Small critic to the project and depending ressources

Hi,

 

please don't take this critic to hard. I am really happy, that this project here exist and I hope really that this open source project will be improved a lot in the future! But I am currently working on a shop system with a lot of modification and I am really getting crazy.

 

The modifaction descriptions are often absolutly to hard to use. I won't say a lot about it, but everyone who is contribute here a modification shall have a closer look to the way modifications are given in phpBB. I think they really made great job to give an easy way to modifacte the orginal board. Please have a look at some mods there and try to make it also in OSCommerce.

 

The creators of the shop directly, shall really think about templates. It's damn cruel hard to navigate throught the source to find what you are searching for. One the one hand you wanna change the layout or the source, nearly never both... I think that if you are moving to try using a template system, the project may profit a lot of this, because many people that are not working directly with the code every day have a chance to modificate it and on this way maybe one or another improvement more will be made.

 

Please think about it and have a look at phpBB, where it is done (in my opionion) a lot better. However take this critic not to hard, you've done a great shop for an opensource shop for free.

 

Sincerly,

Phobeus
