I can't figure out a reason why not, and why it isn't already like that. :)
I'll look at it when I get some spare time. |

Done. I didn't add the icons on the front page as I think it would look a bit odd, but only on the "Latest Releases" page. (Click the "Latest Releases" on the frontpage). |

and while you're at it.. How about adding a "SELECT Submitter,AddDate FROM Releases WHERE ID={$release}" and insert it into the gray area on csdb/release/edit.php ?
please.. . |

Heh. Well. It's now also on Latest Additions.
About the "who created this entry", we don't display this on purpose.
To make it short: Why do you need this info? Because people can edit any entry not locked, the info on who created an entry is not worth much, and then you would need all edit-info as well.
We don't think displaying all this info in public is a good idea. I think this would only lead to a lot of "why did you write that? #¤%&!#" complaining in the scene, which we have sadly seen before.
Instead, if you find some crap, you should tell us, and we will trace down if there is some idiot out there, and take action.

Why?
Sometimes you want to know who created an entry / knows more about it. In the case of a locked entry you get atleast some info on who to contact...
An example could be this; Spirit
Which should be splitted into two persons, too long story to list here and since I dont have internet at home, yet, I havnt really had time to fix it..
In that case I had to mail h.o and Zyron, h.o for obvious reasons and since I knew Zyron added the spy vs spy stuff to c64hq.com and then after a while they appeared here.
But in many cases you dont know at all who to contact. Knowing this would clear up alot of errors and in the long run prevent errors that are caused by "faulty-fixing".

I needed some piece of contact info quite often in the past to confirm or refine entries and also to prevent myself adding hearsay info. In most cases I didn't enter anything then and just shrug my shoulders. Please add this info, Perff. |

okokokokokokok.....
How is this then?
But thats all you're gonna get. :)
(And remember that there are a lot of old entries where we don't have a log of who created them, so there is no info on those.) |
