Finally, do not ask for general feedback or rate your website here.
A note from Anthony
It is really strict how they handle promotion here. The rule that you must post projects in the weekly show and tell is very clear. It shows they want genuine technical discussion over self promotion. You have to respect that boundary if you want to earn a place in the community.
