This. I think a screen shot for the preview image of an ENGINE is bad.

I disagree, a clear logo make the thing much more memorable than a screenshot. Then MidKnight's attempt tries to be both logo and screenshot, and this is where it fails: The screenshot part make the logo uncomfortably busy, the logo part cover up the screenshot. I'd say it should be logo only.

Well imo the gamemaker and torque ones are the bst from the above, but my point was that if it';s going to be a screenshot, then it needs to be a good one, and not some weird collage thing.

Edit: Made the preview thing the spring logo. I think that that is appropriate. I was working on something in photoshop, but at the end of the day, the logo fits better imo.

http://www.moddb.com/games/spring/ is still here.

for the logo in the list of engines a simple logo is obv. better than the screenshots mosaic. though the mosaic thing is quite nice otherwise but not for such small logo thing.
for the preview logo image thing it would be nice if it said RTS somewhere ie "Spring RTS Engine" instead of just "Spring Engine"

The game you are trying to view has ceased development and consequently been archived. If you are a member of this game, can demonstrate that it is being actively developed and will be able to keep this profile up to date with the latest news, images, videos and downloads, please contact us with all details and we will consider its re-activation.

What do you mean?
I think it is not ok to have a page about Spring say "The game you are trying to view has ceased development."

it should be deleted or redirect to the other page.

that is how they do things on indie/moddb.

after a while of being archived it gets deleted. It prevents people from ninja fucking other people's game profiles should the account get hacked.

but spring does have that other page which is slowly getting up to date?
so there is no way to delete that old thing? wtf.
This Star Wars 1.0 thing still seems to get ~10 downloads per day, see comments too.

I will talk to the admins about it and see what can be done.

I used the contact formular thing to send them a link to this thread and asked them to delete the old page or transfer ownership to smoth.

We already have active ownership, they don't delete things outright, they merely archive.

Dont you/they see the fail in that? The outdated Starwars mod has up to 10 downloads per day. People still download the old engine too! FAIL FAIL FAIL.

Remove the downloads, replace the desc. text with "HEY! GO HERE *link to new moddb page*"
