1) Keep the categories. They are actually really helpful, not to mention they're a big part of Dink history. In fact, I'd say we need more categories (as in we need the "Weird"/"Arcade" category back). However, I think we should finally come up with some specific, more accurate rules about the categories. This debate's been had quite a few times over the last few years, and I think we need to have certain requirements at last. Such as the combination of map size and overall playtime, to determine what qualifies as Romp, Quest and Epic.

3) Bad idea, imo. Review system is fine as it is, I think. Anonymous voting/reviewing seems like it'd get abused super easily, too.

5) I think the entry page is okay as it is, but I wouldn't be against updating it either. In general, I think the site could use something more Dinkish in it. We don't really have ANYTHING other than that faint background picture that gives any sort of indication that this site is about Dink Smallwood.

6) As long as you can find a way to do that. I think the directions are about as simple as they can get, already.

I like the addition of GIFs and also the random screenshot on the right of the site. Not sure why the latter was ever removed for so many years in the first place, as that used to be a thing before.
