The VG Resource

Hello, I wonder if VG Ressource got an 88x31 icon.
Thanks.

Why?

Edit: Oh, I just realized you don't mean for the icons on the site but a "button" type icon to link back from elsewhere? I feel like that style of image hasn't been used in years.

What might the viability be for tMR allowing .blend as a secondary format? As in moving it from the blacklist to the greylist, as an additional option but still not allowing it to be the only option. Yes it is still a proprietary format, but it's already allowed as a secondary format for custom models. Given Blender is free and open-source, I would suspect it has a greater "market share" than most other proprietary formats among users, so it would presumably have a correspondingly large improvement in import friction and user experience.

I have no problem with that but the model staff will need to chime in before any final decision can be made there. I've long been in favor of Blender being a more utilized tool here though given that the vast majority of people actually using these models are probably doing so in Blender.

I mean I'd love for .blend to be allowed as a primary format, given how few features .obj and even .dae have compared to what modern game models are built of. But I recognise that's kind of a big leap that probably doesn't align with making models as widely accessible as possible. So one step at a time.

Yes that's what I mean an image like this one: 

Okay, that’s what I thought and yeah, there’s no current plan to make one as there’s not a ton of demand for them these days but I suppose if that changes, we can throw an official one together.

https://www.spriters-resource.com/arcade...eneration/
https://www.spriters-resource.com/arcade...antattack/
https://www.spriters-resource.com/arcade...thefuture/

These should probably be all merged, like all the Street Fighter II revisions.

Suggestion: can you bring back the badges/award systems, but for community game events?

I got some ideas for awards and/or badges:

• The Bomber award (for Super Bomberman R 2 community game events)
  
• The Sus award (for Among Us)
  

Suggestion: Please make it so you can edit revisions without having to wait for the revision to be approved first.

It would also make it less of a hassle for staff to keep approving revisions of the same sheet that was just revised...

Editing revisions isn't going to happen but coming with the next version of the site, you will be able to see and manage your own revisions (which will include canceling them without staff intervention).

I got a suggestion, why not add a few more social media links to the social sites section in the user control panel?



Cuz there are other social media platforms out there, and some of them are something that the VGR members might be using rn, such as Pinterest, and Pixilart (Pixilart is a social media platform that's all about pixel art)

Suggestion, question, idk.

Is there a chance for senior members to potentially help with the backlog? I personally would volunteer; I have time on my hands right now and repetitive tasks keeps the ADHD demons away.

We're not really adding much to the forum as it will be retired in the next version of the site. The plugin used for those social links is old and while I'm sure it's possible to add additional options to it, I just don't see much of a need to do so.

This isn't something we can automatically offer all senior members but if you, specifically, would like to help out, we'd love to have you. DM me on Discord and we'll get you set up

Maybe make a separate section for MS-DOS games?
