Hi, as you might have seen from my posts on the other topics I have launched a website around scuba diving and would like to get your feedback on it. I am quite proud so far, but I also know that there is a lot of things that can be improved. http://www.scubish.com What do you like? What would you improve? Is is easy for you to use the site? The site has multiple major components: - A large database of scuba diving destinations which are grouped hierarchically (e.g. Africa - Egypt - Hurghada). The idea is that scuba divers can plan their vacations and find a nice dive shop. - A discussion forum about the various destinations. This can either be accessed from http://forum.scubish.com or via the Country pages. - Some scuba diving specific features (you need to register to try these). An online log book to log your dives (it is recommended to use a dive log by scuba instructors), a buddyfinder so you don't have to dive alone (actually in scuba diving it is highly recommended to always dive with another person for safety reasons), some supporting functions like your own profile and some trip information. While these features already work, they will be more useful once there are enough users actually using them. The idea is to integrate this information with the destinations later (e.g. to see who was diving in Hurghada and at what dive spots) - Some information about scuba diving. The site has a link database with scuba diving websites, some news from scuba diving RSS feeds, a dive reference book and a fun scuba quiz game. - Please make sure to try the search and let me know what you think about it. It combines information from the website, the forum and from sites in the link database. Is that easy to understand or a stupid idea? The site is not completely finished (at least there is a long list of things I want to implement over the next few months) and I know that there are some validation issues (perhaps I have changed the design already to often...), but in general is site is up and running and I would really like to get your feedback on it. If you are a scuba diver yourself and have ideas on what's missing in terms of scuba specific features please let me know. Thank You, Matthias
Pretty cool site. Is it all original content? Looks like many hours or work involved, well done. I think your search result page needs work. Very cluttered. Overall I like the look of the site, I will bookmark this one (keen diver myself), will be interesting to check out some other dives sites around the world.

the blue links in the main content are a bit too light and a bit difficult to read on the light background.. just make them a bit darker (same color as the line when you hover them) make the white background opaque in the image with the fish..
Hi divers, like the site...as a dive master almost a 6month out of water! like the idea as well. BUT the picture on main page look "cheap" to me... get some good camera and make some real nice picture...also the logo with the "NEMO" could be from a real marine word...there is so much beauty down under... will have a look in a month or so how you guys doing! nice dives! dom
