Can you contribute? (webdesign, PHP, HTML, MySQL, Javascript/AJAX knowledge appreciated).What amazing new ideas and features do you think the new BMR should have?.Your feelings! What do you think? Do you even use the BMR in the first place? If not, how can we create a service that really meets its potential?.In order to keep this post short I now ask for: Such examples (off the top of my head) may be Blender integration through a plugin, perhaps even serverside rendering for thumbnails, tags, and better user profiles. I hope this to create a unique set of features which really appeal specifically to Blender artists. By this I mean that the code for the BMR will be open-sourced and people can contribute their own features and code to the website. I also propose a new way to approach the BMR - by the community, for the community. Better moderation - models get approved faster, no missing thumbnails, etc.Easier and much more intuitive model submission proceedure.Clearer information on licensing and terms of use of individual models.Quality control over all previously submitted models and future models.Minimal advertising and definitely no spyware.I want to completely revamp and recreate the BMR (porting over the old submissions + users of course) With it the upgrades will mean: For this I ask for the help of the community. I want to provide a much better resource specialised for Blender and its users. It does have a few gems in its content (which is added once in a while) though I have to admit that the infrastructure behind is … lacking. However the fundamental problem is that the BMR is crap. Also contrary to appearance the BMR isn’t a dead site, though the moderation queue makes it seem so. I have began an initiative to get rid of this as reported on the latest news on the site. My Christmas was interrupted by a few emails about viruses attacking people on the BMR. Hello, I’m the guy who hosted the second iteration of the BMR.
