Why does everything on ldraw.org have to be converted to php links?
This is insane. For instance, I noticed the "recent article box" on
the top right of the main page says Bram Lambrecht's LDraw & Ledit
tutorial was posted on the Feb. 10th. I'd really like to link to that
tutorial from my website, but unfortunately it's now a useless mess.
None of the links work because they're not that hideous php format:
http://www.ldraw.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=262
That means nothing to me. What's wrong finding a nice place for the
original html files? Something with an catchy name like this:
http://www.ldraw.org/tutorials/LdrawAndLedit.html
and just skipping the whole php tranformation.
By the way, where do less recent articles go once they scroll off the
bottom of the new articles box? Do they disappear, never to be seen
again? Or Is there a list of all the older php articles somewhere?
Also, do you really want a box with recently posted, but pretty much
useless garbage, right there on the front page? I got all excited
when I saw the tutorial was posted, but it didn't last once I clicked
on the link and saw the mess.
