OSCMax contribution section??

[Redeye_Joe]

I havent seen a contributions section for oscmax, and I am kind of wonding why. Maybe they dont want the confusion it may add to the forums, but it seems crazy that we should all go through the same headache and nightmares (us pretenda programers) to figure out and get modify all the files to get a mod installed and with the bts, it can be a bit of a chore. I think it would be nice have contributions section to save us some time. I have a couple I would be willing to post, as I am sure other here would.

Just talking outloud.

That is the downloads section... Post any mods you have as zipped attachments in the forums or PM them to me. I will put them in the downloads section.

If there is enough demand, I can add a new section to the forums for contributions, but thus far, there has not been a lot of demand...

Do all standard OSCommerce mods work. I have tried a few and they seem to work fine, though they are not complexed ones, box header image additions etc

any osc 2.2 can be integrated. Some require more work than others. Featured Products took 10 minutes. imagemagic about 20 minutes (damn nice readme, I think I'll be copying that style when we release stuff here). ship-in-cart, about 6 hours (lot's of reasons having to do with BTS - enhancements are taking a lot longer [we are makig it smart ] ) and master products, the base took a few hours, but the enhancements took me a few days.

BTS can be a problem for some integration work, but overall once you get the hang of where everything is, it can go preaty fast.
