Groups!

Go to the groups page and make a group! You can choose 'Collaboration team' or 'Critique Group'. Other people can join your group. In a group, there is one discussion board that works the same way as a forum thread, and you can post files to it. This way, you an communicate with your group, and share sprites, program engines, and other files and projects. The development thread in the group would look like this:

Okay, I'm starting the new game, I'm almost done with the programing, here's what I got. JAMES234 could you finish it for me?
JSLAWTS23 posted codingengine.sb

Nice job, JSlawts23! It works like a charm now! I need someone to re-do the graphics though!
JAMES234 posted codingengineV2.sb

KingOfArt wrote:

Got your engine, complete with new graphics right here!
KingOfArt posted CodingEnginewithgraphics.sb

JSlawts23 wrote:

YES! I just tested the game! It is completely finished great job everyone!

Then they would share the project, and by author it would say "Ozzum Games" and if you click that it would link you to it's gallery.

A critique group is like a gallery, but before posting a project you have to write about [an amount set by the creator] of projects in the gallery already.

Re: Groups!

I'd really like this idea. I think it would help collaborations a lot, especially when sharing projects as a group. How would joining work? Would you have to send a request to the creator of the group, and they would have to accept? I'd also like to hear more about the critique groups.

1. The creator of the collab group could let anyone join, or have to accept them.
2. Critique groups was just another possibility for the groups template. The scratch team was already talking about how people do that with their galleries, but I just figured they might like to hear further suggestions. See my gallery, The FangClub

Okay, thanks.
