Wouldn't it be a good idea to split the tthe portal into game and movie sections. Like one half for games and one for movie. This is so you can see what you want faster!

I like the idea of separating movies and games, but not to that degree. An icon beside the name indicating if it is a movie or game would be nice.

Very nice idea dude. You should e-mail Wade about it.

Great ideas from nbh b_repay. Yeah, this is a good idea to separate movies and games, so users do not get confused and have to enter an entry to find out if it's either a game or a movie. Another idea, if possible, is that color codes for the links are used on portal entries, to separate games from movies.

Wade, Tom Fulp, or any other webmaster for N.G. should really get into this topic.

Yeah, E-mail them about it. It's pretty inconvenient for many users to have to go into an entry to read if the link says "play this game!" or "watch this movie!".

Not a bad idea...anything that helps users find what they're looking for and makes NG easier to navigate is worth looking into

Didn't someone offer this idea before, and everyone hated it?

What is sometimes annoying is when people submit movies or games, but select the wrong choices, so their movies appear as games - this happend before, didn't it? Yeah, and only when an admin is informed, this can be fixed.

icons would be nice... perhaps a little filmstrip icons for the movies and a controller for the games.

it'd make things a bit simpler. :)
