Good work .....

Hey, I added a picture of my Upright Cabinet (UncleTs Dads Arcade), but it does not show up as a thumbnail though .....  any ideas?

Also, I believe I added my jukebox to the Example pages (under "Jukebox" section) but it is not listed yet.  Does my jukebox have to be approved by Saint before it shows up?

Since that seems to be the biggest complaint. We're also culling dead links, etc.

Check it out: http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/Cocktail_cabinets

I like the ambition behind the project mentioned in this thread, but I can't see an additional site being the solution. As I go through literally hundreds of other people's dead sites, one constant has always remained...and that's Arcadecontrols.com.

I think the Wiki is the answer, personally.

Each project page has the capability of having as much detail as any site I've visited. Just sayin'

Great work  :applaud:

Added my cab ;) I agree now the Wiki is the way to go. Now if only we could make a "friendly" form for entering info in and generating a wiki page automatically. That would be nicer for alot of people I think. Is it easy to add in modules like this for the Wiki?

Any change, at this point, still needs to be added manually to the index page.
For example, to add your thumbnail, I added this line in the 'Upright Listing'. The thumbnail is showing now.

Added code:

--- Code: ---* [[image:UncleTs_Dads_Arcade.jpg|68px]] [[UncleTs Dads Arcade]]
--- End code ---
To Page: http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/Upright_cabinets

For your Jukebox, you'd need to add your title to the index as well:

Need to add code:

--- Code: ---* [[image:UncleTs_Jukebox.jpg|90px]] [[UncleTs Jukebox]]
--- End code ---
To Page: http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/Jukeboxes

Change 'UncleTs_Jukebox' to whatever your image name and page title is.


headkaze,

This is definitely something the community should look into adding, going forward.   8)
