    first of all. i'm glad that i can use the keyword search again, since it didn't worked a few days ago. But you still can't really find what your looking for. 

    with the keyword search system, whenever you type something, you only get files were those words are fond in the description. for example, when i type in eiffel tower, i only get one file, and it's not the eiffel tower, i only get a park pack were the the eiffel tower is named. it won't search for the files that are actualy named the same as whatever you type in. This already makes it very difficult to find something.

    then there's another thing. Again, when you type the name in of someone who makes bats and all that, you only get files were that name is in the description. for example, when i try find all the bats made by oneil, by typing in his name, i can't find anything of it! i had the same problem yesterday when i typed in cycledogg. with that i was lucky, because one of those files with the name cycledogg in the description actualy was his, and i could click his name besides the filename, and only then i got all the files made by him. So when i try to find something from oneil, i have to find something first that actualy is his, and then click his name, because only then i can get all the files of him. But i haven't fond anything, since i haven't fond a single file of him.

    i'm sorry if this is explained a little weird, but i have no idea how to do otherwise. What i'm trying to reach with this topic, is that somedays it can be upgraded, so you can search for filenames and the ones who made them. Cause without that, you can hardly find anything you want!

    i know that dirk has been busy with it all, and if he already is working on improving it, i can wait patiently. but if he hasn't, well, i hope he, or who ever works on all that, finds the time to improve it. so that people can find what you really want.

    cheers, natuurzoon
