We need an app for the "Post your pic" thread only. It auto loads those pictures and allows you to draw fake mustaches on everyone.
PERFECT!!!
But seriously I meant like an app with the all the Zelda game glitches and techniques and stuff....basically a mobile version of the front page xD

I don't think Apple or Android will endorse a ZSR app... Then again, I may be wrong. iPhone claims to have an app for just about everything. A ZSR app would add more to "just about everything" than the shitty twitch app and an app that has a complete collection of every sound file in every Zelda game (my brother has the latter, I forget what it's called).
I'm sure Apple would accept a ZSR app. There's strange apps. It all depends on the scheme of ZSR and all that junk. I don't remember much about making iOS apps, but a ZSR app for just the pages doesn't seem too hard to make if you know how. I guess it could also include the forums, but still. I personally wouldn't mind a ZSR app. Mainly for the forums though. If you don't mind waiting a year and a half, I'm gonna take the mobile app design class at my school next year. (Yes, we have Mobile App Design, Video Game Design, CS, and AP CS)

Awesome ;D!
A boss strategy page would be a nice thing to add. We just need someone to write one up.
I spend a lot of time working on OoT (3d) mini-bosses, and could help with them. How would you want it submitted though?
It looks like we need some TWW videos, is Dolphin running at 100% okay for them?

I would recommend using frame dump and audio dump. I could make them if need be.

I think the best way would be to create a thread on the OoT 3D boards, just in case you forget something important.
Is the new site look still being worked on?
Last I talked to maxx about it, he mentioned that it'll be launched close to Holloween.
Happy Halloween

I have a quick suggestion about the leaderboards for Link's Awakening. I think there should be a split in the any% between the DX version of the game, and the original version, considering the original version has a very large number of text skips that aren't available in the DX version. Or, at the very least, make a pull down option to denote whether it's original or DX (like the English/Japanese version difference) to make it more organized.
Also, the 100% board for LA haven't worked in quite some time. I know there are several people (myself included) interested in running the game 100%, so it would be awesome if the 100% board could get up and running sometime soon.
Thanks!

^Just a quick bump for that post. Split Link's Awakening Any% into S+Q and no S+Q, and fix the 100% leaderboards so it'll actually work. Pretty please, with sugar on top? :P
Happy Halloween
I think Merry Christmas would have been more appropriate at this point
Congratulations on the site rework.
I'm going to make a suggestion on Zelda 2 boards, though. I know for some games, the differences between the Japanese and US releases are minor. That is *not* the case with the difference between the FDS and NES versions of Zelda 2. Zelda 2 US and Japan. Japanese categories should be separate categories.
There are *major* differences. The leveling system is different. The experience awards are different. The mid bosses and palace bosses differ. Any% and NG+ palace routing is also very different, due to differences in how items are picked up in game. It's really a different game, as it wasn't just ported from FDS to NES. They changed a ton.
It's not like some games where you can just adjust for text differences, and you might be missing a glitch or two. Japanese times just aren't comparable with US times. In fact, while for 100% AK the Japanese version should be faster, the US version is going to be faster for most other categories. So it's not even a direct comparison that way!
Also, you're missing NG+, NG+ Glitch, and Any% Glitch, basically, the three categories I personally run :)
Just some Zelda 2 suggestions. And again, congratulations on the new site designs.

The dungeon strategies and new game + section for oot3d was lost somehow.
Not lost, just glitch in the system. Should be fixed.
First off, I wanted to say thanks so much for the site update. It looks great! Just one nitpicky thing. For Link's Awakening, you have 100% listed in the b&w version, but not the DX version, but the standard version to run 100% on is the DX version, because it has an extra dungeon, and an entire extra sidequest. So if you could just move the 100% leaderboards over to DX instead of b&w, that would be perfect. Again, that's me being super nitpicky, thanks again for the great work! :D
It appears that editors have to re-apply now that the update has gone live, so I don't know if these features has been added or not.
But about a year ago in the IRC I discussed about the possibility of having nested sections in the navigation menu, and I believe it still hasn't been added. Or maybe it was decided that it wasn't a necessary feature.
Take this page as an example:
http://zeldaspeedruns.com/oot3d/area/gerudo-desert
It would be cleaner with a nested navigation menu that looked something like this:
or possibly
This way the navigation menu is easier to use, and it is clear that the "megaflip method" is a method for getting past the wooden gate.
Another solution would be to add an official syntax for methods, and have it be displayed in the nav menu in such a manner that it is clear that they are methods of a specific trick.
It's also worth mentioning that the triforce font doesn't have a percent/% symbol, it displays a picture of link. So pages with titles such as any% look weird.
And the site doesn't seem to have a footer with any copyright or contact information. That may have been on purpose though.
And it is still missing a favicon.

I think the old version actually allowed to do that, but now it looks like this
http://zeldaspeedruns.com/oot3d/dungeon-strats/fire-temple
Now the methods are left instead.

I had something like this in mind:
http://imgur.com/a/odWG8
These screenshots were taken with a script I created for Tampermonkey(chrome)/Greasemonkey(firefox)
It nests any h1/h2/h3 (up until the specified header level) to the first header tag located above it that has a lower level.
List items with a nested list are displayed with a yellow triforce symbol.
You can toggle the nested lists by clicking on the yellow symbols.
I've made it so that if the page lack a h1, it puts all h2 within an item that goes by the pages name.
And a lot more.
Here's the script: (added comments to pretty much the entire code so that anyone can understand what's going on)
http://pastebin.com/8SmkPu5P
Run it after the original code has loaded to overwrite the Navi Menu with mine.
It is a relatively simple code, but it helps me to navigate.
I think it is a great improvement to the navi menu myself, and that's why I made it to begin with.
It looks good on most pages, but there are a few out there with a rather odd header format, like this one: http://zeldaspeedruns.com/ss/area/eldin-volcano
I assume the reason they have such weird layouts is because they wanted specific headers to be displayed in the Navi Menu. A nested menu would solve that though, making such layouts unnecessary.
Edit: Added some major updates to the script.

NAVIgation...that's clever..
Does the site need any backend developers? Looks like it could use some maintenance. :-X
Uh, any reason why there's no link to the forums on the main page?
I can see the link to the forums at the top of the site, no issues.
Are there no speedruns/strats pages for Zelda and Zelda II?

There is a lot of work needed to be put into these sites for them to be listed on the drop down though

Could mini-games be added to the speed running categories?
I'm not sure which games have mini-games within them, but A Link Between Worlds is fairly popular on Cyberscore (link) and I'd love to be able to submit my own times here as well. After all this is Zelda and these are speed runs!
