[Original Post]



Hi everyone!



I'd like to introduce you all to a brand new website me (and my team) have been working on for the past year and a half:



GameCreds.com



In a few words: It's a huge social network for gamers, with a specific focus on Starcraft 2 team/clan management (ok, ok, we also support



Think of it as a kind of "Facebook for gamers", only, (very) deeply connected to games databases - so whenever you add a game to the list of games you play, we extract all the relevant info about you, and build a real "player résumé".



You'll find the website has a LOT more than just that; it also has an unlimited HD video hosting section, fan pages, a news aggregator (TL news are featured almost every day :p), rankings, etc.



But let's focus on the What can you do on GameCreds?







1- Build your SC2 player profile

Simply add SC2 to the list of games you play, and type in your Battle.net URL.

















Our systems will browse Battle.net to produce a résumé, with automatically updated info on your latest featured achievements, top league games, ratings, match history and so on...







We refresh your profile every night, but you can also manually request an update anytime.

2- Start a team

All you need to do is choose a Clan name, write a little description. We suggest you a bunch of SC2 profiles (belong to people you befriended on the site) to invite, and that's it! Your Clan is Live.



So what do you get? A full-fledged Clan website, featuring, amongst other things:



- A Facebook-like Public Wall, where other SC2 players can post comments







- a Clan video section, for videos you've uploaded and want to share with your team





- A tab displaying all the clan members, with an outlook at their leagues/ratings







- Clan Forums, with both a public and private section

3- Upload & Watch videos



GameCreds has a unique deal with VOD provider Dailymotion.com - we benefit from their back-office, and can thus offer unlimited HD uploads/streaming to members (no time/length restriction). Cool thing is we get to keep our own GameCreds video player (which we think, is rather cool :p), which has a quite handy dampen light feature, and can be embedded anywhere on the internet (and shared on Facebook!).







We already have quite a few SC2 VODs, replays/tutorials - mostly french shoutcasts for now, however -



We hope to gather more english content soon! Anyway, the system is free to use, and people can also create their own HD video channel, with customized background, RSS feeds and so on... See example





4- Much more to come :D



There are tons of other features I haven't described here, and new ones we're currently working on - we're in the process of adding:

- a huge replay database (+ uplaoder & parser, replays are automatically linked to your profile)

- SC2 profiles global rankings

- a pretty neat Clan War feature





The website is still more or less in Beta, so please, any feedback/suggestion is more than welcome! We're coding stuff as fast as we can :D



Thanks!

This you can do directly from your SC2 profile page.



1- Simply hit the "Seek Teammates" button on your SC2 profile page







2- Then, describe what kind of player(s) you're looking for:



- race played & quantity, bracket









- desired league, skill (based on minimum rating), short text description









- IRL info you require, before playing with someone: name? age? does he have Skype? TS? etc.











It will create an "opportunity" that should look pretty much like this:

[Update 2: Replay Uploader & Parser]



+ Show Spoiler +

A quick update: our new REPLAY UPLOADER section (with an automated parser) is now up and running! I'm currently feeding it with whatever cool replays I can find.









It's not 100% finished, but it's still running pretty smoothly, and we'll tune it up in the coming days. As usual, your feedback is most welcome :-)





Here's how it works.





1- Seek and download replays



This you can do from the Replays" tab, next to the the "forum" one.



See a live Replay Page

How-to and screenshots below (hit the *spoiler* button).



+ Show Spoiler +



The Replay tab









Basically, it's a list of all latest uploaded replays, with a bunch of search criteria:

- maps (not working yet - still tweaking it)

- brackets

- leagues

- setups

- etc.



We're adding new search filters, like the possibility to seek a replay by player name (example: "I want all the 2v2 replays featuring Dimaga" ).



The Replay page



Each replay has its own page, with detailed players info (race/colour/league) and can be rated, commented, downloaded and liked & shared on Facebook (it helps spread the word ^^).

The cool thing?



If a player featured in a replay is registered on GameCreds, we tag him in the replay :

- the player name is converted in an active link to his GC profile

- the replay shows up in his "uploaded replays" tab, on his profile



+ Show Spoiler +







AND it also means that we can automatically estimate the "skill level" of the replay, based on the leagues the players are in.



Example :



Players Calgar and Sodesk are on GameCreds, and they both play in Solo Diamond leagues - so it shows up before their name, on the replay page/summary.







But players ClouD and XlorD have not (yet) registered their profiles, so their league indicator is empty for now.

Downloading replays of course doesn't require one to be logged in.





2- upload replays



Still accessible from the main Replay Tab, in the SC2 home page. You don't need to be logged in to upload a replay (but if you are, there also is a "upload replay" button on your SC2 Profile page).



How-to and screenshots below (hit the *spoiler* button).



+ Show Spoiler +



Simply hit the giant green "upload Replay" button.









A quick popup will show up and ask for:

- your replay file (mandatory)

- a title (mandatory)

- a short description (facultative)







...and you're done! Your replay will be uploaded and parsed within seconds, for all to download :-)
