resources for AP Biology are put in one place. It has instructional videos, flashcards, chapter outlines, games, practice tests and quizzes and an answers section all in one place. To make the site more engaging, I used alphauserpoints and community builder to allow users to get points for using the study tools and getting a higher rank and medals to show off on their profiles. I just launched the website this week so let me know what you think! Thanks!

    At first look I like the site.

    I would make the names of each section a bit more prominent. Something like changing the font to a bolder font.

    I would include pictures within the chapter outlines to make it easier to understand what you're talking about. Right now it's a wall of text. That would help a lot if you're trying to understand bio concepts.

    Perhaps put a sign up to become a member in the sidebar. Then outline what's the benefit of becoming a member.

    Those are my thoughts. Love the concept of the site.

    You guys just made my day. I put a lot of work into this site and I am so happy that you guys think so highly of it. Iain thanks for the criticisms, I actually was thinking of putting a sign to become a member on the side saying you get points and everything too. Thanks for everything!

    So I added a small leaf on the bottom right for guest users that expands when you put the mouse over it and helps advertise registering and its benefits as you suggested, what do you think?
