A suggestion from Rumble.

Post by Rumble »

Hey guys.
I have just been browsing the ID section once again, this time looking for the 'cons that make the combiner team of Abominus when I see that they are all now listed alphabetically. The problem I am having is that this means that the team members no-longer precede the completed combiner set. This makes it difficult to match team members up with each other since they have no 'bigbot' reference on the component bot pages (excluding the 'centre' robot).

Anyway my suggestion is that a reference is added to the component bot and bigbot pages just to say what team they belong to/are made up of. Hopefully that way if someone has a Blastoff, for example, they will see its part of Bruiticus and then be able to determine who else belongs in the team.

Let me know what you guys think, I mean I am but a humble cassette who has no knowledge as to whether this is possible within the framework set up here.

Another helpful piece of information would be including the group name. Like terrorcons, combaticons, etc.

OK, I've taken these suggestions and made a few other changes.
These changes have been applied to the post-G1 lines only thus far. I'll be tackling G1 shortly. But is this more or less what you were wanting?

So have I! I want to clean up and polish the US regular release before we expand further, and while we're making progress, 2007 movie still stands in the way, and that's several hundred pictures!

combiners new layout

Post by johnnetee »

Oh yes!!! I'm so glad you've changed the combiners page back to something like it used to be with all the team members together. Thank you so much.

My only suggestion and i know this goes against what the overall layout of the ID site is, but the Target/Head/Powermasters in Robot mode would be an excellent addition. And I only mean the sidekick. although, having all the G1's in robot and Alt mode would be sweet too. But that's like asking you to almost double the amount photos on the site as it is...

Haha, yeah, Ben's been wanting to that for a while now...we can do it piece by piece but it would look messy unless we have at least 80% of the pics for a particular group. I'll work on the nebulons, see now many I have/need...if you can post any pics here of them in robot mode johnetee, that would be great! (white background, in focus, and well-lit)

if not, just the nebulans wouldn't be too hard a task. they're all together in little baggies on top of their boxes. I'll try to hop-to this evening, boss!
