I want constructive feedback here, even on detail level as I want this website to become perfect! The banner on the top of the site will ofcourse be changed to something a bit less psychedelic.
The goal of the site is to pay people a good chunk of the adincome % to submit original content, but it will take some time to get there. Especially since I feel that the website is not ready for "release" yet.
So just give me some brutaly honest feedback

What's the difference
What's the difference between your website and YouTube?
Are you sure that you can fight with spam? What about copyright issues? Obviously, one Japanese TV screenshot is copyrighted.
You can defend yourself just because you just put a link to YouTube?
I only see you trying to make some moeny without any innnovation. What's new? Ask yourself?

Youtube
The youtube is only temporary as I have been trying to find these videos at other places so I can upload them on my own website. This is one of the reasons I don't wanna launch it yet.
I plan on getting original content ASAP, but that will be a problem during the start phase as there is noone to submit any. The whole idea about my website is that people WILL get paid and there will be a lot of interactive stuff like contests. All in all the possibilities are endless, but in the start I have to do it step by step since I am a student without money to fund a super operational website yet
I see. Your users may be
I see. Your users may be able to get some money if everything is successful. But, already, many YouTube posters make some money by putting PayPal donation button on their blogs, which are linked from their profile pages on YouTube.
If you don't have a connection with people who love to post, getting your website working is fairly difficult. A lot of people including myself try making a community website, hoping that, some day, the website is self-sustaining. But, in reality, such cases are rare. Just like many Digg.com clones out there. You gotta be standing out so that news website like TechCruch writes about your website.

Well I do have a plan
Well I do have a plan ofcourse, orelse this would be hopeless.
I have some money stashed away for publicity once I am happy with layout and get everything up and running, and crossing my fingers that the snowball will start rolling. If not, then it's just gonna be a hobby to make some money(nothing worth mentioning, but still a little). I don't base my life around this, as I do have a job.
In addition to the updates of media, I do have a few people lined up who are willing to write articles about all those oh-interesting matters. After some simple math I have calculated that the risk ratio of the project is very low, while the possibilities are infinite. I'm a smart guy, and I love a challenge. So why not
Optimized only for 1280x1024?
It looks like your site expects visitors to have at least 1280x1024 screen resolution. From my experience, around 30% of people still uses 1024x768, and some use even smaller screens, so some big percentage of your visitors will be displeased because they will have to use horizontal scrollbar which nobody likes.

multi resolution site
Anyone have any tips on how I can implement am interface that will be nicely rendered whichever the client screen resolution??
I was thinking of a code in JS redirecting the browser to the correct resolution page for the client browser screen..
How would I integrate this kind of functionality into drupal?? Using different page-template.tpl.php files for the different resolution templates??
Anyone ever implemented or come across a similar thing??
Any suggestions??
