AlgDb.NET

Just seeing PLL, OLL, COLL without an explanation is a little bit of a pain. I know that everyone should know what these mean, but not everyone does. Having the full form makes viewing less esoteric and better for nooobies ;)

Also I think the graphics shouldn't be oriented for ease of execution. They should be put in a way such that it is easy to recognize the case without doing the reverse alg (for COLL). Might want to use the graphics that the speedsolving wiki database uses for the PLLs too, although I can tell which permutation it is, many can't, so I am reluctant to hand this out to beginners who want to find algorithms for themselves.

It is even worse for the COLL since recognition methods vary a lot more. A top down view with all relevant sticker colors shown, would work much better.
 
I wanted to add my CMLL list, but then I found there are no CMLLs there. Is it possible to make one? I would be happy if I (and other Rouxers) could share their algorithm sets too.

I emailed Stachu asking for more sets and he said that in about 2 months there will be a rework with more substeps.
 
As mentioned, AlgDB is on my backburner for a little bit.
I'm in the middle of a few cubing applications:
- Small secret thing.
- Timer that works on any device (Web/Android/iOS/WinPhone8/Win8/Tizen)
- AlgDB mobile and AlgDB rework

These will be released in this order.
If someone wants to help with AlgDB and knows .NET, I'm more than happy to open-source.
 
This site is really cool.

I noticed one small glitch whilst ticking my algs... I ticked a couple by mistake but after unticking them I still show up in the list of people using the algs.

Examples are PLL Nb and OLL 44.
 
Update: Added ZBLL cases for T and U. Feel free to contribute. ZBLL should be finished this week.
Also, expect some pretty big (and existant!!) updates to AlgDb in the coming days.

All data will persist, but the whole experience will be a lot better. Thanks to LazyEinstein for finally pushing this!

(also, thanks to the SS database for dying, necessitating this.)
