Here is Linda2014 avatar as an example and yes I am stalking her on the forums. 8O

Note: I realize some members include their names in the Location field but many do not.
Although there's an asterisk behind Owner's name in the search page, it isn't required, but the Doll Account usernames aren't the same as the doll names in the Matrix, for example, Linda2014 is called Linda A L in the Matrix.

But you can use the asterisk to search for partials, so if you search for linda*, she will show up.

All Doll Accounts need to have the owner's name mentioned in their profile, preferably in the location field, this is a Doll Account rule.
If there are accounts that don't have this, please let me know by PM.

Sadly, we can't permanently show the manufacturer and owner's name above the avatar on the forum, as the forum isn't designed to do this.
A member could edit their avatar picture to include this information, or have a link to their Matrix page in their signature, but that's up to them.

The thing with outfits and accessories is, it changes too quickly and isn't even available everywhere.
Even if I told you where I got the majority of clothing for my dolls, you wouldn't be able to buy them, as they no longer have those items, same for the jewelry.
I've bought the majority of the girls bling at Kruidvat and Etos, both Dutch drugstores, but they change their inventory so often, getting the same item after a while is pretty much impossible.

Congrats to all contributors to this project. You all have done a great job! This is an excellent upgrade to a much appreciated service.

My first impression feedback: Searching for a doll by name was not intuitive or easy to find. Also, my favorite feature of the previous matrix is that recently added dolls were prominent on home page. A few usability tweaks to this new format will really elevate the great work you've done. Thank you so much!

You're right, the last 10 dolls at the left of the previous Matrix were easiest to look at. Now it's a rotating pic (20 last dolls rotating) but if you miss one you've to wait for many seconds before see (& click) it again :wink:
But now you can use the menu "Other Stuff" then "Lastest News" and the last dolls are visible and clickable :D

Thanks for the feedback(s)

Ooops,
Hit the link 'The Doll Matrix' yesterday and I was more than surprised about the new layout. I took all my time to do some research on dolls or criteria and it works perfectly and more informative.
I imagine the time consuming and meticulously work to achieve a such revamping of the doll Matrix and applause to this great achievement to make TDF a step more perfect again.

Cheers,

:D Guy

^ thanks, for all those who helped :wink:

Updating the listed dolls is easy & accurate, but dealing with the bodies measurements, new doll's models is difficult to keep uptodate so everybody should feel free to post the news or corrections in the Global Matrix Submission Topic :thumbs_up:

I had no idea that a database like this existed and it is incredibly well done! Hats off to everyone who worked on this.
