Videos of Releases and other ideas
I think a very cool feature for CSDb would be to allow maintainers to add links to YouTube videos created of the release in action. Not everyone has the requisite hardware to run all the releases, and for some getting VICE set up correctly to replicate the intended effect of the release can be a challenge. Being able to link to videos on YouTube would be super awesome when you are just casually browsing the repository of releases.
I think another cool feature for releases would be an NTSC/PAL flag. This would be a searchable field so that you can easily weed out unwanted results from searches. |

because csdb is about preserving stuff and not about presenting demos to people who dont even bother to install an emulator. for that we have pouet, which is already "supported". |

On pouet the videos make sense imho, since a lot of platforms aren't widely available or fully emulated anyway. |

How about being able to upload multiple screenshots? Peeps are too lazy to create an animated GIF. Can you cope with this? |

I'd say:
only add more pictures etc if voting is shut off alltogether.
People judge demos/gfx by screenshots as is already...

@mr.Grumpy: For preservation only. How about tagging system maybe? No? Ah no... of course it's not IStockPhoto...
@mr.Enthusiastic: The current voting system makes no sense anyway so I guess adding more still images wouldn't break it.
I am gonna use the CSDB API (http://noname.c64.org/csdb/webservice/) and create an alternative CSDB is this allowed? :D
