Submit scripts by email is difficult by Walter 22 on 11-04-2008 at 04:30 PM

Hi,

It' s difficult to submit scripts by email. Sometimes the Yahoo! Mail doesn' t add the attachments correctly. ^o) Why don' t you add a form for submit scripts? I think that is good and fast. ;)
(Sorry for my bad English :S)


Thanks. :)

I don't have any problems about attachments but i do think a forum is an better idea.

Most likely because it'd be spammy, need moderating, and hard for Menthix to keep track of.

For kill the spam I think there is no problems...

There could be an image verification on the form so that it couldn't be spammed.

Quite frankly that is better.

Or heck where are the developer portions of the Script/Skin DB... -dt-?

If you're having problems attaching files you could also use a service like Megaupload and include the links in your mail instead of the attachments.


dt and I were working on a total rebuild of the skis and scripts DB where you would be able to fill in forms and upload files trough a webinterface amongst a lot of other new features, but unfortunately it didn't work out.

* Menthix should start organizing something new.

I want to be in on that to give suggestions.

Mainly "approved scripter" which means certain scripters can upload files and no longer need approval. If they upload something that is "bad" they are removed from that ability and have to have everything approved :).
