Did a bit of browsing through a few levels I may've wanted to redownload, and I've found that Jungle Goonz has a broken DL link. Fixed! There was a space between "Jungle" and "Goonz" which the web host doesn't understand. I also performed the "Version 5 update", replacing perfectly good UBBC with pseudo HTML strings.

Yeah, it did bother me that if a level is a collaboration with someone, then it's not listed among the rest of one's levels. Having the collaboration levels be listed in individual people's lists would be a good call.

Having the collaboration levels be listed in individual people's lists would be a good call. Well, since there are only six collaborator pairs, it will be a relatively simple (but time-consuming) task to copy the entries into each Designer's index. But then I would have to change every index to link separately to each Designer. Probably about forty Index members involved (Designer (twice), Graphics set, Difficulty, and Release Date for each Custom Level.

The links to Wedrikul's On The Clouds seem to be broken... Strange?!? Some of the five indicez had the thread number as 2604 (which was wrong!) and otherz had 2605 (which is correct).
Fixed!

Is the Designer List going to be further updated? It appears to have been out-of-date for at least a year and at the same time it is displayed among the "Important Links" on forum homepage.

I have been trying to make it completely obsolete ... replacing the links to it with links to the individual Designer's listings. When I can no longer find links to the Designer List in other indices, I will delete it from the web host and from this Forum as well.

Please look at the newer version I made in a post below instead!A list of current issues in the indices I found: 1. The Smallest Puzzle is completely missing from the indices. 2. Thunderstorm Battlez High is incorrectly named "Thunderstorm Battlez High Easy" in various indices it's in. 3. Zipper appears to be missing from some indices, and the link to its thread in The 2018 Index (where this map is at least listed) redirects to a non-existing webpage. Also, notice that in the Zipper thread, level status says "awaiting beta testing" and there's a question mark next to the date, even though the level's already released! 4. Quest For The Wingz's difficulty is inconsistent in various indices... Once it shows "Frustrating", once it shows "Hard", while it really should be "Very Hard+". 5. The 2017 Index contains a Battle that was never released and should be deleted from it. And the level count in the Indices Thread says that 24 Questz were released, while actually 25 Questz are in the indices for this year. 6. The 2016 Index has levels numerated as 1-2-2-3 instead of 1-2-3-4. 7. The 2015 Index contains an outdated entry for "Quest For The Wingz", which should be deleted. Also, the level count in the Indices Thread says that 8 Battlez were released, while only 7 are in the indices for this year. 8. The 2009 Index (now I'm going quite far ) for some reason has unnumerated levels.

My level Elementary and swietymiki's level The Smallest Puzzle does not seem to be added to the index. It's not in the difficulty section, date section and size section.

Life (other than Gruntz) has taken up my time. I had a few minutes this evening to deal with Whirlpool, but my bedtime takes precedence over more tonight. I have a doctor's appointment early tomorrow, a bit of shopping soon after ... and then about five hours of free time! I hope to get all of the issues accomplished inthat time.

I'm updating my list with benadnam's remarks (but not only), so please follow this one: 1. The Smallest Puzzle is completely missing from the indices. 2. Thunderstorm Battlez High is incorrectly named "Thunderstorm Battlez High Easy" in various indices it's in. 3. Zipper appears to be missing from some indices and the link to its thread in The 2018 Index (where this map is at least listed) redirects to a non-existing webpage, and its difficulty is incorrect: should not be "Easy+" but "Easy". Also, notice that in the Zipper thread, level status says "awaiting beta testing" and there's a question mark next to the date, even though the level's already released! 4. Quest For The Wingz's difficulty is inconsistent in various indices... Once it shows "Frustrating", once it shows "Hard", while it really should be "Very Hard+". 5. Elementary appears to be completely missing from the indices. 6. Winterpool is missing from the indices (a new submission but I still put it). 7. The 2017 Index contains a Battle that was never released and should be deleted from it. And the level count in the Indices Thread says that 24 Questz were released, while actually 25 Questz are in the indices for this year. 8. The 2016 Index has levels numerated as 1-2-2-3 instead of 1-2-3-4. 9. The 2015 Index contains an outdated entry for Quest For The Wingz, which should be deleted. It also contains an entry for Small Casino Battle, which was re-released and needs to be deleted from here as well. The level count in the Indices Thread says that 8 Battlez were released, while the correct number after changes will be 6 for this year. 10. The 2009 Index (now I'm going quite far ) for some reason has unnumerated levels.

The 2009 Index (now I'm going quite far ) for some reason has unnumerated levels. Working on the list
The 2009 index without numbers is because (some) titles were long, and (some) Designer's handles were also long, and I wanted to avoid certain entries from wrapping to two lines. Since the Rock images set the height of a line, I can re-insert numbers. (An experiment of little value, it seemed, so reversible.)
One of my desires for the indices is to have a "View the map!" image available for every CL. Where I fail in this respect is in Battlez, and in very large Quest maps ... especially when things happen that the solver (in this case, yours truly) cannot capture the original image ... but an image after Giant Rockz are broken, and enemy Gruntz have eliminated one another, for example. Since even with dgVoodoo and Vista compatibility mode it is impossible for me to scroll over the entire map until I have done a SAVE, such CLz are forever beyond my capability to create a proper image such as a person can (almost) see in the Gruntz Level Editor.

I have begun working on the Elementary indices, but am rapidly running out of time. I expect to be called for dinner within minutes, and that will end my time for Forum work until I return from the ball game.

Elementary and Winterpool (items 5 & 6) seem to be complete, so I am now starting on Quest For The Wings.

Quest For The Wingz is now rated at 'Very Hard' in indices.

I will look into these ... except for the 2015 index ... you need to refresh your browser caching to see that both are gone, and the 'pending' comment as well.
Have you found any links (remaining) to the Designer Index? I believe they are all gone now, and the Forum index reference could be removed, as well as the index from the Forum's web host (which domain needs to be renewed this month).

Also, something I just noticed is that my index points to the wrong thread with the Cramped Kitchen Table link.
