For the site, not the forums: Sound Clip organization

~~Reznorite420~~ · 05-08-2003, 07:06 AM

Hey Krang, seeing as how there've been lots and lots of sound clips sent in over time, I think it would only be practical to organize the sound clips section into directories by contribution (similar to the pictures section). Not only that, but perhaps it would also help to add a label telling which episode the clip came from (hey, the video clips section is the same way!). This I'm not totally going for, but maybe it would instead of giving an excerpt from the clips taken from episode lines to actually GIVE a description. For instance:

The sound clip I sent in with the filename "rbs_buffoons.wav" has a desription of "Imbecilic buffoons". That kinda spoils what's in the clip. A description of "Bebop and Rocksteady bother Shredder" sounds better to me. Also on the clip where Raphael makes the comment "Sharp as a bowling ball" could have a description such as "Raphael makes another wisecrack to Shredder". Know what I mean?

So, opinions?

Sounds like a good idea to me. I'll take care of that as soon as I have time.

I'd like to, but the problem is, I'm not sure which episode several of the clips are from. If someone could help me figure that out, I'll gladly add the episodes to them.

Good idea, but the reason I picked such short descriptions is so that they would fit in one or two lines in the tables. Also, it's alot quicker to use a few words from each clip than it is to think of descriptions for them, especially when putting up alot of clips at a time. But I will consider rewriting the descriptions when I have time. Thanks for your suggestions!

Oh, I do happen to know what episode most if not all of the clips come from. Solves that problem

As far as the descriptions go, don't worry; only the organization and lack of episode references bothered me.

I'll PM you the names of the eps...

Great! After you send me the episode names, I'll add them when I rearrange the section.

Yeah, there are so many clips now that they need to be arranged better. I'm thinking of putting the theme songs in one section and the rest of the clips in sections divided by contributor like you mentioned. Thanks again for your suggestions!

Is it possible to send in a clip where someone on a different show mentions the TMNT, like a Turtle Sighting?

Thanks for the offer, but there's not really a place for clips like that on our site right now.
