Re: News image bug on front page
The difference is in the session handling. Can you see any screenshots on the games or screenshots pages?

Re: Lovecraftian Games on the IF Archive
Funny - PoI is special to me, too, because it's the last Adventure game I bought right when it came out. I did enjoy it to a certain extent, but those rooms later in the game which are completely empty but for one single item really got on my nerves. Clicking on the only item in sight is not a ...

Re: Lovecraftian Games on the IF Archive
I have reviews of both games on my site. Short version: Shadow of the Comet is absolutely excellent in my opinion, Prisoner of Ice is disappointingly shallow.

Re: New site - bug reports
I've put some character mappings into the code. The most common special characters should now be sorted as expected.

Re: Idea: browse for "unsolved"
"Unsolved" checkbox is now on the advanced search form. Of course, if you check it and select "Solution" in the box above at the same time, you'll get zero results

Re: New site - bug reports
I could try a workaround on database level; that would be fairly inexpensive. I'm not sure how this particular SQL server will react to the attempt, though. I'll just give it a try.

Re: New site - bug reports
Well... not necessarily. I see what you mean, but computers think differently. Manual re-sorting is an expensive operation - how important is that?

Re: Clarification: Sypnosis and uploaded files
I can only answer the last one about the tooltip: Please include system information for the screenshots. The number in front of that isn't the year (you picked an unfortunate example where it could be mistaken for one), but an internal file ID automatically generated by the system. It's displayed ...
