SMWStuff Reloaded

[fluffypillow]

UPDATE: The site is now online at smwstuff.net!

So I was thinking about a making new content sharing site for some time now, but after the spam attack in the past few weeks I started working on it seriously.

I know there are some (mostly personal) collections on the net, but I wanted to make a more open site, where everyone could upload their stuff. I also plan some extra features, like registered users could select their favorites, then they could download all of them by one click. Uploaders can also set custom categories, eg. 'My Megaman skins', or give descriptions which may help searching.

Here's how it looks like right now:

What do you guys think?

Excellent idea! See, i miss the SMW-Stuff, we really need another sharing site. If you would like, i can share all the stuff i collected so you can put on the site.

I've made a few skins. I could upload them to the site if it gets up and running.

I have some hardware issues currently, as my less than a year old laptop died. Again.

Most part of the site works (but only skins can be uploaded currently). I'll polish it some more then put it online.
Is there some feature you would like to see?

PS: yes, I'm still working on netplay, but my replacement laptop is too slow for network development. I'll get back my old one in ~2 weeks.

can't wait until this is a thing, it looks really cool.

[fluffypillow]

All right, the site is nearly complete! I'll just add some extra love, and if everything's look nice then it will launch this weekend.

Very cool can't wait to see it.

[fluffypillow]

I'll need to do some server configuration and test if everything's working correctly, the launch is very close now

Looking forward to it. Might have to dust off the old paint program and do more recolors.

I have some issues with the domain name currently, but of course their support don't react to my mail...

[fluffypillow]

The site's now online! You can try it at www.smwstuff.net. Everything should work, and I uploaded ~100 skins which were included originally with SMW. Please report if you find any bugs or something.

PS. Registration emails will most likely land in your spam folder.

Hey, I'm liking it so far! No bugs to report.

I do think it's too bad that the little preview animation doesn't convert colors to how they would appear ingame (which would advertise the skins better), but I guess that would be quite a bit more programming work.

Only other thing is maybe we could display more than 25 skins per page? I think most people wouldn't have a hard time at all displaying 50 or more per page, the images are so cheap.

Oh oops, also, there was an error with my Black Mage skin (asgardreid_BlkMage). Can you delete that one?

[fluffypillow]

Glad you like it Next week I'll add some way to edit or delete uploads, and change the skins/page count. Meanwhile I managed to use the SMW palette on the site, the skins are now randomly colored as one of the 4 teams.
