4Loot

close

Brief

4Loot allows users to win Facebook Credits by searching the internet and participating in other activities. 4Loot is heavily integrated into Facebook and is one of the few places online where users can earn Facebook Credits for free.

Users log in through Facebook Connect, allowing them to leave comments and add their Facebook friends. Some ways to win Facebook credits is by searching as you would any another search engine, take daily quizzes, invite Facebook friends, or promote 4Loot. By participating in these activities, the user wins 4Loot coins which they can then spend to get Facebook Credits.

On the project, Pixels & Bits used CSS3, HTML5, Compass, SASS, Facebook Connect, and unobtrusive Javascript. The site works great in all modern browsers and Internet Explorer 7 and up.
