This week brings two big announcements for the site. First, we’re super excited to launch our new site at Devsnippets.com. As the name suggests Devsnippets.com serves as a public gallery about everything has to do with design and development stages, from HTML/CSS to javascript and ajax to things like WordPress hacks.

And secondly, I’m also pleased to tell you that we are announcing Our First Launch Contest here at NOUPE.


DevSnippets Launch

Finally i was able to put the last brick in the new code snippet gallery site, Devsnippets.com.
As the name suggests, Devsnippets.com serves as a public gallery about everything has to do with design and development stages, from HTML/CSS to javascript and ajax to things like WordPress hacks.

Anybody can submit his favorite and most valuable code, design snippets and tutorials using the snippet and news submission form. Each entry will be moderated and checked for quality so each link that goes through is surely of interest and spam-free.

The site is still empty at the moment, and this week I’ll start filling it up with some amazing code snippets and then sit back and watch what you guys can do to get the ball rolling.

I’m going to be creating a little sidebar-widget here on NOUPE, where i will pull recent entries from Devsnippets.com.

For the moment, feel free to head over, bookmark the URL, add the RSS to your feed, and submit a snippet.

  3. JamieO says:

    Using FF3 when trying to submit a snippet the Post Text field is WAY too small (250 pixels). Other than that, site looks great.

  12. Cedric Dugas says:

    Heu ok, you win submitting scripts of others, way to go???

    The cash should go to de developer, not the looser just taking any script he see in your databse.

    I would have thing better of noupe.com, this is really a disappointment from a professionnal perspective, you have no respect for dev.

  13. Noupe says:

    @Cedric Dugas,
