Hello Milkshake!
Through the IRC, I heard, that you are maintaining http://repo.openpandora.org/
I have some feedback and suggestions for you.
As other IRC users showed interest in feedback concerning the repo as well, I decided to post this publicly.
Praise:
Your repository is well designed (both aesthetically and structurally)! Thanks for your efforts! I like it a lot!
My suggestions for improvement:
- The repo site itself should have a contact/feedback page, so that feedback is possible, without the efforts of first asking in the IRC or at the boards, whom to contact regarding the repo ;-)
- Possibility to change the password or to erase the account.
- Possibility to have a private and a public rating. Purpose: In a public rating I try to be a bit more "objective", rate the quality of the game, rather than my personal taste. A private rating would help me, to remember which games I already tested/played, and how I liked them, and my rating there would be more blunt.
- In app listings much functionality shall directly available by properly using the link space, so that you can apply actions like download, rate, etc on multiple items really quickly.
1) version number -> direct link to the PND file, starts the download right away
2) rating stars -> directly rates the game (like in a iTunes song listing) via AJAX so that no page reload occurs
3) Icon -> opens the "more info" and already opens the first screenshot (if available)
4) Everything else (the whole row including title, category, background color, etc) -> More info.
Regards, porg
