| Submit Application |
Before you can submit an application, you need to become a registered GnomeFiles developer (if you already aren't). The process is fairly painless; just enter your email address and pick a password and the system will mail you with a confirmation (warning: Sourceforge tends to filter out the system's emails, so please don't use a Sourceforge email address). Then you can login, and you can go ahead and submit your application! Simple.
All of this is done from GnomeFiles Developer's Corner, which is accessible from any page on the site. It's the link at the top of the page, cleverly labeled "Developers." Now go for it!
If you are not the owner or developer of the application...
This probably won't be the answer you're hoping for, but getting a given application listed on GnomeFiles isn't up to us!
We can't actually add applications to GnomeFiles ourselves (except maybe in the beginning of the site, while it is in the process of getting more known); we leave that up to the person or company who developed and/or published the application. There are a number of reasons for this, but the most important reasons are time and accuracy. If we had to do everything ourselves, we would miss important details and everything would go out of date really fast. It's a better solution all around to have the developers do it.
So what can you do if you'd like to see an application listed? Find out who wrote it or is responsible for it, email that person, and ask them to submit the application to GnomeFiles.
A few users have done this already, and we've found that when the users of GnomeFiles are the ones asking, developers are much more likely to submit their apps and keep them up to date than if it had been us asking. It lets them know that you care and that it's worth their time to get their apps listed on GnomeFiles.
So go ahead and ask... you'll help make the site better for everyone!
