Advanced Archive Search Options

[Rainbow Dash]

Would adding more ways to search the archives be a possibility? Just a few ideas on ways to break down the archive.

- View by Artist
- View by features (Bobtail, flopped ears, etc. This has dog hoarders in mind but I realize this would be a pain to code.)
- View by main color?

I think the "search by artists" feature would be the easiest to code with others being a harder. Let me know what you think.

Viewing by features isnt really a good idea, since different people call the features different things. Like for example, someone might call bobtails "bunny" or "rabbit" tails.
Do you see where i'm going with this?

Support. It would help when someone is trying to find a pet and they don't know what month it is from. Also, it would be cool just to browse artists' pets through CS

I support this idea- it would be nice to view the archives through diiferent ways. :3

- View by Artist

I would love this. It'd be a nice, convenient way to view all the pets made by so-and-so.

- View by features (Bobtail, flopped ears, etc. This has dog hoarders in mind but I realize this would be a pain to code.)

I see this as being potentially problematic, what with the dogs with mismatched ears or strange tails. I suppose it could work if there were an "Other" group for each category.

- View by main color?

I'm not sure this is much of a possibility. It would involve adding new tags to each pet, as well as quite a few tough calls or pets in multiple groups, which may be more trouble than it's worth. It would be neat, though.
