Website feedback::Contribution download size ?

[Ramesh 0]

Hi all,

I've been using OSC for about one week and am really enjoying it !

 

Would it not be useful for website users (read those on dial-up ;)

if the filesize of the contributions was indicated next to the name ?

 

Also since most people are used to large files , the size should be given in K or MB rounded .

 

700K rather than 693,022

 

I believe it would be easier on the eye !

 

Also as web interfaces should give users a familiar experience

(which makes them easy to use), why not have an extensions link on the main page which links to the contributions ?

 

Since contributions sound like additions made by users

rather than core members (who we expect to write great plug-ins )

 

Although some non-team members will write great contributions !

 

so plug-ins = extensions = osc contributions

 

maybe a box on the home page with the following text:

 

Plug-ins [/size]

Extend the functionality of OSCommerce .

Browse the contributions made by both developers

and users of OSCommerce.

Click here to visit the contributions page

 

Regards,

Ramesh

I can't answer your other questions but, contributions available for download here are limited to 300K maximum.
