Search? - ze1 - 06-01-2013
Where is the search function in the new layout? I can't find it for the life of me... =(
Other than that, I love the update. Great work, guys! =D

Basically the Search function update isn't quite ready yet, but it'll work much better when it's done.
RE: Search? - ze1 - 06-02-2013
Oh, I see. I'm looking forward to it!
By the way, will it be able to search for "groups" of sprites? For each game, sprites are usually organized in "groups", such as "Playable characters", "Enemies", "NPCs", "Tilesets" and so on... It would be nice if I had a way to search for something like "all bosses from SNES games" or something.

That's a rather broad search but it may be possible if I set up the tables correctly. I'll try to keep it in mind during set-up tomorrow.
RE: Search? - cherepets - 06-02-2013
So, we can't search right now?
RE: Search? - Dazz - 06-02-2013
Not at the moment, no. Sorry. But it's coming.
RE: Search? - Chesu - 06-02-2013
Ah, well that's kind of a bother. I primarily use TSR through my Firefox search plugin... Is there an ETA on when searching will be available? This month, next month, before the end of summer?
Digging the new layout, by the way, even if it is a little too pink for my tastes.
RE: Search? - Dazz - 06-02-2013
It should be either this week or next week. Can't guarantee anything.
RE: Search? - Ton - 06-02-2013
Today I learned the search bar is really popular.
RE: Search? - ze1 - 06-03-2013
Of course! There's simply way too much content here for mere browsing. It's kinda hard finding stuff sometimes when you don't even know where to start looking at. =)
RE: Search? - NotebookMaster - 06-03-2013
Oh so THAT'S where that went..
!Also I'm confused, on where to put this activation code... and also it doesn't seem like I really need it?
RE: Search? - Dazz - 06-03-2013
We automatically activated a lot of member accounts because of email issues from the site - it's possible you got the email, but no longer need the code (since you're able to post, which is all activation does).
RE: Search? - ze1 - 06-04-2013
We can search again! Yay! =D
Btw, would it be possible to refine search results by searching for sprites on specific devices (e.g.: search for "sword" sprites from SNES games)?
RE: Search? - Ton - 06-04-2013
We hope to eventually get a tagging feature for the sheets.
RE: Search? - Petie - 06-04-2013
If I can figure out an efficient way to do it, I may eventually put in an "advanced" searched that would let you drill down a bit more specifically but just getting search up and running was the initial priority and the rest of the site and the other sites come next.
