We are starting the process of crossing over the old collections system to the new database-driven DYNAMIC COLLECTION SYSTEM. This system will be replacing and will forever control the following:
THE ENTIRE GAMES SECTION
THE ENTIRE TOONS SECTION
THE ENTIRE COLLECTIONS SECTION
THE ENTIRE SERIES SECTION
The changes will be subtle. The first thing you should notice is the collections have a lot more content than before - this is because we have been updating them on the back-end for a while now without updating the static html pages on the site. From now on you should notice that more content gets categorized and the GAMES and TOONS pages have fresh content on a more regular basis. The entry page for "GENRES & SERIES" also will have more fun dynamic content, such as longer daily top lists, birthdays, etc.
You will also notice that any submission in a collection or series page will now have a link-back icon on the view page. This was a manual chore before but is now integrated into the system so that it will be consistent for all entries.
There are little touches that may be appreciated - you can now roll over an entry in a collection to see an alt tag with the rating of the submission. At the bottom of the page, you can see when the last update as, as well as a list of the top recommended submissions that aren't yet in that collection.
We have other plans that we can now implement once this system is in place, so just wait and see!
Also, thank you to all the users who have been submitting icons for older submissions. When we launch the BIRTHDAYS section, you will see those icons are being put to good use!
It should just be a few minutes before the action starts!!!
