After nearly 6 years, ScriptSpot is celebrating the launch of an entirely new user driven community for script developers. Go and visit the new site, participate in the community, contribute content and best of all – keep going back for the weekly “RE-launch” raffles!
Completely rebuilt from the ground up, the new site has been built specifically to address the needs of the community for years to come.
Check out these new features:
– User based content submission (scripts, extensions, tutorials, news). No more waiting for your script, plugin, tutorial to go live. All of you have the ability to get your content live, any time, 24/7/365.
– User blogging that pulls together your blog with all your submitted content. Example – your blog allows you to blog any new announcements or news about yourself / your submissions while making it easy for users to see what content you’ve submitted and what content has been marked as your “favorite”. The idea was to create a way for users to have their own blog and storage for their relevent content and present it to people in a very readable way.
– Additional application support – initial site rollout adds SketchUp, future additions of XSI, Maya, Lightwave, Rhino, Cinema4D, etc based on demand.
– Favorites allow users to mark any content as their “favorite” then allowing the community to see what scripts particular people find to be useful. Favorites are implemented on the individual user blog page.
– Email subscription allows users to subscribe to virtually all content, be it a script, plugin, blog and be notified via email when it is updated or commented on.
– Full comment system and content ranking. Like a script or plugin? Give it a thumbs up by clicking the “plus” sign on the voting widget. Want to leave some constructive feedback, use the comment system to contribute your thoughts!
– Forum – really, its about time!
This is a very exciting time for ScriptSpot. There is a ton of stuff planned for the future, including some great prizes which they’ll be giving away shortly!
