Gallery - is there any point?

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Gallery - is there any point?

The forum is locked. These are the original blitzbasic.com forums, kept so they can still be read. No new topics, replies or edits can be made here. To join in, head over to the Blitz3D+ forums.

The gallery does it's job. It shows new users what a wealth of programs have been created in Blitz, and several hundred screenshots of in development or finished programs is no bad advert for Blitz.

I agree the ratings are largely irrelevent, but it's to be expected when so few votes are cast. They do provide a rough way of sorting the best from the worst though.

A showcase type website is a possibility for the future, it's something we've considered for a while. It probably wouldn't be a showcase like we've had in the past, more of a portal-type site.
