No points for downloads?

Forums: 

Hi there,

I was just wondering...
Why don't authors receive points whenever someone downloads one (or more) of their assets?
I would assume that the number of downloads might just be a good way to indicate the quality and popularity of an asset and therefore add points to your total.

Anyone?

Cheers,
Ruud.

Request to search by two characters instead of three

Forums: 

It would really help if we could use two characters in the site search function. Often I've tried to search for something like "ui", "ax", "gi" etc. and it doesn't allow it. Although there aren't a lot of two-letter words, many foreign words would be restricted. I can use google and the site's domain name to search through images, but it's not ideal.

??? Help!

Forums: 

This happened when I was editing my pixel art collection. When I clicked save this came up. Anyone have any idea what could of happened???

Hey folks,

I feel like I should chime in here briefly to say that, yes, I still exist, and I'm doing fine.  The lack of updates on my part is due to a lack of time and not a lack of inclination.

I'm trying to keep a better eye on things here, but I'm going to be intermittent at best for a while.  If there are other people here who do have both the time and inclination to work on the site code, I'd be willing to talk about that.

This one: 

 

The hovertext seems to call her "Sara."

Where is she from?  Who created her?  Has she appeared ina nything other than this site?  Etc.
