image manager suggestion Thread

i am managing 4 mods currently registered at modDB, and i have noticed that when i post a new image, the only image types there are "consept, ingame, map, player model and weapon model"

cant you guys just make that "map, in-game, render, caracter"?

or please add, as an alternative, the render option...

Generally speaking those cover any possible image. The only other one I could think of would be "Artwork".

Renders of models either go into the model category or the concept category. Scene renders are generally concept.

Not to mention, some concepts could be for weapons or vehicles, and a lot of people like to see that kind of work as well.

If Moddb removed a couple of them, then you'd obviously have someone jumping on the forums complaining that there aren't enough things covered when you post an image. Might as well have more than less.

i dont need vehicle consepts, i need vehicle RENDERS

on some mods, a space ship(only an example) can look like a weapon.
should the moderater place it then as s weapon model, people ARE gonna think its a weapon

this is only a blunt example, ofcource, but it is bound to hapen, if not allready...

Then put it under renders? I don't see your point.

As long as under the description you say it's a spaceship, then you'll be fine.

Renders should really go in concept as they are not the realistic visual interpretation of what will be in-game.

actually, they are...

Not unless they are rendered in the game engine they technically arent

but that would make an "ingame shot", and thats not what im talking about

Thats what i said thats why they should go in concepts until its in game its still only a concept .. think about it

you should make it where u can just type in what type of image its gonna be or go down to subcategories or something

thats exactly what this topic is all about! i want the "renders" option added to the subcatagory!
