Pixelpost

Ladies and Gentlemen, I am pleased to announce the arrival of our new baby! Ok, so maybe it’s not an actual “baby”, but it sure felt like it to us!

We’ve spent many months building a place where you can easily search through all of the templates, addons, and modifications, quickly, and efficiently. And we have finally finished!

So what does this mean to me?

If you are a Pixelpost user, you no longer need to browse our old website trying to find the right extension from an ugly list. The new Extend section has everything you need to find the extension of your dreams! (Tags, Search, Version Filters and Sorting!) What more could a user ask for?

What about all of the downloads that were on the old site?

No worries! All of them have been copied to the new system, and are ready for download!
(And the old URLs will auto-magically redirect to the new listing, too! So no broken links!)

But how do I add/edit my addon, template, etc. if its in this newfangled system?

First off, you no longer need a special “developer” username/password. We’ve tied the new system in with our forums, so all you need is a forum account. Easy huh?

You haven’t answered my question! HOW do I add/edit my ADDON!?!?

Oh, sorry about that, my apologies. If you want to add your own creation, or edit one of your existing monsters, you can login at any time by going to the Extend Admin. (Your stale creations from the old site will be there when you login, too!)
And while you are there, why not edit your projects and add some relevant tags to them to help people find them when they search.

But I don’t see my addon, template, mod, etc. on the list!

Well, what are you waiting for, sign in, and upload it now!

Are there any other neat little things that you clever Team Pixelpost people built?

I’m glad you asked, because there are in fact a few cool features I haven’t mentioned.
First off, RSS Feeds! Yep, you can now keep track of the latest addons, templates, etc, right from your feed reader!
You can view all the latest items, or just the addons, templates, etc.

And that’s not all! All you creators can now upload multiple versions of your project on the same listing!
What does that mean? Well, why should I explain it, where there is a great template that is using the multiple version feature, right now! See check it out here: pixelpost.org/extend/templates/simple-visions-3/

Well that’s it for now,

Take care and enjoy the new extend section!

P.S. BIG shout-outs to the whole Pixelpost Team for their efforts, and especially dwilkinsjr, for all of his efforts! We couldn’t have done it without you!
