I am looking for feedback regarding the sites layout (yes debugging.com!).
If you had the key's to the site (err, ftp password), what would you do differently?
What do you find confusing that can be simplified?

I like the design allot, I think you just have to put some time into the Help pages, and explain how things work a little more.

if you look at the top of by the title of the question, it says 'xx views' The viewcount tracks unique IP's, but there is a bug that I have to fix.

I've always been a fan of the stack overflow layout & design, so kudo's on this one. Clean and simple are always the best IMO.
My only suggestion would be to add something like MCE to the edit box for formatting

@madhatter, yes that is on the list of things todo. at the very least I will have buttons for common formatting options but I am leaning towards tinymce.

Ok so I added a simple editor (not tinymce), just for bbcode basically. I'd like to add a preview below the textarea if I can figure that part out :)
Design is good. Please think about the beginners and new enthusiasts. How about a seperate zone where common tips, FAQs about developments(windows and web) are put subject-wise?

This is a question and answer site for programmers, not really going down the tutorial/article route.
What bengaliana tried to say but probably could not articulate is, when someone tries to learn programming he/she may find many tutorials or articles but not a single one is "interactive".
I personally found C#friends very very helpful and hope this "question and answer" site will also help us learning new things from the experts.
But if I were salman, then I'd try to cut down words in the front page and instead keep the headline of the posts simple, putting them in one line, and using some mouseover action so the inner texts will come out whenever mouse comes over on any line(is that possible in ASP.NET ?) :)

Sanjib, yes that's possible but that would be via html/css/javascript. I have thought about creating different views for the main page (minimal versus detailed view), but sorry that's not a hight priority at this point.

Salman, what I have really forgotten to write before, is, I really liked the design of your site. As I'm new to ASP.NET, I did not understand what MadHatter wrote "stack overflow layout & design", but it's a visual splendour. Best wishes.
