The use of the VB6 logo can cause you problems. It's more in the abandonware field, but big corps lawyers sometimes enforce the trademarks just in case. Also, at first look I thought it was a warez site.

Anyway, I tried it and it was a form editor that is similar to the old VB6 form editor. Very nice, I still miss it when I need to make a simple form with two buttons, a textbox and some simple logic behind.

Yeah, your right, I have already been asked from someone at MS (not in an official capacity though) to take down the VB6 logo. Ok, good to hear that you found it similar to the old VB6 form editor. I guess I am on the right track then. I'll continue and try to make all the VB6 style controls in November

What is your suggestion to make it not look like a "warez" site. I was not familiar with that term until you mentioned it

Appshare is a distributed appstore which distributes apps as a HTML file. Ask me any questions you may have here.

Yep, it doesn't work on mobile yet.
