I know its been asked before, but as the Admin team used to tell us v5 would be out in the summer, how far are you guys?

They're quite far, but things like the DLDB and tutorials aren't done, and IP seems to be taking a break. Another month or two, I suspect.

For a new image concept:
Perhaps make the site darkers and more of the SC color scheme. SC is a pretty darkly lit game, and this is the brightest SC site ive ever seen. Along with SC-themed forum icons, perhaps you could do a black/gold or some other darkish color scheme. Green seems to be a bit out of place on a site like this.

Everything should be greyscale. It takes less time to load than colorscale and its sexay!

On second thought no, don't do that. Something you should change though is that supposed post backgrounds with the 30% opacity PNG image is that it should be centered on the post, not have it alligned to the left side. This is only from screenshots that I saw that I base this suggestion.

You can align the post background, right, center, top, bottom, anywhere, and also choose whether it repeats or not.

If you do add a respectability or other system; you have to make it based on a forumla of multiple factors.  Any one simple thing is too abusable.

Not that anyone listens.  I just get proved right by waiting tongue.gif

the suggestion is in the picture.

what the?... SeN doesn't accept bmp... would it be possible for SeN v5 to accept bmp?

here is the picture in jpg. i know there is the file attachments thing, but that has a limit as to how much stuff u can attach, well with this, you wouldn't have to place pictures in the attachments and waste space.

Actually, it is. We don't allow BMPs at the moment because they're too space consuming. But in v5, we can make a built in BMP -> JPG converter.

ADDITION:
By the way, wer're not changing the layout too much. We're keeping the same green/black/white/gray color scheme. Why fix what isn't broken?

like im guna read through 440 posts.... er 441....

Map profiles, map makers like Tux and Bolt put their maps in a part of the profile that says "OMG HAUNTED HOUSE w/e" and it takes the user to the part of the dldb that has the map

explination further

it has a list of all the maps the person has made and tells you where to dl them from.

basic idea .... WTF OMG YOU CAN DL THE MAP FROM THE MAP MAKERS PROFILE SO ITS EASIER TO FIND IT!

yea....
i think i forgot something.... pm me if i forgot something smile.gif

Okay, sorry if this has been suggested before, but lately I've been seeing many EUD related questions in map assistance about what EUD's are, and how to do certain things in EUD. I think there should be a SUBforum in the Map Assistance forum, just for EUD related questions. I think it would cut down on some of the clutter, and it would be a place for people to ask EUD only questions, and experts at EUD to help others.

Okay well I just wanted to show the icons that are in the new icon thread

http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopi...st=40&p=284622&

I think there should be at least an option to change these current icons to those in the thread that DEAD posted smile.gif

How about added tutorial sections such as a section for Glitches & Tricks that can be performed in a game. I would contribut to this section & could get some help from members @ CreepColony.com. Legacy informed me that Death Knight already had an unreleashed tutorial for this. Maybe stuff could be added to it, or before its release.

Glitching is not as yet a supported feature of this website. We don't disapprove, but it has nothing to do with map making really tongue.gif

I've unbelievably read all of those pages. And now I've got feedback. But first of all.

QUOTE(Yoshi Da Sniper)
say I was Mp)Yoshi

I find this mortifyingly hilarious.

Anyways, my suggestions.

1. Making Picture icons for specific groups would seem to me, a lot more easier to seperate who belongs where. This has mostly to do with members of Clans on SEN and the SEN map making team. They don't have to be large, probably no bigger than 15x15 pixels. It'd be nice to know while browsing through if they were in a SEN-Forum-Clan or Team. (This can also include Mods and Admins of course)
2. A "Maps Created" Section in profile. When I look into someone's profile, it'd be nice to know what maps the person has on DLDB, possibly what rating they have also. Perhaps an average rating for maps too. It works the other way around in DLDB when I click on the author name and it goes to the profile, but I don't get to go back O_o.
3. AKA Log would be useful due to the "free-name change" thing. You could have a section in the profile where the person had past names and the person could manage it themselves, should they want to keep it private. But don't let them change any. They should have a log and a checkbox next to each past name saying "Keep Private".
4. Spotlight Map recognition on the DLDB. There could be a nice little section on the map description page for maps featured on Map Spotlight. It could have the little description that you guys made for it someplace and have a little icon next to the map name, so when people browse through the map list, they can also see if it's featured or not. Including a section in DLDB featuring all of the spotlight features. (Feauturing the features. I crack myself up.[/lame])
5. More File Management in the DLDB server for the submitter. I think I've made a thread in the feedback forums about this before already. Ah yes, here:
QUOTE
This might be a small thing, but I'd like to see some more capability with the editing and adding of files, more specifically the comments and feedback that come to map makers when they read the "critique" on Download pages. I understand that there are mods and admins going about and keeping an eye on things, but I'm not so sure about the things people say about maps on the DLDBs. More than necessarily I've seen quite a few immature and uncalled for comments on Download pages, and whether or not it's true, I don't see much action taking place about it. I've already PMed a few complaints to a mod about one person, but unfortunately it's becoming a knack to continuously report it. I understand that the forum is open to free speech and has its limitations, just or unjust. However, I feel something should be done. I have a few suggestions:

- Creating an option as to whether or not some comments or critique can be made with certain words. Although there ARE censors, I think it doesn't really help much. Things like: "THIS IS A PEICE OF (blank)" still gets the point across.
- Increased activity or a position to regulate DLDB and abuse. I know BeeR_KeG[eM] and a few others are already doing this, but it's only a suggestion.
- The ability for the submitter and/or author to delete comments altogether. If certain words are used in a comment (ie NOOB [and it's variants], censored words] it can be deleted by the submitter and/or author. (To keep from deleting posts that they just don't like). OR have an option to let the person decide whether or not to have comments at all?


I believe that's all for now. I'll be back later; cool1.gif
