[Attention] GGMD Categories

Today, we added categories to GGMD.

It mostly came from the idea to re-merge the album comment threads to the main forum to give a more coherent overall aspect.

The categories are pretty self-explanatory, but let's have a rundown anyway.



For, hum, VGM related News. X compose will compose Y upcoming game. Z album to be released on ... etc ...



Basically is for anything that used to belong to album comment. News threads about upcoming albums can turn into Album comment ones if people actually start discussing the music in it when it's released.



For what used to belong to the Request VGM Info sticky thread and anything else that, well, request something. Requests for files still belong to the Audio Request forum.



Anything Song of the Week related.

Thoughts ? The system isnt carved in stone or anything. We can actually discuss it and improve it with time.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I really don't think we need that many, but this is just for reference. Maybe there's something here you could add to the current set.

Additional Spam:
Oh, also, I can make a custom SotW button using the site logo if you give me the template.

The only problem is that, given the activity, it could actually visually complicate things instead of the opposite. =p

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Well, like I said in the past, I'd be more for something looking like the RSS or XHTML compliant buttons you see here and there, but heh, I dunno. What do people say in the other forums ?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
