A proposal to stop using old snippets for new filters

Petition signed!

I think explaining snippers on Wiki is also a good thing -- plus it gives snippets more visibility. Ideally, every snippet would have a corresponding article on Wiki explaining the idea, possible uses and benefits, and limitations. The article would have a link to the Library page of the snippet.

uber,

the problem with what you're suggesting is, for me, familiarity. i dont know what supplants what. when i want a snippet, i just start roaming around and grab the first thing i find that looks feasible/plausible/workable. i'm just not versed in what came before or after another snippet.

it would be great to have just a simple index of snippets and a small blurb on what each does and if one supplants another. vlad's idea is good too, a more in depth breakdown of what's what. but for me, i've been around since almost day one and seen many of these when they came out but dont use any one of them often enough to remember where it is, what it is, or what might take the place of another. as a for instance, i'm currently in need of the rotate image routine. i'll find it or find one, but i've no idea if there is an upgraded version or not. actually, what i need is to rotate a profile gradient thumb/preview, but all i can currently do is rotate the gradient and not the whole thumb/preview. so, some sort of quick reference guide would be great. this is part of the reason why i'd love to be able to have more user made folders in the gui also... so i can organize and find things.

thanks, uber. that did the trick! that is one VERY handy routine!

Actually version3 of the Angle Grad works good in byros "Spherify".
