NeoRame: I don't mean there is no interest in the services the site provides, in the last 30 days there has been over a quarter million hits to the API (268,926 to be exact) and I'm very grateful for all the contributors.
The problem seems to be noone is interested in helping me improve the site, if I could do it myself, I would.
As it stands now, if there is no help forthcoming the site will plod along as it is now, there will be occasional bug fixes, sporadic updates, people will continue to bitch and moan about things.
If we can get 1 or 2 designers on board helping with the actual site, users can be armed with all the information they need to produce better images, first time, meaning less work for the mods. The site could be redesigned to be much easier for people to actually use.
If we can get 1 or 2 developers on board bug fixes will be quicker, functionality can be improved, there are new avenues we can explore.
If we can get some people on board who aren't designers, aren't developers, but are good at producing copy, we could have regular updates on the state of things, where we are going, proper documentation, better help files.
But as I have said, doesn't appear anyone wants to help with that.
