Site idea!

[olofmoleman]

I have an idea for wc3sear.ch

When you link an icon to one of your models, then a thumbnail becomes vissible in the page where you can download the model, but what if also a link to the model from the icon, that way, newbies can find the models for the icons better and mods can purge the icon section better because they can immidiatly see if the icon is linked to a model in the models section.
the only problem is that probably only Darky can implement this idea.. :roll:

It'd be nice if the icon was bundled with the model download. Hence you upload the icon when you upload the model.

Orpheus agrees.

Thats a very good idea. Same should apply for the skins section.

do you need a tissue?

 

[Kimbo]

well its cough* lol, i reckon thats a good idea, but we really need model packs. they have icon packs but not model packs.

 

[DeadDogNoGoWoof]

model packs are easy. upload lotsa attached models with your main file.

Over the time I have made something like 40-60 doodads and destructibles. There's no way I'm going to upload them one by one like that. Not to mention the insane number of textures that the script will probably ask to upload, even if none of them use custom textures.

 

[DeadDogNoGoWoof]

yeah....another thing darky needs to get to...my advice, dont upload model packs for the time being.

The Idea was good: When you link an icon to one of your models, then a thumbnail becomes vissible in the page where you can download the model, but what if also a link to the model from the icon, that way, newbies can find the models for the icons better and mods can purge the icon section better because they can immidiatly see if the icon is linked to a model in the models section.

 

[olofmoleman]

Doodi, why did you make an almost exact copy of my post? or don't you know how to insert a quote or something?

 

[Ex-AnGel]

Gogogo with da banana ! =))\

Please ignore this post, it is spam. -oz02

 

[Kimbo]

well they idea is very good...and well why did u spam?
anyway..the icons section takes ages to load...so it would b better to go at the models to get the icon.

 

[VGsatomi]

you mean it isnt already like that?

I believe he means putting them in WITH the model when you download it, not simple uploading and assinging a seperate icon. That way, it frees up the assigned icon problem and allows the icon section to display specifically stand-alone icons and spares the users having to download assigned icons seperatly.

[Kimbo]

well, another nice thing would b like goin to the models section, and there are also a list of alterative skins and icons. and u can tick them of to dl along with the model.

I assume you mean me when you say "I believe he means"

But my original idea wasn't modelpacks with icons included in them, but sort of assigning models to th icons, instead of just assigning icons to the models.

 

[Kimbo]

oh, well this suggestion veryis good, now go make more plz plz...

 

[olofmoleman]

oh, well this suggestion veryis good, now go make more plz plz...

make more? make what? suggestions?

 

[Kimbo]

umm...ya...just.um more. i cant think of any.

 

[ben_xuereb]

yeah it would be a good idea saves you time for looking for a spiecific modle if your looking at icons to import

this would be a realy great idea
i thought since VG was an admin he could do the same things as darky

 

[olofmoleman]

it would be great if this idea would be implememented, butI don't know if VG has the powers to do that, if he doesn't I think we can wait a loooong time before Darky puts this idea in the site.

 

[ben_xuereb]

yeah i think my sugestion was taken seriously BOOYA theres some unsorted catagory now

 

[olofmoleman]

No, I think that was made because of my "Shame on you modelers", but it doesn't really matter though.

 

[ben_xuereb]

lol ok i just red it and yeah more likely from that topic

 

[DeadDogNoGoWoof]

no olof, it wasnt because of either of these topics. we discussed it elsewhere a bit before you. but either way, its a good idea that got implemented.

 

[olofmoleman]

And now for attaching models to icons...
