Sat Mar 19, 22 3:18 pm New ikitesurf Classifieds Replacement Website |
|
|
Hey There,
My name is Mike and I've put some time/money into creating a new Buy/Sell classifieds website http://WeLikeItWindy.com for the wind sport community. It is Free to use, I just wanted to try and create an even better place to buy/sell our gear and support our wind sport community.
Please visit the site and post your gear and spread the word. This website will not work if we don't get a lot of users to come and post gear to buy/sell.
Email me through the website or post on the WeLikeItWindy forum with any comments/questions/recommendations/improvements. The site is very new and will need some future updates/changes to make it better and I'd love your help and motivation in doing so.
WeLikeItWindy is for us, the wind sport community, help me make it something that adds value by spreading the word.
Thanks!
Mike |

The site doesn't have a ton of features, but I feel one that could be helpful for a regional community like this is the Map feature, which shows users general location and what they have listed for sale. Sort of like an online classifieds / craigslist hybrid... |

Ya'll rock... appreciate you. As they said, check the spam for those first emails.
OK, time to email craigslist posters... this is not a sexy website to get off the ground, I appreciate your help!

The site works fine for me but several people have commented something similar to this

Thanks for creating the website, with the shutting down of ikitesurf, there is definitely a need.
The welikeitwindy.com website does not load using firefox (v 100.0) using a mac.
Both Chrome and Safari appear to load fine.
With ikitesurf, I like the database structure where you could filter by brand. I also like that you could filter by price on ikitesurf.
I liked how you could send a message to the seller through ikitesurf. With welikeitwindy.com, it looks like contact information (phone#, address, etc) entered is available for any spammer to see. It would be nice if sold items were promptly deleted. |

Thank you, Mike. It's a nice site and easy to use. I can see this catching on.
I agree with sfbomber about phone numbers and addresses being visible to the public.
It looks like all photos get cropped to square shape. Is it possible to keep the original shape? The image viewer didn't work for me in Chrome but hopefully it worked for other people. |
