I visit your site daily and I see a very annoying problem. some of the links on the right of the site aren't opening in tabs but only in a new window and when I open a new window it doesn't have the options to go back and forward. like if I choose "Ubuntu game list" it opens in a new window only, then if I choose "strategy games" and choose a game and then I want to go back to "strategy games" I can't.

please fix it if you can.

my other suggestion is to always include screenshots of the games in the news when possible, videos are very good, but some videos only include the promo of the game which does not represent the actual gameplay. so it would be great if you could also include more in-game screenshots.

if you have other suggestions please feel free to post them here.

We'll take a look at it. Including screenshots in news will be no problem.

I'm not sure if we absolutely need them other than in posts where there is no video. We nearly always link to screenshots on the game's website or another location. It's not too complicated to click on a screenshot link if you want to see screenshots, as opposed to filling the page up with more images for the user to load in each and every article.

Perhaps we should discuss it with CK first.

In some news I had provided screenshot in it, like this; http://gaming.gwos.org/news.php?extend.38

Oh sure do things the easy way. lol ^_^

I'm not against it by any means I was just questioning things as I always do.

Character flaws FTW!

maximum you can include links to screenshots. BUT fix the windows problem I HATE sites which don't give me the option to open up windows in tabs with ALL options, I'm freaking out when I see another open window. thais it my major problem with the site 3 of the 6 links on the right will open a new windows.

The link should be fixed now ( I think CK fixed it). Try test it and see if that's what you had in mind.

Thanks, I've checked them with CK and they are now fixed !
