i was thinking...why dont we have a blog where all the mods post finished portables so theres a reliable way to see all the progress of the portable community without the searching through the forum...

discuss.

yea, not to mention there's already PoD to show the same thing.

Is PoD ever updated though?

Only when people send us their stuff to add, which is very rarely. We don't have the time to do all this for you.

Because blogs are WAAAAY better than archival and acessable webpages...like PoD, or a comprehensive list...like a forum sticky...

Of course, why didn't I think of that?

What about the Wiki? Isn't there a page where you can post stuff like that?

yet still how would an outsider find all the cool things other noobs like them make? by searching through the forum or going to an easily accessible blog?

Well maybe if people submitted their portables to PoD, and if the other PoD mods would approve them so they show up on the public pages, then that would work out much better. (For some reason I can't find or get to the page to approve portables.

)

Or maybe we should have a sticky like <a href="http://benheck.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=12335">this one</a> in every forum, but with more pictures.

I'm not saying a blog thing is a bad idea, I'm just saying it's impractical. It would be just sanother thing we have to keep track of; and how many people really pay much attention to what goes on outside the fourms?

Feel free to make one. It hasn't had any edits in a week or so.
