New Features for the Themesite

(1/10) > >>

Domonoky:
Hello,

i am currently working a bit on the themesite. And i want to collect ideas on what could be improved on our themepage.

So if you as a user or theme creator have ideas on how to improve the themepage, please post them here, and if i like it, i might implement it :-)

EDIT:
Already done things:
- create a way to update themes for themecreators
- download counters
- userratings
- sorting by..
- bugfixes
- ability to view themes, not divided by targets.
- button to report a theme to admins for review.
- list theme features (rwps, font, etc ): Zipcontent is now listed on themedetail page.
- multiple screenshots
- copy download counter on update  (done by Kugel)

Already suggested things which i like (no garanties that i will work on them) :-) :
- grouping of very similar themes
- support for remote themes. Ie themes which only contain remote things, to make sharing remote skin files easier between targets.
- tags
- support for theme ressources
- somehow make greyscale screenshots possible for color themes on grey targets
- better upload page, which also tells for which targets a theme will be shown, and other infos.

seani:
A few things spring to mind:

1. One main image, as the large version of multiple thumbnails, so that mouseover or clicking on the thumbnail alters the main image. An an arbitrary number of thumbnails in addition to the mandatory screenshot.

2. The ability to add multiple descriptive tags to a theme in the manner of YouTube categorisation (or the old winamp skins) and allow searching / browsing on those tags, e.g. "simple", "modern", "retro", "high contrast"

3. Ability to add links to related / derived / parent themes.

4. Ability for users to "watch" themes at the player level and receive notifications of additions or amendments.

I would like to see a function that combines themes into one entry, for themes which has just altered colours. So that it is less clutter for one and the same theme with just different colours, taking up as many entries currently as alternate colourversions are from it.

Ste-:
I would also second perfectdeugs idea.
For multiple themepacks. with just different backdrops in the wps cluttering up the current theme site.

An option for another wps image upload so you can show the wps with and without album art. just as an optional aside as some themes can be quite different without album art. so you can show, wps with aa, wps without aa and then the menu screenshot aswell.
