this bitriver?
no disrespect, but with 0 threads, 0 posts, and only 32 forum mebers total(vs misticriver's 6,200+)... bitriver seems hardly the appropriate place to get a movement like this started. i couldnt even find bitriver on google... i had to search this forum, and only turned up 2 other instances of the word.
the thing with searching is that you get a ton of crap. sifting through crap isnt fun. out of the approximately 10 page skins thread, theres maybe 2 decent skins. i feel that creating a place where the information is centralized, straightforward, and robust is much more effective than saying "search." why have an entire FAQ or video encoding section then? why make any subdivisions or distinctions at all for that matter? make it easy for the user... information architecture 101. thats why im asking the mistic river people to create a locality for people to get a wealth of information they may not have even thought to search about!
i feel that iriver skinning is something that could really just explode given the proper foundation. this is the place break ground it due to its sheer traffic and established community.
as far as calling it "custom development" i dunno. i suppose thats fine, but i dont know what other custom development there is? perhaps theres a huge chunk im missing.
