Post by: Gryzor on 13:11, 21 January 10
Hello,

So I saw this on the front page and thought, "sweeeet"! But then I downloaded and... a pdf? What for? Give use loose pics! If nothing else, one can use one of the thousands of free gallery creation tools...

I thought the very same after looking into it. A PDF... wtf? Not that I want to discredit the slavery work by collecting all that screenshots but a PDF is the utmost worst format I could have ever thought of!

Great would have been a database with all that screenshots and the according data. Then you can export from that whatever you want, a gallery, a wiki or even a PDF.

Well, the problem is, as it stands I'm not sure what its aim is... a collection of screenshots? But even then, you could have a better-made gallery with some sort of software, or even loose pics. And if you wanted something that looked better, then a DTP program would be of help...

Indeed, I myself don't want to discredit the work that went into it, but I just don't get it :D
