The interview images could be a bit larger. It's too easy to miss/forget interesting interviews at the moment. *now checking out Havok interview, which I forgot, and after that Huntress interview, which I barely noticed*

It's a set size for all of the interview pictures on the front page. Maybe do the RSS feed for the interview page so you don't miss out.

Any chance of a best song category in the MS awards next year? Leave No Cross Unturned is still the best song I've heard all year.

Written by psykometal on 22.06.2013 at 01:04

^Correct. We use "DVD" for any video release; even all VHS releases on MS are labelled as "DVD". You can also include in the Additional info, for video releases, which all formats it is released in (i.e. "Released on DVD and Blu-ray"). And for the purposes of your Collection, there is an Additional info field where you can indicate if you bought the DVD or Blu-ray version of the release.

As for the set list idea you can either create Lists for that sort of thing, like RA suggested, or you can submit an edit to add the set list to the Additional info section of the specific event you attended (if you feel so compelled).

It just seems as such a simple fix to add those types and formats. What's the big deal?

SB should have page 1, 2, 3, to 7 and after that it should have ">>" arrow to view further pages. It helps( like me) to go back at any page you want to.

There are a limited # of pages to begin with, and how many pages you can go back is dependent on how many people have shouted in the last day or so.

Yes, but at least it should have an option to go back and see what people have shouted(especially if YOU were involved in). As in say, i'd have an interesting conversation with bunch of my buds out here and i have to leave, so there should be option to view back those pages next morning instead of viewing page one by one.

That's painful rebellion. I'm not thrusting upon to change SB's layout but it would have been "little" helpful.

What about the chance of adding the lyrics videos? I mean, nowadays many of them are to be considered videos to all intents and purposes, see Tarja's latest. We could create a new category or simply put [Lyrics] at the end of the title (es. "Never Enough [Lyrics]")
I see as a waste this non-featuring of lyrics videos.

even pemr dudes make it wrong, guy who has perms edd all whit out staff check add Paradise Lost video(what was only song , but there was video in title)
some perm guys still make it wrong accept, ignoreing caps and sources, codes (bonus, live etc) rule
many accept wrong, guy gets perms and he do it wrong
IMO we need 1000 points to get those perms, like it was when I get IMO 1000 com points total

if this option be avalible, IMo truested user like me or only staff should deal whit it

lyric videos idea

I was opposed to the idea of it long ago, when lyric videos were a new thing, but since their popularity has grown so much, and 9 times out of 10 bands release lyric videos, as opposed to the more expensive music videos, I am not really opposed to it anymore. And since they are Official Videos, it's not exactly like we're adding bootlegs here.

I'll toss the idea around upstairs and we'll see what happens.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before, but this is a tweak I would appreciate in the reviews main page. Would it be possible to add a filter to view the reviews by official reviews and guest reviews?

Just wondering ... why would that be needed? When you click on a review it tells if it's a guest reviewer or not.

Click on it, exactly the problem. If I'm not in the mood to read guest reviews I have to waste time to click into a review, scroll down to see if it's a guest review, return to the last page, click into the next review, scroll down, surprise ... it's another guest review, and repeat. Tons of other pages on the site have filters, so I don't think it would be so difficult to add one here.
