Pinball Nirvana had to move the Downloads to a new active system last month:
http://www.pinballnirvana.com/forums/downloads.php
The new system currently only has the physical file for most of the downloads and they are listed by the name of the file (ie: zip file name), we need you to edit your files, this is done by clicking on the file name, then Edit.
Send me a Private Message or reply in this thread if you don't see the edit link.
Information that needs to be added to the program includes:
File Name: It currently only shows the zip file name, ie:AladdinsCastle-B76.v1.2W should be renamed to Aladdin's Castle, the real table name.
Author(s): Add your name, the system will match users in the forums userlist, multiple authors can be listed even if they aren't a member of Pinball Nirvana.
Description: The first two entries in the description should be:
Author:
Version: (if any)
That way the Author and version information will be displayed first on the table listing pages.
After, add the description of the table, if any. I have a text file that lists information from the old UpDownloads program if necessary.
Optional links were added by me a long time ago to the ipdb and roms but it's not necessary, here's a sample with multiple Authors names and version information listed first in the description:
http://www.pinballnirvana.com/forums/downloads.php?do=file&id=2749
Images: The screenshot's name that you upload should match the zip file name. (ie: for a download that downloads as Sample_rc1.zip, the SS should be renamed to Sample_rc1.jpg before uploading)
This program can handle multiple images for a file if wanted, The first image that is uploaded should be the Screenshot and will also be the thumbnail for the file.
If you need additional help, here's a link to a text file that contains additional information with links to the old screenshots and full listings of the old UpDownloads Table information:
