The Cutting Room Floor has always strived to be different from other sites by showcasing unused/prototype content that still exists in available ROMs or disc images. Because of this, I ask that you not submit videos or magazine/brochure screenshots of prototype or unreleased games, unless you are using them to illustrate how something in a ROM was used at some point in the development process.

It's incredibly disappointing to go to a site like X-Cult, see a section marked "unused levels," and click it only to be greeted with a grainy black-and-white magazine shot of something that sort of resembles an unused level, without any real data to back it up. How can you even be sure that level isn't just a mockup, pieced together from graphics that never really existed in a ROM? (If you're familiar with the Sonic 2 "Dust Hill Zone" fiasco, you know what I'm talking about.)

Sites like that are a dime a dozen, and while it's interesting to see what may have been, quite frankly I'm growing tired of rampant speculation and rumors. I much prefer cold, hard data: stuff I can see and hear for myself, stuff that I can poke with a hex editor and see what makes it tick. Real proof of what may have been.

In the future, if the demand is great enough, we may create a separate section devoted to preview videos and screenshots (The Speculation Bucket? ), but for now, I'd rather not clutter up the wiki with them.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
