Suggestions

[Petie]

Some little things i thought might be useful:
1. In the big games like Nuga Cel or Pokemon, the page ends up being pretty heavy and slows navigation. An index with links to each sections and a "Click to expand" button for sections that have more than X sheets could help with that.

2. How about each user get a spriter reputation value depending on the amount of sheets he or she submitted with a little "+" if he or she has submitted in the last week and this would be displayed in the forums like the social links. Same for Models, Textures and sounds.  Mods could also rep up some members since some submissions takes a lot more times than others. For Dazz, it should just be written GOD  
It would make it a lot easier to know who does what and if someone has recently submitted. Downside is, its a slippery slope for the new member who might try to do a lot of sheets of lesser quality and the not-automated part of rep. management would also be an additionnal work charge for the mods.

3. We have millions and millions of sprites.... and none of them are used in the sites UI, except the mario mushroom in the background. In consoles pages like this one, Dazz's sprite is pretty nice but we could replace it by a collage of sprites from the 20-30 most popular games for that console with "SELECT A LETTER" as if it was displayed by that console. We could make a contest and then vote on the best. We have tons of ppl that are good with image editing software, that shouldnt be hard for us :

Edit
4. Like i talked about in my sudmission thread, it would save the mods some time if , when a new sections in a game is created, that section is placed in a predetermined order based on their name. 
For example: "Playable Characters" and "Pcs" should be first,
"Npcs" should be second, "Enemies" third, "Bosses" forth and "Miscellaneous" last.

I'm going to quickly go through point by point:

1. I feel like this is already easy to alleviate with the text mode option. While certainly not the same as you're suggesting, the instances where this is an issue are relatively few and far between and don't necessarily affect everyone the same way so I'm not sure implementing this is entirely necessary and I certainly wouldn't want to force it on people (the pages load just fine for me, for instance). That said, if there's enough demand for something like this, perhaps it's something that can be added in as a preference at some point.

2. This isn't going to work for the same reason direct ties between submitter and forum profiles don't work - they are two separate entities. This was an unfortunate oversight in the way the old system was coded (before I took over) and was too well established for me to change. Additionally, I'd rather not introduce additional ways to play favorites or discourage new users from contributing by setting up some sort of arbitrary barrier they feel they need to meet or exceed.

3. This idea could work if done correctly. It would take a little bit of set up and we'd need to ensure all of the images were exactly the same size but it likely wouldn't be overly difficult with enough community participation. We'd need to keep something generic (Dazz or otherwise) to fill any spot that didn't have an image made for it yet though.

4. This, on the other hand, isn't possible. There may be quite a bit of overlap with section names but not all of them apply everywhere and trying to come up with a full list of standard section names to pre-sort them would not be fun to set up or maintain. The system that creates sections would also need to be significantly overhauled given that, right now, order is calculated and sections are inserted based on the order they're created. To implement this, I'd have to re-calculate the order for every single section change during the submission process.

Suggestions are always welcome though, even if they turn out to be too difficult to implement or deemed unnecessary in the end. We obviously can't think of everything so this thread winds up being one of our most useful!
