Specific categories?

I don't know if I ever posted about this before (but I don't recall doing so), but this site really needs some sort of proper category or filter system. It's incredibly difficult to find something sort of specific, e.g. in a particular perspective (top-down vs. side) or in a particular theme. The best way right now is to search, but doing so in such a way as to get all the relevant results without a whole lot of completely irrelevant results is next to impossible. Or at least, it seems that way.

Will some sort of category or filter system be possible in the future?

We had these in the past.  They were a disaster.

It's quite reasonable to assume that art will easily fit into neat categories.  I made this assumption when I originally designed OGA, and what we ended up with were a bunch of pieces of art being shoehorned into various categories because most things didn't really fit.  Textures are to some extent an exception to this, hence the texture browsing area being different.

So, in short, I understand where you're coming from.  The answer is "already tried that; didn't work in practice."
