User/Contributor Index?

This is a great site, and I am having as much fun contributing as I am downloading. Some really nice sounds!

Besides some of the other suggestions already mentioned [and agreed to], I was wondering about an Index page of all those users who have contributed material? In addition to searching for particular sounds, sometimes I am curious what sounds other people have, and wondering if specific peple have joined, etc... and it is a bit laborious to think "hmmm, i wonder if so&so has joined?", searched their name, and if not,... having to repeat the process.

It also would be nice to be able see for ourselves as the community grows and not just rely on announcing their presence on the Introductions thread [something I haven't gotten around to myself].

Just a thought.

Thats a really good idea. I

Thats a really good idea.

I totally see your point about finding other people's sounds in this way.

There are many nice ways this could be implemented, for example there could be a 'Latest contributors' list or 'Most active contributors this week' list, rather than a plain list.

I 'll definitely put that in a 'to think about' list, as we are getting ready to start working on Version II in a wekk or two.

I 'm listening to your myspace right now.. Really enjoying 'Team Awesome'.

Nice- yeah, I think there

Nice- yeah, I think there are a lot of possibilties for an Index. I think it would be good to have a plain old directory-style list of everyone who has contributed, then have a couple fun ones like you mentioned: "Most active contributors of the week", "Latest contributors", etc.

Cheers for the kudos on "Team Awesome". Glad you dig.

In the same way iT can be

In the same way iT can be cool to see
some index list sorted like:
1 - "by Member name" (by name order)
2 - "by Number of total duration" (the sum of all sound duration for each member)
3 - "by Number of upload" (number of sound uploaded here)
4 - "by Number of download" (downloaded by other people)

Good ideas. I will have to

Good ideas.

I will have to discuss with our coder about all this.

I think that 'version 2' of Soundsnap will have to start developing in early August and finish in late August/early September.

All these ideas are being documented and the best will be realised.

Thanks PCM
