In the current setup, the sites take up 85% of your available screen width and cap out at 1860px (which is enough to fit exactly 10 sheet icons across in one row). You can mix and match them to tailor the experience to your tastes a bit though. For instance, if you want the old width back, you'd set width to 980px and max-width to either default or anything larger than 980px. Or, if you have a big screen and want it to take up 85% and not stop at 1860px, set the max-width to 85% and leave width at default (or set both to the same percentage if you want a larger or smaller area).

Like I said, this was more just about being a fun experiment for me but hopefully, at least a couple of you find it useful. Just keep in mind that it only applies if your screen width is already 1200px or greater - the rest of the responsive layout features kick in at under 1200 as usual.]]> edit profile (which is available from the user box or mobile navigation menu from all sites) and you should see the new "Width Override" option.

As of today though, members can now see a list of just the names of pending submissions to a given game. For approved games, you can see it both in the footer info box of the game's page and on the submission form to add new content to the game. For pending games, since there is no actual game page yet, this new list is only available from the submission form. In both cases, it's hidden by default and can be toggled on and off so as not to clutter the page if there are a ton of pending submissions.

Hopefully this compromise satisfies those of you who want this feature to make sure they're only ripping new content. Honestly, I'm not sure why I didn't do this particular implementation sooner.

As a quick side note, both the site's CSS and JavaScript were updated to implement this so a hard refresh or a cache clear will likely be needed to get it to work properly. If anyone has any questions or feedback, please post them here!]]>

For some background info, icons have traditionally been optional as there are some people who might not have the tools to make them properly. This was more relevant before the switch to our new icon style but still plays a part for those unable to or uncomfortable with working on transparent images. In the case of models, there are many times where it may be possible to extract a model without ever requiring 3D software which would mean that those without access to modeling software could still submit to the site even if they're unable to render a preview. We've always wanted to keep the submission process as simple as possible to encourage as many people as possible to submit and not wind up scaring people off with unnecessary requirements.

All of that said, we are often asked why it takes so long to approve new submissions and one of the major sources of delay is a lack of icons. While this is mostly true for models (which take much more time to create icons for, especially when submitted in bulk), it definitely also applies to sprites and textures where the extra time spent creating icons adds up over hundreds of submissions and really slows things down.

With all of this in mind, I just made a minor change to our submission queues. Starting today, all pending submissions will be sorted so that those with icons appear first. As always, staff is welcome to process those submissions in whatever order they choose but a visual priority will now be given to complete submissions in an effort to encourage those of you who can make icons to do so. On tMR, complete submissions will be listed first, then those with one or the other, and finally those with no icons at all and this obviously doesn't affect tSoR at all. The submission process itself will remain unchanged though - this is only for how the staff sees pending submissions.

If anyone has any questions or concerns, you're welcome to voice them here. Otherwise, thank you all for your continued support and have a great day!]]>

I just wanted to get some feedback from you regarding the livestreams we post up on the front page of tSR. Our original intention was to make it a regularly scheduled stream, however lately we've come to terms with the limited time that we have to create content. As a result, we're trying to come up with a more solid solution with streams that will work for everyone.

We've currently settled on "specials" and streaming whenever a new Region Locked episode goes live.

So when we stream, we usually post the stream to the front page of all of the sites. However, I'm not sure we should continue with the direction the streams have gone in. What do you guys think? Should we just include the small stamp on the bottom corner to let you know we're live so that you can check it out if you really want to?]]>
