It's an amazing attempt at creating a product. The fact that you had no prior skill at coding makes it even more plausible.
Here are three questions I ask myself before shipping a product:
a) What problem does it solve?
b) Does it "actually" solve that problem?
c) Does the end product superimpose with the vision I had before beginning development.
Ask yourself these three questions.
The interface looks amateur and the functionality isn't obvious. Also, the user has to spend time figuring out how to go about it. Apart from that, I think it's a great personal achievement for you (with regard to your comment about the hardships you faced while rolling this out!)
Thank you so much for the very kind words and thanks for checking the website and giving me some feedback.
The general idea behind the website is to give users an opportunity to reach a big audience with their content. I already have about 400 users on the website's mailing list and I am trying to increase the number of pageviews on the home page. Let's say I can get at least 500/1000 visitors per day, this means that users posting their messages on Everythinker would know that their message - when it reaches the home page - would be read by 500/1000 users + 400 or more other users receiving the newsletter.
By providing pictures, I help users create good content.

Also, I think this is an apt moment to quote Steve Jobs. Here you go: http://cl.ly/image/0P0V2Z080C2H
