TF2 Mod Emporium - Website WIP - Games

Would something like this suffice? [img]http://files.uploadffs.com/d/b/55e7bcb3/nav.png[/img] [editline]02:41PM[/editline] I'll eventually get around to adding a search box, which will include searchable by author.

Although, with three layers of text links like that, you're creating a rather out of place block in your layout. You'll need to find some way to bring those text links out and emphasize them. Right now they just feel tossed in at the last minute.

Here's my idea: I have a drop-down for type of mod, a drop-down for class (if applicable), a drop-down for recent/most-downloaded/etc., and two small boxes for either grid view or list view.

Maybe even have special sections for sounds, too. [B]Also, mirrors are alternate downloads[/B].[/QUOTE] I know what mirrors are, but what does "mirror bitches" mean? [editline]04:35PM[/editline] One more thing: is it acceptable to limit the author's name in the submission form to 20 characters? That's the comfortable limit of the little pop-up overlay on each image.

[QUOTE=tankkiller;19803636]Is there anywhere I can download that skin? It looks awesome.[/QUOTE] I don't have the files up yet. I still have to do HUD changes and the like and I've been getting sidetracked. I have the entire team skinned but may go back and tweak. So to tide people over, here's the red team as done by me.

I sent an email to Robin, we'll see how it goes. The dilemma is, my website needs to be popular to have companies who would trade ad space for upload space (see: FPSB). [editline]01:16AM[/editline] Wait, scratch that, we'd have enough space for 300 mods per GB of server space. [editline]02:19AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Keychain;19793627]There should be mods who review skins before they are posted publicly. I don't want this site to end up like FPSB.[/QUOTE] Would anyone be willing to mod?

[editline]02:19AM[/editline] Would anyone be willing to mod?[/QUOTE] I'd be willing to mod, also if you add a mirroring system, it would be a good idea to add a way so that we can limit the amount of bandwidth a mirror can provide per day/week/month.

[QUOTE=Talishmar;19798129]I want particles category. Or would those go in skins?[/QUOTE] That'll be under misc. It's hats, skins, sounds, misc., and all (for broader sorting). I do appreciate the feedback and I'm willing to modify my current plans to fit the general consensus. Keep it coming.

Maps will not be included, they're too large. [editline]05:38PM[/editline] And, if anyone cares, here's a small update demonstrating the functionality of the image labels (also a WIP upload page): [URL]http://files.uploadffs.com/d/e/e38ced80/TF2_Mod_Emporium.rar[/URL]

Nice site, lets hope valve like it, oh, and i'd be willing to mod if you want.

Hey guys, I'm reserving a domain now. What's a good address? I want a .com or .net. - tf2mods is taken - tf2me is available - tf2emp is available - tf2emporium is taken - tf2modemporium is available, but a bit long

tf2hats.com

[QUOTE=Galago;19830523] - tf2me is available - tf2emp is available - tf2modemporium is available, but a bit long[/QUOTE] tf2emp sounds good

[QUOTE=Zwolf11;19830778]tf2hats.com[/QUOTE] It's not hat-restrictive, so no.

i liked the long one

[QUOTE=NeoDement;19832254]i liked the long one[/QUOTE] You probably could shorten it down to something slightly easier to say.

I keep reading "tf2modemporium" as "tf2 modem porium."

I'd download, but I don't really like the Heavy tattoo, or whatever it is.

The current selection is tf2emp.com, and is going to stay like that unless I change it within 2 days. Is this acceptable?

Yes that sounds good, and I would like to mod if possible.

I would [highlight]LOVE[/highlight] to mod. Please. :love: [editline]12:53AM[/editline] and the long one is nice

Since I fail at modeling and soon my photoshop skills are to become inert I must learn to operate my programs.

why not tf2mods? tf2emp is kind of...Eh.

Its taken dummy.

Consult Royzo or Daimao for more information.

[QUOTE=AyesDyef;19837596]Hehehe, I already know why tf2emporium is taken. Consult Royzo or Daimao for more information.[/QUOTE] Then surely Royzo or Daimao could give Galago the domain.. Cause he's basically making it for them anyway.

I guess Robin likes my stuff so far. I email him, and he said he would put a post on the blog about it if I were to get some steady traffic going. Things are looking good. Image for skeptics (censored for stalkers): [IMG]http://files.uploadffs.com/d/1/e9331f4a/Robin_Email.png[/IMG] [editline]04:32PM[/editline] Oh, and if Daimao/Royzo would be willing to hand over tf2emporium.com, I'd be quite grateful.

Just an FYI for you guys; the site will be under construction but open for the public to take a peek at. Check out tf2emp.com (at the moment, nothing).
