This is a great idea. Especially if you can make an NRO to download directly via the switch!

There is a lot more work to go into this but I think it's great idea to have one central source for switch themes.

I'm sure you're going to implement rating system for themes too? Also, did you try looking through Qcean for themes? They seem to have quite a bit of them

heya! sorry i dont know what or who qcean is.

rating system is already live. But still no sorting.

as for nro homebrew, yep thats the plan. although if someone made a browser for switch first, i probably will cancel making nro app

It would be awesome if the sever holds the .zip files instead of uploading them to gdrive or another hosting service.

Also, i think that this deserves a discord server for contact/support (also you can use the discord server like a hosting service for direct download)

+ It would be a nice touch changing the "download" text to a button, so it adds more beautiful and professional looking to the page
+ Edit your posts should be possible. i have a theme uploaded and i want to change the description and i can't

EDIT: i've used your submit tool and i have problems with it, when the theme is uploaded, it shows all the content below like this
https://i.imgur.com/WImfDbs.png Try to modify the submit form with a "read more tag" before download line

EDIT 2: i've managed to fix it, but even fixed it shows 2 times "download" on the index page

Cool idea but... why not just use /r/NXThemes ?

Since you are linking to that as source
those that prefer /r/nxthemes are free to keep posting there

ill look into discord later, thanks for the suggestion

download button and any other iconography are planned for far future (the website doesnt even have a logo or favicon hahaha)

post can be edited from https://nxtheme.bramantya.org/wp-admin/edit.php (yes, no link from the frontpage, probably will add in the future)

about the preview being derpy, sorry for the trouble, thanks for the report. its fixed now

I've tried your link but it doesn't let me edit the post. anyway, i've been using https://nxtheme.bramantya.org/dashboard/ since it doesn't show me the wordpress page and loads in the page itself. also it has a clean look for dummys

if you want some help with the graphic design of the page i can help you tho

EDIT: So i've tested the page editing and uploading a new theme (i've deleted my old theme because it used the old submit form without tags and everything) and reupload it, now it works flawlessly. Great job, keep it up

Your idea is good, but your site offer both legal nxthemes and illegal szs format.
We don't allow linking to websites offering copyrighted content.

If you think nxtheme format is better and decide to allow only this format, the link can stay.
if you let users upload their pre-patched layeredFS binary files, you won't be allowed to post your website URL on this forum.
Qcean team worked hard to make theme sharing legal, even creating a new format and a theme installer homebrew, I think it's the least we can do to use it. yes, the theme installer also work with the illegal szs, but it doesn't mean it's fine to link here, it was a backward compatibility for existing themes.

This. as i said before, the page should allow to upload .nxtheme files only and auto zip them. You can use some 3DS theme pages to get an idea

some themes might have more than one nxtheme (for now, one per szs), and might also have a text file for information (author, etc.)
I understand that allowing only nxtheme extension would prevent szs files upload, but it'll be hard to make a full package with all nxtheme files in it.

in the futur, Exelix will update the nxtheme format to patch multiple files at once (contain all pictures and layout inside a single nxtheme) so it'll be easier. it still leaves the additional files (text, or jpg preview, etc.)

maybe a multi-submit form could be done for now, one per screen and packed together.

ah. totally forgot about the nxtheme and szs. i though people only shared nxtheme on my site.

in the mean time, is it okay if i do this manually? by putting a note "only paste link to .nxtheme or zip containng .nxtheme, szs themes will be removed from site" ?

and i manually remove szs themes.

@everyone

sorry it was unclear, i dont meant it to link and or host anything other than the images and nxtheme files.

those submissions will be taken down. i truly sorry for this. i really forgot to make it clear you should only submit nxtheme file be it zipped or not.

of course, that's fine. It's just more work for you.
thank you for understanding :)

sorry for users who submitted the szs, you can easilly convert it to nxtheme now. update your tool and choose "save as... nxtheme".
