I also like it. Looks realy nice and professional. maybe start <Title> from capital?
I would add some categories also, so "browse all ads" would be about the same height as "most popular ads" and "more recent ads" combined.

it will be, once people start posting ads. btw, the title of the site is supposed to be lower-case.

isn't simplicity key for modern websites? It functions well without a lot of fluff.

Do you have suggestions to make it more complicated that i could use?

There is a thing you should change. the ad gets to the most popular bu getting more view, right? well, the same person can refresh as much as he want and get it to the top. look at the site to see what i am talking about. there are two solutions: a) track IP adresses b) use cookies

It is easy... For full explanation type setcookie() on google... I'll explain in breif from my counter example:
setcookie("mycounter","www.addictads.com",time()+6 0*60*24);
setcookie actually sets te cookie... inside the function are some parameters. 1 and second are for name of the cookie, third is for how long you want to keep it on a user computer. I had my counter for once in 24 hours, i.e. if a user would come the same day, counter would stay the same, however it would change if the user would come next day. 60 - number of seconds, 60 - number of minutes, 24 - number of hours... if you multiply those together, it gives you 24 hour cookie. It is a helpful thing... just download some script and see how it works... you'll probably figure it out in less then an hour... you use php anyway...

It's not ugly. I like the simplicity!

I think having a small description about what your site does on the index page would be beneficial!

The adsense overload after you post an ad is a bit much. Maybe just the adsense on the top is good enough.

Looks much better now... I think that ad on top did not look good. One is better... As for me, I did not put any on my site until I get enough visitors. I would rather do some baner exchange now to get visitors to my site... After you have enogh people, you should put one on top...
Button looks nicer too... Works without <h3> just fine, huh?
I think you should experiment with your button though... try to make it smaller... change the color to more warm but so it would fit with the site... take a look at http://messenger.yahoo.com/ ... you can have something like their Get it now button... It looks good now, but I think after some experiments it would look better...

Yep... Looks much Better. Also, If you can create a css class for this button. I think it would that when you put your mouse on top of text there should be no underline, just color change... like a button... but its up to you too...

Sorry to say... But I don't like this website at all.. It's way too plain.. I think you should try to add more creativity into it.. And have some more contents for your site.

simple is what i'm going for. websites don't need animated gifs, swirling flash, and links everywhere. the site does what it needs to do (in my honest opinion)
