Gang,
As I work on herocorps - I'm seeing a lot of things I could have done a helluva lot better with crey. As such, all of the improvements I've promised such as templates for assesments and reports, report dates independent of when they were edited, etc. will be coming. Along with the codebase from herocorps.com.

This does mean a delay on getting the updates into crey first. I need to actually get finished with herocorps. Get the ok to let some ppl in to test it from cryptic/ncsoft. Fix Bugs.

I'm hoping to be able to keep existing data. I should be able to. I do stress should. I will make an entire backup of the database for making such a huge change. One area I will need to look at heavily is the supergroup code - at least the section on ranks. Again, the bulk of the info should be fine. I've just gotta think of some conversion strategies.

Still, I recommend keeping a copy of your info on your pc just in case. I hope everyone is doing that anyway.

ok...now for the carrot...you will be able to have links and images in the middle of your assessments and reports now. In addition to the profile image, action image, and report image already part of the system.

I do stress again that I will make a backup of the current site and database before doing such a major change.

D'Arkaine, you rock! I just wanted to be the first to say that (in this thread). :)

Dude you are so awesome. I love Crey Industries, even though it took me forever to get into them. (That being my computer's fault, not yours)

I would love to, once you get permission, be able to help test HeroCorps. I'm already laying out my villains aspects and I really wanted to get a good start on their Hero Corp's Files.

...report dates independent of when they were edited...
Excellent! This is the one thing that has kept me from going back and finishing Widdy's old Scroll of Tielekku reports. I've been wanting to do that for months, but I don't like the thought of having to go back to each report which came after Tielekku just to hit Edit and Submit in order, praying that I don't mess up the sequence of the post-Tielekku reports or accidentally throw a pre-Tielekku report (most likely Wheel of Destruction) into the mix.

This would be a godsend. Thank you for considering this improvement, D'Ark. :)
