(Btw.. I started to work on that site now. I guess it's best just to get it done...) |

Yes, nice...but now the commented sourcecode + tech details because that's the site in making is all about. |

The site currently looks like this:
http://bfp.c64.org/code64/
Feel free to try it out a little if you want to, but be aware that there is a lot of bugs in there so don't expect it to do what it is supposed to do yet. (Press the logo to get back to the file browser for now.. I'll change that of course.) I concentrated on the php coding for now, so the useability has to be worked on a lot too. However, at least you have some first stumbling steps to give feedback on now.. |

It looks really nice Frantic, however what I don't like about this solution is that the ability to write articles with text and code interleaved has been lost. That's why I liked the wiki approach. Of course one can write articles in the source code but it's kinda sucky. Full support for wiki articles would be nice, i.e. the complete support for bbcodes.

I have to agree with jackasser on this, why developing something new yourself when all it really takes is just installing mediawiki on a server? This surely looks nice, but forgive my rudeness, this is a typical example of design over functional use. |

Yo dudes! Thumbs up for saying your honest opinion, and I must say I agree with you both. I thought a lot about just using some Wiki system first, and perhaps I should just do that. I have not excluded that option.
I needed to learn to code some things in php and saw this as a good occasion. That's why I did it this way for now, but that doesn't really mean I couldn't just switch to some wiki system anyway. As I said, I'll look more into that.
However, no matter what solution will be there in the end, I'll do my best to have the features people want, so don't worry. |

The design is surely nice, but as it is already pointed out, a Wiki might suit this work better.
In the Wiki case, some strict guidelines for entering content will be needed, as Wikis are usually open to be abused in content organization and quality wise.

Hello again dudes..
Just to be sure.. What exactly are the features of wikis that you want? Jackasser mentioned BBcode support (which was easy to implement.. I have a working editor and parser for that here now.. not online on that site yet though). Wisdom mentioned ease to edit for anyone (and that is how it is gonna be in the end here anyway).
I looked a bit at some wiki systems but found them quite bloated for this purpose.
And again.. Design yes, but you don't need to worry that I have prio on design. Functionality is what we are after of course. |

the way i see this:
You can have several categories where a piece of code can belong to (1toN, for example : Graphic mode, NMI timing, SID, Drivecode etc etc)
Categories are maintained by a few people, to prevent chaos and to much categories with the same goal.
You can add a piece of code in both text with comment or file, and then users can give comments on that particular piece of code, add a screen shot. Add a revised version of that same piece of code for better interaction
BBcode can be handy, but not 100% obligatory for the function (bold, italic, img and url will do just fine i guess)
