Somebody just left a shoebox on your doorstep. It's papery and drawn- upon
and smells new and inky. What sorts of beautiful Shoes are you going to
put inside?


I've been working, with help and advice from Tom Bell, on a storage space for all the shoes apps that we've been collecting. It uses a couple of _why's
illustrations from NKS, and tries to maintain that sketchy atmosphere.

Each app gets a page, and can list a description/how-to/tutorial alongside the various versions and files for the app. We can comment on the app and
upload improvements as things are, you know, improved. You can password
protect your app if you so desire, or leave it open for anyone to edit and upload versions to. When you get started, please upload an iconic image of your app
to accompany it.

So, yeah, open the floodgates. If anyone's been holding out interesting apps that they'd like to share, and have critiqued, now's the time. I've put up my three apps to get started, but it would be great to have the current versions of
Minesweeper, Othello, and the Racetrack.

Site design critiques, suggestions for improvement, and discovery of rendering
bugs (esp. in Windows and Linux) are appreciated, although not required.

I'm looking forward to filling up the shoebox.
