Neowin needs a member art gallery


Recommended Posts

Neowin really needs a member art gallery where members can post all their desktop screens, and all the art that they have built.. a link to their site.. a little bit about them etc...

I think that doing something like that would be really good for neowin.. and make it easy to link to art and walls etc done on neowin.. instead of linking to DA...

cheers

there is also a photography thread floating around in general afaik

I think its fine as it is, adding a gallery would probably be a bit of overkill, its better to have things in their proper place ;)

That and to host all those images would be crazy on this server...imagine the bandwidth.

i'd be nice but it would take neowin away from it's idea. neowin is still a tech site and not a graphics community like deviantart, i suppose the threads are more than enough imho.

for the links to your site, neowin has a top site list no?

Personally I think those threads still belong to their respective places. No need a special forum for that.

Were those in your favorite bookmarks? :p

I agree with Enigma. And you can add a personal photo in your profile.

Also, with a gallery, it is its own seperate place. So say for example someone makes wallpapers. But you might not like his/her works or just don't like seeing wallpaper like threads in the new posts list. If someone keeps there works in a gallery, you won't have to search thru new threads in the new posts list. It'll be in it's own area you won't ever have to bother seeing unless you choose to enter it.

Nope.. but a little research never hurt anyone ;) I knew they all existed and simple scan over the board pointed me where I needed to go. Thats one of the reasons I actualy posted all that, if you follow a logical order you'll find everything you need here at neowin (Y)

btw my bookmarks consist of Hardware Hangout and Overclocking and PC Modding ;)

Yeah it was already stated that Neowin consumes on average 40TB of data a month, these pictures would really add to that consumption. I can see your concern that you would want some way of finding the image easier, but since they are seperated into their own threads like that, it's really not that hard. On a query sense, though, it would be nice to be able to search for a particular image by a particular user, and not have to sift through the whole thread. But that's is how forums work. :D

They do, usually at devart. Why duplicate that here?

Aye, indeed.

But the point the original starter is trying to make is having one here, so yea, it's not about duplicating. It's about trying something else new here. I'm sure we could've tried making our own version that wouldn't really appear as copying someone else.

I don't see that Neowin needs an art gallery. If you need to visit one, go to deviantArt.com. I see Neowin as a Computer Support Service and not a hosting service for members. Adding features or additional services might put an strain on Neowin's staff and resources if the admins intended Neowin as a support service.

    • I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
    • You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.
    • This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn weapons and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.
