IMHO I'd rather not have the screenshots listed in the "Newest" section, only in the left side navigation. But shorter names would be an improvement.

I support your suggestion, and also agree that screenshots shouldn't be in the newest additions list in any case. Screenshoots are not skins, and have no business appearing in that list IMHO...

I think screenshots have a place here as they are good advertisement for the skins, prorams and authors of them. It's nice to see them in action, so to speak. But I don't think they belong in the "just in" list.

Yes to limit of characters.

As to the newest section...I dunno. To some of the people who take the time to make them and feature the work of the artists here, it may seem unfair. If it were up to me...ha ha....I would

1. limit the characters in the name
2. limit the number of screenshot uploads per day by an individual
3. insist that (at least) names of all the skins used in the screen shot be listed


I have found some cool skins through the screenshots that have been around for a while and such, that I may have missed in the archives. They can be helpful and they do feature the work of a lot of artists.

I totally agree. I also agree with the number of uploads per day. I've seen many times that someone got a really nice skin up and then someone uploads 4 or 5 screenshots or a number of ANYTHING and all of the sudden that person OWNS the "This Just In" space.

I'm in agreement here.
Just leave them out of the 'This Just In' list altogether.

Screenshots are an important part of skinning....always have been...always will be.

It's the way to show what is happening/can happen with a skin and/or skinnable proggy.

I do agree, however that 'practical use' would see somewhat fewer uploads per person per day....but there are others who see 'screenshots' as an end, not a means to an end.

All that is needed is that perhaps coding is put inplace that limits a single person's screenshots to just 1 or so...in the 'this just in' section, if at all...
