How about a game archive so that we could download all the games/tools we could ask for?
You might need a bunch of money for download servers :lol: , but it would be a good idea. Maybe sort them by downloads, rating, genre, and author. Also, any game wishing to be put on the archive (needs a better name instead of archive, because it sounds old) would need to be approved by a moderator.

A database with a ranking system/user vote would be cool, but I don't really know how to do that?

You made a site, you can make a archive (really need a different name)!

Seriously, anyone got a better name than "Game Archive"? I'm thinking "The Game Shop" or "Gamebuino Gallery".

can u call it a shop or store if ur not selling anything?
or are we doing micropayments now?

also we can probebly doing something like that but it needs allot of moduration to work since store fronts always needs to somthing special with proper images and corect discription
also befor u can publish to this it needs to be reviewed by atleast 2 people

its a prety big deal to do a store thats all im saying

Selling program would go against the open source spirit in my opinion.
But I plan to do a sort of gallery... one day. For now, the "exhibition" part of the forum will be enough ;)
