[Suggestion] A personal page wher things can be shared...

[JimmyRJump]

I would like to see the addition of a personal page (personal, as in, a page on Nexus that can only be accessed by the 'owner' of said page) where things like tutorials can be posted. Now (as far as I know) to spread a tutorial, you'd need to post it as a mod, with said tutorial uploaded as a text-file. While (potentially) beneficial to the people interested, the files aren't actually a mod, since the tutorial(s) usually don't add anything to the game.

 

It would be like a diary page, where the 'owner' of the page can post anything he/she wants (within the guidelines/rules of Nexus, of course).

Though it is kind of possible combining the "About me" page with images and articles.

 

Also it's perfectly okay to upload pdf tutorials, since there's usually a "Modders Resource and Tutorials" section

One could consider using the WIKI page facility under Support ... https://wiki.nexusmods.com/index.php/Category:Tutorials. A tutorial could be added there and it would be available within existing facilities and services.

Actually, I'd prefer that anything that isn't a "mod" doesn't use a mod page. Otherwise it becomes problematic with things like Donation Points. That's not to say we're currently actively removing such pages, but there may come a day when we do that.

 

OP: You can add tutorials to our Wiki: https://wiki.nexusmods.com/index.php/Main_Page or create a forum post in the relevant game forum :)

Are you saying this with having tutorials in mind?

Because the whole "Modders Resource" section consists of non-mods, such as 3dsmax files, tools, photoshop files( ...)

To be more specific, mod content or assets that can be used in mods is generally ok. The thing I'd like to avoid is when people upload a TXT/PDF file as a "mod". Basically when there's no reason for there to be a file download.

There is reason.

I have designed my tutorials to be used as printouts as well an offline reference (Maybe for a time when the Nexus is gone)
But ok, they're not opted in.

That's exactly what this 'personal' page would be for. To post stuff like tutorials that otherwise would be uploaded as a mod.
