HAY GUYS

niki · 09:52 AM

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.

Nice job. I always pictured SoTW as either a fading orange or sky blue color,
but that's like the tiniest bickering thing ever.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

This looks good. For the record, I suggested the following back in May:

Song of the Week, Event, Community, Concert, Upcoming Music, Composer Discussion, Playlist, Purchases, Emulation, Ripping, Downloads, Question, General Discussion

EXAMPLES:

Spoiler:

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.

You could make all of them

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

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

I was speaking idiomatically.

Well, as far as visuals are concerned I hope the current buttons are not final. Their flashy/shiny style and the inconsistent use of font weights/sizes in them clashes with the otherwise flat and clean/reserved look of the rest of the board imo.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

***Bigblah*** · Local time: Oct 14, 2007, 05:05 AM

Maybe we should rethink the dimensions of the entire button set

FELIPE NO

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 ?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Kaleb.G · 02:14 PM

I think the button dimensions are fine. Maybe they could be a little smaller, but each thread row takes up two lines of text anyway, so the current buttons fill out the space well.

I know! But it would be nice to have the template you guys currently use for buttons so I could make them consistent looking.

General category removed ~

I think these are fine and will do us just dandy. It's not like there's enough shit in GGMD that we would get confused if we didn't have them anyhow.

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