> Are all those flyers on the main page completely new? Or were they on TAFA already?
Well, I can't say for certain, but I'm about 90% sure there's nothing new... yet. Hopefully he'll tag redone scans and/or new scans with appropriate tags to improve their visibility when it eventually happens.
https://twitter.com/adian_ume/status/500995799921086464 says something about "new flyers" and "October" but I don't understand how he's related to the project.
I see AntoPisa has already updated his Links page and replaced TAFA with Flyer Fever. http://www.progettosnaps.net/ Not sure I'd do that yet... much as I like Dan and historically KLOV is... KLOV. Maybe add it as a second source. But speaking as one of those who does "get serious" about the metadata, I'm not a total fan of the site layout yet. (How would you display all Atari flyers by copyright year, for instance?) If they never make changes like that, then I can choose to use TAFA for "research" and Flyer Fever for idle browsing. Also, TAFA states that it's targeting all coin-op flyers ever, and Flyer Fever just 1971 to 1991 (more or less). (Tumblr tends to be fairly mobile-friendly too.)
But at least it's no muss and no fuss. Want to drown in flyer photos? Just keep on scrolling.
