Hello,\r\n\r\nXJ points her focus esspecially on the world record holders. This is understandable ofcourse, its the main reason why this site is created. But the record holders are nothing without the maps, obvious.\r\n\r\nNow my idea is to create a page with (all*) the kz maps. When you click on a map you get a page with the maker and some information. This could be done with all the maps that are recentaly got released. I bet people (mappers) could really help with this. Like the information section.\r\n\r\nAlso if this is made possible, you could create the map name in the Server1/2 menu to a link, that links to the page for that map. This could be done by sorting the name out in the database. But I bet its a easy job for a coder.\r\n\r\nIts just a nice idea for the mappers, those people give there free time to create incredible maps. So a little more attention would be nice!\r\n\r\n* Maby very old maps, like all kreedz maps dont have to be included.\r\n\r\nDiscuss!

Hello,

XJ points her focus esspecially on the world record holders. This is understandable ofcourse, its the main reason why this site is created. But the record holders are nothing without the maps, obvious.

Now my idea is to create a page with (all*) the kz maps. When you click on a map you get a page with the maker and some information. This could be done with all the maps that are recentaly got released. I bet people (mappers) could really help with this. Like the information section.

Also if this is made possible, you could create the map name in the Server1/2 menu to a link, that links to the page for that map. This could be done by sorting the name out in the database. But I bet its a easy job for a coder.

Its just a nice idea for the mappers, those people give there free time to create incredible maps. So a little more attention would be nice!

* Maby very old maps, like all kreedz maps dont have to be included.

Discuss!

Well yes, sounds good .. It's a bit empty with how it is now. It will only be a surprise what a new map looks like. Don't know if people think that's good or bad.

And for gods sake, get those dates right, so you can see what YEAR, MONTH and DATE the map was released. No one cares about what the time was when it got released, it's probably more interesting what year it was released! That's been annoying me for a very long while!

One thing you guys making suggestions gotta understand:

This is e107 CMS, there is limited space for ideas and changes in the script.

There is a big difference in what ppl want to do and what the system letting you do.

More screenshots are NOT possible.

Another date is NOT possible (system picks the date the download get added... U cant change that date unless you delete the map and add it again (then the current date will be chosen)).

However, I agree, some more information couldn't hurt (in the description for example).

What do you think could be added?
