Sorry guys, after talking with Chorpeac, we only need "0" more BETA testers, then thawillb> be it. So say if you want to BETA test!

Hey guys, well me and Chorpeac have been working really hard to try and get NeoRequest? into the big stages. We think its coming together, but its taking a while, we still have problems but at the moment its not looking too bad. Chorpeac has been constantly working on the c(even while working! Terrible.)And I, have just been doing tons of graphics and trying to all get them to fit together nicely and get the to become Transparent! Nast:devil:vil: But now we have been able to get to work and we have managed to get it to the stage where it all works and it looks good. So below are the Screenshots of NeoRequest?.

56k warning, these images are large, so they may take a while to load, be warned.[/i]d.NeoRequest? Login PagePage

Right all 14 BETA testers should have PM's. Sorry about the second lot in a Quote box, damn PM system. :angry: As I said I will get back to you all as soon as possible.

If as many people read this, BETA testers I mean, could you all just say that you have recieved the PM sucessfully as I know. I get worried about these things. :D

Right, we have now closed the BETA testing employment. We have 15 people doing the full BETA testing of NeoRequest. These are all of our great BETA testers. Thank you. Also BETA testers, if anyone else on the team can just say they recieved the PM. We have just had StOrM contact me, he will also be joining that creates the full 15. Applications for BETA testing is now officially closed. But keep your ideas and comments coming.

I'm wondering if it's possible (instead of having a complex site for request) to make NeoRequest some kind of topic tracker? Here's how I see it works..

When you make a new request, what it would do, is actually create a new thread on the forums (or a new post in a dedicated thread) listed as your NW username, but that thread/post would have been created from a template. Neorequest only need to handle the template form, and have a tracking database, which would report when new replies are made to the thread into your NeoRequest account. I know this sounds more complex, but the way I see it, it would actually require less work and save ressources.

On another note, I suggest you have some kind of pay-out field for those who'd like to offer a compensation for the work, could be anything from money to hosting, but would help to motivate some.

I also suggest that workdesk list previous works and enables users to rate and add a comment, in the style of ebay rating system. Thought, the artists must not be ranked, since it wouldn't be fair for everyone and would scare newer artists.

Anyway, if this sounds even only a tad interesting just PM me and I'll try to be more descriptive about what I mean and how it could be implemented.

I'm really looking forward to this, it has great potential :)

Keep it up!

Thanks for the interesting input JBO. One thing that stands out as a potential addition to the system is the rating idea. I can see how that could be a nice gratifying feeling for an artist. Although, rating an artists work would imply a rating on the artist, since it is the artist's work. But nonetheless, it could come in handy.

The workdesk does already show all the completed work the person logged in has done, but it does not currently have the ability to lookup an artists work solely. To find an artists work at the moment, you would have to find a request an artist posted work for. This could be easily done though, but it would probably be better to be a search function, since the workdesk is not what that kind of information is intended for.

I think the compensation part is probably better left out of the system for now. I think this would have to be handled outside the application anyway.

Again, this is in beta stages, so there is a little room for movement. I want to get this out to you folks so you can give us some reaction from a live system. So you can see how it works. :)

No problem, as you can see, I'm very interested in this project.

One thing I should have been clearer about is the rating system. The way I'm seeing this is less of a rating than a feedback system. Only the people for which a work has been executed would have the option to comment on Quality/Rapidity of service. Something very simple like "Very courteous and all the guidelines were met! A++" could give a good idea on who you're planning to work with.

The compasention part was really only optional. I thought of it because lately I've been noticing more and more people offering 10-100$ for professional work. I know it could spell like potential disaster. People would be less likely to work for free if there is a majority of people offering something in return. But that brings another concept in, there could two category of work-type; Regular or Professional. Guidelines, that would help user identify what's reasonnable and what's not for a Regular project, could be set.

Another idea would be collaborative projects. I am thinking about websites right now, but I'm sure it could be applied to other projects. Let's say someone wants a moderate-to-large layout. Artists could team up to achieve the project; coding, branding and design could be splitted among team members. These team could be pre-defined or requester-choosen. Though this seem rather complex, this is a good way of keeping non-Professionnal, moderate-to-large projects, free.

Keep in mind these are only ideas I'm shooting up. I know some of these sounds a little way off what you had in mind, but these are features I see that could unleash the potential, and preparing for scalabality would be wise IMO. I am not aware of any website which has been purposely made to connect people who seeks design services and those who can provide it. That sound like a perfect oppotunity to set up one.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models

      By zikalify · Posted

      UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      By WrongHead™ · Posted

      If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
