My humble suggestion would be:
Coustom Mansion Category:
# Download mansions
# Talk
# Art
# Designing
# Free Up and Downloading
# A seperate category for the mansions with many posts.
# A seperate category for mansions with custom graphics

And another suggestion and a request:
The Sub forum where you store the data for the downloads - please put that somewhere else if possible. It irritates me since this forum started and I still haven't gotten used to it
In many forums there is an administrator section where stuff like that is stored - at the bottom of the forum where it doesn't bother regular visitors.
Just my little input to that

I don't use the CM's sub-forum. It is just in the way so to speak. On my way to the Talk thread or to the Download thread I often click on the CM's forum.
My suggestion was to put it into a new category for Admins only on the bottom of the forum, so it would be out of the way. That was all.

OK we will look into this but no promises!

I really like to see suggestions coming from our forummembers about our boards.Let us say that I am more or less responsable for the current construction of the MM-forums, but I have done it in a way by listening to everybody. And I encouraged that with this board: Forums Suggestions.
To answer a few questions from frost.
I was hoping that it was possible to make the board
CMs Sub-Foruminvisible. And yes, it WAS possible to hide it, but then the forummembers couldn't download the custom mansions anymore. So I was forced to place it somewhere. And I did it just below the Lists.
Of course we can make an Admin-category at the bottom. But for the same reason not invisible. Leaves the question: since we can't hide that board, is it important where it is?

Just what I suspected
Re: More categories? - aquaMat - 03-09-2007

Below all the other categories - that was my suggestion.

If it is an admin category then only admins have access to it. Which means you don't. Which means you cannot download the custom mansions.

I think there is a misunderstanding here.
brell:
In terms of the Forum Software an Admin-board is always hidden. And other forummembers than the administrators don't have access.
frost:
Create a (new) board as deep as possible on the boards where the administrators place their stuff, like the real downloadpages. With other words: move the current CMs Sub-Forum down to the bottom of the Forums.
And to answer that question. We will keep it in mind. When we have other reasons to rearrange the boards, we will think of it.

Yes, that is what I said.
