Does this not bother a lot of other people?
Unless I'm missing something, and I don't think I am, there is no way to search and order liveries for individual cars by popularity -- views/likes/downloads/comments/etc. Instead, you search for liveries of a specific car and you're shown every livery made during a period of the last 1-3 days or something like that, and then you have to view "older" periods, again 1-3 days at a time to see more. Why in the hell can't we change the parameters here? Especially if I'm looking for a very specific type of livery, which is another issue entirely. Let's just say "Pennzoil" is my search tag and there's no results at all for the first three periods for a specific car, but one result in the fourth period, none in the next few and then two in the next. Why can it not just fill the page of all liveries made with that tag and THEN require me to hit "older" or "previous" to see another page or however many are left? Why must I needlessly cycle through each period when no such liveries were created? Is this not common sense?
Instead of seeing the best liveries for each car, I can only see the ones most recently made (without endlessly trudging through previous time periods). Thankfully, there are a lot of great livery designers out there and a lot of popular designs have been made countless times so you can get away with it sometimes, but it's an incredibly flawed design. I know there's the "cool selections," "most popular" and "trending" tabs but those are for all cars so it's not as helpful. It's ridiculous that the design is so short-sighted to not have the same options for individual cars once you search.
It's just frustrating because PD have finally made a very capable livery editor and users have been able to make fantastic designs, but there's no way to easily search through them for individual cars. Such wasted potential and very PD/Gran Turismo... Since it hasn't been fixed yet, I don't think enough people are complaining about it. It's a serious problem for me and while I still enjoy searching for liveries because of how many good ones are out there, it could be made a hell of a lot easier and more user-friendly. I'm grateful that PD has made a big step in producing a very respectable livery editor, but because of this oversight it's not being used to its potential and that's a big shame.
The same thing applies for searching for everything else like photos, replays, helmet liveries, etc. Although for some reason I noticed when searching for decals it lists uploads together between much larger periods up to more than a month, meanwhile liveries are displayed 1-3 days at a time... Frustrating.
