Make a Ship Showroom section on your website

from GalCiv2 Forums
I believe the ability to design your own ship is a big part of GC 2. It would be great if you guys can host a section where user can post their customized ships on the site and let people rated them, or even download these ships.

They have one that's been up for nearly 7 weeks. https://forums.galciv2.com/?ForumID=162&AID=104951 as well as the library for downloading ships.

Did you bother to look ANYWHERE on the site before posting?.

What kind of reply is that? Are you that rude to your friends and family as well? If you were so annoyed by the post, why didn't you just ignore it?
Everyone knows how hard it is to find anything in here. And the link you refer to is just a STICKY.

Browsing through a thread with several hundred replies is a rather painful experience, especially when most of it is people commenting on ships rather than posting their own. Of course, I want people to be able to post comments to ships they like for feedback, but the way it is implemented makes the thread horrible. I can't really blame stardock for the make shift method, because they never expected the ship designer to be so popular, but I would definitely like a ship showroom area added to the site if possible.

It could be like a gallery area for custom screenshots for many other websites. One where registered users could post comments and rank the ships being showed off. A user could then sort and search using ranking. In fact, the blog like nature of the current forum system makes this very easy to implement. It would just need to be a seperate area on its own, with some form of ranking (replacing the insightful/trolling tags?). This would be a great way to show off ships, and maybe even link it to the library so you can download your most beloved designs.

1. First sentence is true.
2. Having many new threads started asking same or redundant questions makes it harder.
3. Sticky means its at the TOP and easy to find.

I know there's a thread for user to post pictures of their ships. What I wanted is for the developer to actually host a section where we can upload ship designs alone with a pictures. It'll be more or less like an official ship gallery.
