    1.) put the new topic thing on the first page, i spent 10 minutes looking for it...
    2.) site sends an email when someone comment on a topic that you commented on OR have a sort by "my comments" thing so people can find topics that they already commented on.
    3.) in the game, it should have a local save function so you dont need an internet connection to work on an item
    4.) stamps are OK, but for copy/paste stuff it should just hold in memory, because the stamp library is kind of annoying...
    5.) just a totally crazy idea, add elements from periodic table?
    thanks!

    1. Is already a feature, you must have missed it.
    2. I don't want my server to get blacklisted for spam, so I don't want to use the e-mail too often.
    4. Why is the stamp library annoying?
    5. No. Read this

    thank you, i guess im wrong or my web browser is weird, because the new topic item appears on the very last page of the forum.
    the stamp library isn't really anoying, its just that a click-drag or ctrl-c ctrl-x ctrl-v type thing would be very handy for lots of people, even if you dont use the copy-cut-paste things, click-drag would make it a lot easier to work with stuff, it could actually utilize the stamp function:
    1.) create stamp from selection
    2.) implement the l function and allow user to paste stamp
    3.) clear original area of stamp (as if you had moved it instead of copying, pasting then clearing)

    also, i am sorry about suggesting element items like the periodic table, i did mention it was crazy, and a lot of the stuff would be useless, so here are some fully valid ideas
    1.) hydrogen
    2.) a metal that transmits electricity automatically

    now, since im here, id like to mention several bugs
    1.) when you have metal, if you spark, and while holding, drag, it causes interference which loops the spark infinitely
    2.) the update function doesnt work (at least it doesnt on my win 7 64 bit comp) it says:
    downloading update, gets to 99% then the game crashes and windows says powder sse-2 has stopped working, windows is searching for a solution...

    and I have one request, as the current developer of powder toy, could you please look at my physics game and give me some valid ideas? all my friends are not good at thinking of ideas, and I just want to hear your general opinion. If you are too busy, I understand, but maybe you could check it out? I am not going to post the link as it would be considered advertising my game, so if you have time to look at it, contact me at vsams14 (AT) gmail (DOT) com
    thanks!
