mythgraveyard v11
Posted: Sat Jul 02, 2011 9:00 am
i am finishing up the redesign of mything.org and could use some feedback / suggestions. i still have functionality i want to add but it's in reasonable enough shape to get an idea of what it will be like. basically the goal is to have all the information in a single place, easy to search, easier to browse in meaningful ways.
if anyone has a half hour or so to poke around the beta site and is willing to give me detailed feedback ("OMG THAT SUX" won't really help) on what works what doesn't what features you'd like to see, etc. let me know via pm.
also in order to avoid wasting anyone's time or hurting anyone's feelings, i am looking for just a few people who i feel confident can provide the kind of feedback that will help make the site better so if i don't really know you, or you hate my guts, or we get in arguments everytime we reply to each other's comments on the forums, there's no point in volunteering - not that you wouldn't necessarily have good feedback, i am just sure neither of us would enjoy the experience, so why bother? life is short, let's spend it doing things we enjoy.
if you don't have time to test, or i didn't take you up on your offer to help test, feedback and/or suggestions are still welcome: if you've ever used the mythgraveyard or any of the 'sites' at mything.org and have suggestions to make things better, or were frustrated at not being able to find something you know was there, or have something you wish was in the graveyard, feel free to post in this thread.
thanks.
if anyone is curious the main content 'areas' of mything.org are:
Articles (including readmes, reviews, guides, walkthroughs, etc)
Game mods (maps and plugins)
Applications
Dictionary (myth specific and general gaming/net terms/slang and definitions)
History (myth community/game history)
Dead Sites
Links (hardly worth mentioning anymore)
I am still working on the best way to integrate image, film(recordings), movie(mpg), and sound galleries, but those will be in the graveyard as well.
