Aight so bryce had an idea for grouping submissions. I was going to make a scraps section anyways later on for people to upload anything they didn't want people to see but just have uploaded.
But if grouping submissions, you would already have the group Main gallery which is whatever you upload to the site by default, then there would be the scraps group for the pieces you don't like but want to upload anyways. Then we could let you make more groups to upload to. For example you had a series of paintings you want to group together and you dont want to upload those to the main gallery and you don't want to upload those to the scraps. You could create a group called something and just put those paintings in there.
Hows that sound or got any suggestions or comments?

I think it'd be an epic addition, and it sounds pretty thorough.
So would these be something like "collections"? Or maybe "albums" even?
:O

Well we're doing albums for the music section when we get that feature done. But if you want we could make the groups limited to art and groups limited to writing, and ones limited to CNTV.
Maybe like call groups collections for art, Tapes for CNTV and Books for writing, but you'd be naming them anyways. Should we make each group limited to each type or each group can have all 3 types?

Yeah yeah, that'll work. What'd be even better is maybe 4 groups, 1 exclusive to each kind of submission, then maybe a fourth one for if you had more then one kind in a group.
Overall I think it's pretty snazzy

Huh? Technically there would be a group for each types. So actually there would be 3 Main gallery groups, cause your gallery as of now is split into 3 ways already.

theo is saying like let people have like an option in a way. you have a group for each type like a group for your art, your cntv, and your articles. but like you can also have a group that you can put art, cntv, and articles in. so i guess like if you have some flash animations and some artwork that portray the same subject, you could put those together so it would be easier for people to find.

I like the idea of allowing users the option to name groups. I.e. paintings, drawings, photography, etc. If there is a group for articles, would that mean they aren't shown on the users main page?

the thing im most concerned about is that if i make a group/collection for a series of drawings, i would like it to be featured on my profile page as part of my main gallery, or at least an option to, ya know?
either way i totally dig the idea

We would have a spot on the userpage for the users groups and you would be able to pick or upload a group cover which would be shown. Then after the viewer clicks on the group cover, goes to a page that shows all the submissions for that group.
We could make a option to show the submissions in the main gallery as well.
We're also thinking about making like a top 8 for your userpage, where instead of showing the 8 latest artwork for your userpage, you will have the option of selecting your best 8, or like 6 and then show the latest 2. We'll do that for articles and cntv as well.

its sounds like a great idea but could possibly end up getting really cluttered. but i'm sure you guys can figure a layout scheme like all the groups in a column next to the standard box of the top eight or whatever.
my only suggestions are can the groups be like buttons? not just a flat image but have some camp north-esque frame that would be the same for everyone? like a cntv group would have a little tv for a frame with a user selected image in it? and the other suggestions if to not call them scraps simply because its the DA name for it. maybe call em scribbles or something.
but it all sounds great keep up the great work my brothers from other mothers
