Naturally, I tried to look for the answers to these questions around the site. This was to no avail. So, I turn to you, o general population of the internet. I'm working on some reviews for the classic game reviews section, and seeing as how submitting reviews is currently disabled, I have a few questions:

1. Is there any limit to how long the reviews can be? I like to go into a lot of detail and one of my reviews is currently taking up 7 pages in Microsoft Word.

2. Is there any way we can add pictures into the middle of reviews to provide better examples of what we speak of, much as the beloved I-Mockery columnists do for their articles?

3. Can reviews be edited once submitted?

And 4. Is there any word on how long this maintenance will take?

Thanks for your help, good people!

1. Nope. Write as much as you want

2. Nope. You can only add 3 pics which are shown at the beginning of the review. Or at least that's how it's been. I guess you could add urls for the images if it's essential for your review.

3. Nope. But I wish we could

4. Nope, not that I would've heard of it

Urto, thanks for your interest in submitting reviews to the site, but I would hold off on submitting any new reviews until our site redesign is done. We've got a lot of work to do still and I wouldn't want any reviews you submit to get lost in the process. If you want, you can just save your reviews in a text file and then submit them once our site redesign is completed.

To answer your other questions:

1) No limit.
2) Not yet, but it's something I might look into for the redesign.
3) Same as #2.
4) Too hard to say at this point. It's basically a "it'll be done when it's done" kind of thing.

I appreciate all of the help from both of you! I can't wait for them to come back up! Also, I can't help but notice that your join date for the site is 1969. Go go Woodstock!

I think that 7 pages is too long for anyone on the Internet to read.

Oddly, the hate mail i get from saying mario1 and final fantasy1 suck balls has slackened off. Can people not access my email from the reviewer thingy anymore?
