I just re-registered after noticing that my account was deleted. I'm still credited for my uploaded covers (like http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=690 ) but it links to a non-existent profile. Can that be fixed?

Why is that some users have a username link under the "Created by" as where most dont?

Depends if the Admin who created the Username in our database also added a weblink to the username. I always found it kind of unneccessary to link the name to the profile so I almost always leave the link form field blank.

I think the links would be a lot more useful if they just took you to a page for every cover by that artist.

Maybe in TCP 2.0, Snowcone?

I agree with this.

Also, on our main home page, where we have a list of the top ten or so most recent covers, I think that the header of that box should be a link to a page with a list of all the sites covers, in order with newest at the top, to oldest. I mean, whenever we have an update to our cover collection, it's always WAY more covers than just the last ten that are shown on the front page. I mean, look at the home page right now, for instance. There's 8 instances of The Ninja, and two Choplifters. That's great, but now I need to check every other console's page individually to find out if any other consoles got an update. You see what I mean? If we just had a listing page of all the latest covers, it would make searching for updates a lot easier.

Just a thought. ::)

Yes to both of you. I'm actually coding the real 2.0 version of the site as we speak. I know I've said that like 30 times over the last 3 years, but I really am this time. :)

Click Recent Covers on front page, it shows 50 most recent uploaded covers, it rarely maxes out, altough it has happened.

Yeah, whenever I click that link I always get some insane page full of RSS code instead of a viewable page. It would be great if I had an RSS reader, but I don't.

I have never had problem using that link. Not with Firefox (currently using 4 RC1) or Explorer. Not with XP, Vista or 7. I have never installed anything special to read that.

So I no clue why you can't use that. (except if your not using Windows).

Anyone else have problem with that link, or solution to his problem.

That's really odd. I guess Google Chrome on Win7/XP/OSX doesn't support RSS then. That's REALLY strange.  ???
