Thanks! There's really a lot of work to do, but I'm working on it on a daily basis. So stay tuned!

dantan · « **Reply #52 on:** Tue, 15 July 2014, 16:30:18 »

I really need a resource like this. otherwise I never know what I'm getting.

Fnzzy · « **Reply #53 on:** Wed, 16 July 2014, 17:24:00 »

Do you also search for more generic sets such as Ducky or Tai Hao? I will also send you some info on an Iron Man cap tomorrow when I can get some pretty pictures.

Ragnorock · « **Reply #54 on:** Wed, 16 July 2014, 19:36:23 »

Hey Matt, love the site. Here's some information on the Ragnarok group buy:

- Ragnarok
- April 2012
- Red on Black Keyset 88 key base set with notable Windows 8 style windows keys and an extra custom legend enter key reading "Execute"
- Ragnorock, Signature Plastics as the supplier
- ABS
- DCS
- NN (Black) base
- RA (Red) legends
- Biohazard 1.5x modifier key in matching colors available for OS agnostic applications
- 150 Base sets produced, no reruns.
- 104 key add on kit, Tsangan compatibility kit, ISO kit

Original Sale thread: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=27473.0

Pics available here: http://imgur.com/a/mJ0A9#0

If you start doing sets between individual novelty keys and full keysets, I've done a lot of those and can contribute there too. Just PM me since I probably won't keep following the thread.

yes, the idea is to catalog them all. Of course I'm giving higher priority to "our" sets at the moment since we are just starting up. Some insight on the Iron Man cap would be fantastic!

Your site is great. I don't have any special keysets to contribute, but it will certainly help me to find one.

CPTBadAss · « **Reply #57 on:** Thu, 17 July 2014, 06:47:22 »

Hm, I remember earlier in this thread you were saying you really wanted to have permissions from people to use their pictures. If that's the case, shouldn't the picture-takers be credited?

SpAmRaY · « **Reply #58 on:** Thu, 17 July 2014, 07:14:50 »

I'm sure an "accessories"-style tab would work well if Matteo agrees; could house key pullers, switch removal tools, and colored switch tops, among other things.

It might be extending too much, but even plates, PCBs, and cases could be documented for reference. That might be reaching a bit too far outside of the scope of the site though.

Still don't see it but I'll take your word for it.

Edit: I see them for the larger pictures but I don't see them for the smaller ones. I don't see credit to Ragnarock until I click on the picture. And the pictures don't pop out in say Penumbra.

CPTBadAss · « **Reply #65 on:** Thu, 17 July 2014, 11:48:58 »

Ok...so I still think my concern is there. Why don't *all* the entries have credit given in the paragraph like Penumbra does? Otherwise there doesn't seem to be a purpose in asking for picture credits if it's hidden.

the bottom line is that the info is stored in the DB. it's just a matter of better presentation maybe. Please note that I'm still working on the code, but as you can see small updates come on a daily basis.

I was talking about the code, but I read the thread and saw that you might put it on github.

I can submit the [CTRL]ALT sets if you would like.

Matt3o · « **Reply #77 on:** Mon, 21 July 2014, 12:07:54 »

Lots of updates today

I've added the designer, manufacturer, "key mount" and "legend printing" fields. Now that I have some beta testers I also added the name of the submitter to each keyset. Soon we will have a "top contributors" page

And of course the usual minor-bug-fixes.

I'm still beta testing the submission form and registration page. It's not easy to fight with wordpress...

The main problem here is that it's pretty hard to recreate the development environment. You have the core wordpress engine, then the plugins, plugin configurations, database and finally the custom theme. Technically speaking the custom code is just in the "theme" folder, but that's not enough if you want a working version of the website.

PS: I'll PM you instructions to submit a set

GSimon · « **Reply #81 on:** Sun, 03 August 2014, 18:27:29 »

minor gripe, with the sanctuary set can the image shown on the homepage be switched out for one that has the correct color? The keys look distinctly orange when in reality they are quite red, and not at all orange.

GSimon · « **Reply #83 on:** Mon, 04 August 2014, 02:14:33 »

Nah..I just noticed there were other pics on the site that could be used maybe. I guess you'd prefer to have a pic that shows the whole set at once, I can color correct the one in the thumbnail at least for the time being until another photo can be sourced, not on my computer atm but can do it tomorrow.

well, the site has already been pushed to the usual suspects. Honestly I got less support than I expected, but I'll keep updating the site as long as I have time to. I guess we just need more material.
