Skin Filter

Maybe we should add a biped catagorey for the units that don't fit arnywhere else.
Or maybe we should create a section for the animals(not creeps, animals)like a sheep or a large passive looking creature. Lets not fight about how Moderaters use their powers here ok? :)

Animals in WarCraft = Critters

Mock1I think Darky wanted it that there is no bar set for how good the skin must be.


But bad skins draw out the flamers who get carried away.

Putting all of the unit skins into race catergories makes looking for them a whole lot easier. Ex: You can have all of the Human skins in one section, all of the Elf skins in another (Night Elves, Blood Elves, etc.) and so on and so forth.

Talk to him. If it were my choice I would run this site like my own only quality work stays. It isn't mine so if darky tells me to delete bad skins I will.

have a new section

there is nothing more frustrating than searching thru tonnes of skins/icons/models etc that u have seen before just to find the 1 or 2 new items in there.

:)
#22
Thats why the new submissions are first in the little thumbnail list Jsar...
#23
I think if u can sort the skins by most downloaded on top to least on bottom or even by best rating it. i also like the idea of weaponless catagory....i could use that
#24
You could add a melee and ranged skin filter or something like file size or w/ or w/o a readme file.

What I think needs to be done is the following: If possible add a sort of warning system. If people do not think that a skin is "worthy" they can click a link that will notify moderators or someone else who can review the skin unbiased. And if it is overly offensive, poorly drawn, etc. and enough people have notified moderators then it should be removed. I also like the idea of skin packs. I think one more thing should be considered. Simply removing bad skins won't solve any problems. When there is a bad skin deleted, more will follow and the flamers appear as well.

I agree with skin packs, thats a REALLY good idea.
Besides that, maybe delete skins that have a rating of
"2 1/2" or lower.
#27
my two cents... i agree with people who do want effortless skins removed. i don't really care what criteria u use, but in sea full of material, it's hard to look for what u need. i.e. i want to browse for a bloodelf skin, but theres over 400! even with broadband it takes quite a bit of time to load for the sole purpose of skimming.

a more constructive opinion to original point of thread... add a mechanical section? also... perhaps a sub section to distinguish hero and unit skins that have been created/modified/c-p would help too.

i.e.:
bloodelves
bloodelves (heroes)
human
human (heroes)
etc...
#28
Would that not add even more sections to page through?
#29
Thats brings a great point up.

When uploading a skin upload it to the correct category.

I already have enough skins to sort through with there being 400+ in the Bloodelf section.

Problem with this is that the old good skins are going to end up somewhere near the bottom because the recolors have occupied the middle space.

Mock1:
Isn't Darky28 reading this? If he isn't then is it okay for me to directly make my suggestion to him?
