Is there any way you could implement [rimg][/rimg] tags to automatically resize images to fit the forum and you just click it to see the bigger version?

Woah we have a suggestions thread?

Hi, I registered to post a suggestion. I follow Nintendo Everything regularly for news and have a suggestion about tagging.

What I'd like to see is more posts get tagged under "General Nintendo". This is the tag I usually come to Nintendo Everything for because it's basically all the news without including game specific things. When I look at, for example, the "3DS" tag I know I'm getting lots of screenshots, trailers, announcements, sales and so on. The "General Nintendo" tag filters this out for me, while the "News" tag tends to have pretty much everything.

But then occasionally you slip public comments by publishers/developers/analysts into the "3DS + News" tags (or "Wii" or "WiiU") without also tagging it "General Nintendo".

Examples:
http://nintendoeverything.com/93165/iwata-3ds-sales-momentum-overseas-is-not-so-good/
http://nintendoeverything.com/94950/crysis-3-a-possibility-for-wii-u-crytek-working-with-nintendo-dual-screen-talk/
http://nintendoeverything.com/93170/iwata-discusses-wii-u-doubts-details-for-console-this-fall/
http://nintendoeverything.com/92517/reggie-on-wii-u-power-insider-compares-performance-to-next-ipad-lots-more/
http://nintendoeverything.com/93150/iwata-on-improving-situation-with-third-parties-and-cultivating-developers/

It would be nice not to miss all the public comments and opinions by industry folks, hence the request to specifically tag such posts under "General Nintendo" too.

Now that I remembered this thread exists, I'll start addressing comments tomorrow (well, today actually!).

Something like this maybe?

This topic was intended for forum suggestions, but I appreciate any input about the main site as well!

I try to be careful with the tags. I do see what you're saying. Some of those tags may have been okay with the "General Nintendo" tag as well, but we've mainly reserved that for posts that don't apply to specific systems. I can't guarantee that we'll use "General Nintendo" for everything you have in mind, though I'll remember what you said going forward. Some of those posts probably should have used the tag (like http://nintendoeverything.com/92517/reg ... lots-more/). Others (like http://nintendoeverything.com/93165/iwa ... t-so-good/) feel more appropriate without it.
