BowlingBallVault.com - [BETA - Over 1000 Balls!]
« on: January 01, 2010, 06:08:48 PM »
Everyone,

I have a proof of concept now available.
This website is running from my personal webserver at home, so the performance may be a little slower for you than on a real internet server.

I have registered the domain, BowlingBallVault.com

Please check out this new reviews website and let me know what you think.
Register now, and start reviewing the balls ive put up, Ive submitted 17 so far.

Please comment on the good and the bad, and let me know where I can make any improvements.

You should notice immediately this is a very updated interface compared to here and the old BBR.com


Note:
If you are interested in contributing to this project by entering ball listings please let me know by reserving a spot on here for the ball company you would like to work on. I will grant you access to add listings and give a rundown on how to do it, its VERY easy.

BowlingBallVault.com

Thank you for your interest, were a long way away from being caught up on ball entries, but with heavy lifting, many hands make light work.

It said when I registerd:

Could not instantiate mail function.


I have had a problem with Mercury mail server and spam, so its turned off for now.
Once I get the site hosted, that will go away, and verification through email will be required for registration.

I have given your ID the authority to publish, once you login, look for the new listing link in your user panel.

Thank you for your interest.

Eric,

Just letting you and everyone else know I'll have reviews of all the track products you have listed up by the end of the weekend.  Also I noticed when doing a review it has a column for number of game used.  Are we going to be able to update these reviews later because it's going to be hard for me to put how long a ball lasts(like the 715c)since I've only had the ball for a few days but I can still put a detailed review otherwise.


Thanks Dave, yes you can revise as much as you want, but cannot post more than 1 review per ball.

All,

There was an outcry for this feature, so now I have added it.
Now you can post 1 picture and 1 video (YouTube) to accompany your text review.

I also fixed an issue where some review fields were excluded from some users, but now are fully enabled, if you have written a review, please check back, there may be additional fields now available.

Below, are the review fields fully enabled for all users.
Asterisks indicate required fields.

Enjoy, let me know if you encounter any issues.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed through reviews and ball listings.
We're close to 1000 balls now, an amazing feat considering we've only been up and running in BETA for 2 weeks.

This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of many passionate bowlers.

We only have the following companies left to catch up on:

Champion
Hammer
InSite
JPF
MoRich
Revolution
Roto Grip
Sports Tec
Track

If you still havent checked us out, you're missing out on the resurrection of BBR.com in an updated and more complete format.
