Better, :). I like the site. The images make it much more appealing to surf for tutorials. I am curious, what do you do if someone submits a tutorial and they cannot provide an image?

Well as far as submitting a tutorial the user only has to enter a url. All the image creating and tagging is done by my friend and I. Slow process but I figured this is the best way to keep things honest.

Very nice images. What would you do if/when your site becomes very, very popular and receives 30-40 submissions a day?

Well that would be awesome. Ill figure something out if it comes to that. Maybe make a deal with some tutorial websites to where they can post their own and such. Also might let users add the title and tags them self, if I have to.

are you making sure you have the original authors permission to put their tutorial on your site?

I don't think that is an issue, because I don't paste the text on the tutorial directly. I link to their site, so if anything im benefiting them.

I don't think it would be, since you are linking to them. Feel free to add all the tutorials on CodeCall. :)

Wow looks nice. Seems to be quite a bit on RoR which is interesting. If it really gets popular, you would probably benefit from creating different categories like "Ruby on rails" and "PHP" to better organize it. Otherwise navigating would be rather difficult.
I like your web site. :)

I was considering have multiple categories but i think the tag cloud serves that purpose right now. And thanks for the comments.

Sure, but the tag cloud could get really messy? Wouldn't it be easy to have multiple categories? It would be very hard to navigate and might turn users away.

Yeah it could. There is already one up:
WeLoveTutorials.com Tag cloud
My goal is to really make the search the focal point of the site. I have ideas to make the search better but haven't fully figured it out yet. (see my php thread on it)
Edit:
Oh and I started to add some of the tutorials from codecall to the to-add-list. I have like 220 or so tutorials that need tagged and images made so it might be a while. But I can skip around ;)
