[QUOTE="ibmonkey, post: 959408, member: 61340"] I'm just trying to gets some initial thoughts from others about an idea I've been toying with recently. The idea is to have a plugin that has the ability to download a pack of TV or Radio Logos, that you've selected from a list of available logo packs. This would mean we would need just the one plugin to satisfy the needs of all users of MP regardless of location, and even for different logo styles. I would imagine an online repository where all the logo packs would be stored, and separate folders would hold the different packs where only the pack "owner" or "editor" would be able to make changes. The plugin would then be able to pick up these changes, either by entering the plugin in MP and selecting the pack to download or by automatically updating on a regular basis (which is how I ultimately see this plugin functioning). So, do you think this is a good idea, would you use it? Do you have any ideas on an online repository/cloud storage, which could allow both the ability to give access rights to different users to keep them up to date, and would also make it easy to be able to download all the files from inside a folder programmably (using C# I think it would have to be)? I have not dabbled in MP plugins before, or used C# for that matter. So any tips or even help writing the plugin would be really appreciated. [/QUOTE]
