Rules for Mods

• No inappropriate content (nsfw&snufstuff)

• No Modpacks! (there are some rare exceptions like mobf)
• No bulkfiles (screenshots, logfiles) inside the archive
• No malicious code
• No .rar or other proprietary archives (.zip prefered atm)
• The mod needs to work, obviously

Things to do

• Add Subgames to mmdb
• Fix gallery displaying gray square if there is only one picture (jeija)

Please suggest categories, I think that the actual mod authors are better at finding some that make sense then I am.
Name any Licenses you need added.
Place to report bugs
