The more the better, by the way I already put you and your map like two or three weeks ago so you won't have to do everything from 0. But I'm sure you can make it look a lot better.

I forgot to tell you guys that about 3 or 4 days ago I got access to Scmapdb.com which means I can more easily replicated pages to work as well for ocmapdb. Even though that is not 100% true as some of these pages require some editing of code which is a little confusing to me, I still have gotten a couple more things done.

* Live tag cloud added: http://ocmapdb.wikidot.com/map-tag-cloud
* Detailed view buttons added on bottom left of main page
* Texture section has been added but is broken, gotta make it work along with hl2 and not be asking for wads.
* Tutorials section is up, cold has helped me and fixed the background issue and has added a "Last edited" thing from scmapdb as well.
* Added the todo list: http://ocmapdb.wikidot.com/contribute:todo
* Map pack section added .
* Anonymous editing privileges have been revoked because of potential abuse.
* A bunch of other various additions and fixes to the database and what not.

Anyways that's all I got for now, more to be done later on.

Cold was being nice, he updated the site for me while I was taking my finals.

Update as of June 13, 2011

Updated donate button and setup a dedicated paypal account specifically for OCMapDB to avoid confusion. (it said Sven Co-op Map DB before).
Fixed missing custom forum theme on the main forum categories page.
Map review system now fully functional.
Fixed some category permissions.
Put a banner ad at the top. (Logged in users don't see ads.)

Yeah I noticed earlier.

I still have a few maps to add to the site.

Many things I want to do for oc in terms of tutorials etc, needs to be done before steam works, Also I'm considering mapadding some SP campaigns.

I could set up a subdomain like mapdb.obsidianconflict.net, if that's possible with your host.

Thanks for the subdomain W0rf0x. It's pretty neat to have obsidianconflict.net in the site's URL.

http://mapdb.obsidianconflict.net :)

Also, any old links to the previous domain will continue to work forever.

Update news:
* Added popular category buttons on front page ( more will be added as more categories get popular)
* If you try to search for something, all tags will be shown below for people who don't know what they are looking for.
* Edited a couple of templates which had some spelling errors/ code errors.
* Added new tags defense, and background.

That's all for now, doesn't sound like much but getting the categories with pictures took me 3 hours to figure out how to do!

Planned features: Texture section, Prefab section. I've tried multiple times and do not know how to create brand new pages such as these, so I will have to wait for cold or practice some more. Till then enjoy the changes!

Noticed bugs

Awesome, glad you are going to start helping out again! Since you stopped there have been barley any map pages made, it's hard for me to update the site while adding more maps :).
