Also, now that I think about it, is The Sounds Resource going to get icons for its games, too? Or is it going to remain as text (and hopefully without broken images in the search this time)?
oh please no, I actually found relief in the fact that TSOR didn't use icons...
I'm liking the site's new design, Also love the new arrangement of user profiles showing the top contributed by that user.
Love the new site! When the new Models Resource is ready to go, any chance we'll see those big preview icons finally come to use?

I have always wanted to include icons there but the current plan is for Sounds to remain completely devoid of icons.

Yes! We plan on working this into the new system so it should be ready when the control panel launches for TMR.
The forum has a very... clean feeling now. And there's a TSR section at SharkRobot?
Can I assume we'll get Fusion Fangaming back sometime after the other Resource sites?
Other sites that were hosted on our old server will be returning shortly. The priority was getting everything transferred and set up before the old server expired but we haven't forgotten about everything else.
Underneath the sheets (hehe) now it says "Submit Revision." Will revised sheets show up in front-page updates?
Oops... meant to hide that link for the time being. Oh well, it just brings you to the transfer page for now anyway (at least it should, right?).
As for your question, currently, no, they won't and there really isn't a logical way to make them. When sheets are uploaded, their ID gets added to a table linking it to an update ID of 0. When posting an update with sheets, it grabs every sheet with post ID = 0 and adds it to this new update. I could reset that ID to 0 on revision but then it would be removed from the original post. Adding another column for revisions would work but then a second revision would wipe out the first and it turns into a balancing act between convenience and consistency.
So, all of that being said, it's not likely to happen unless there is A) significant demonstrated desire (and reason) to want it and B) a way to do it efficiently and/or a compromise between what stays and what goes.

sure it would be nice to
see, but Dazz knows how much of a hassle it is to upload things as it is so I'm glad he made that decision.
Just wanted to say thanks for all of the hard work you guys have been putting into the site. Not everyone is saying it, but I'm sure we all appreciate your efforts on making the site not only more appealing to the eye, but also easier to use. The only way to go is forward~
The new site looks great! I like the addition of the important links at the top of the page. Also, I noticed that the VG Resource is set as the default theme for the forums, does that mean it is coming back with regular updates?
I hope the search function will be put in soon.
they're working on it, bro. be patient.
Yeah, there's a lot going on at once right now. New features will be added pretty regularly over the next few weeks.
