Is it possible for the various types of GFX stored on this site to be sorted by type, such as if you're looking for player characters, or enemies, or bosses, etc.?

Red Yoshi's GFX Pack is divided in this way. Also, if you download the Community Graphics Pack within each style (SMB3, SMW, etc.) they're divided like this

I think we absolutely need "graphic tags".

I also think this would be interesting to enter in the search engine and write, for example: [SMB3 styled, characters edits, Modern graphics, etc]
Maybe it sounds a bit weird

As someone who has no clue how feasible it would be to add a tag system like that to the forum, I checked with Aero on Discord about another possible solution. She gave the okay to make wiki pages for GFX packs and use categories like "SMB3-styled graphics pack".

Yeah, about that... when the graphics pack was created I had in mind something that could make it easier to try and find the resources by using the OS searching system. But now I'm considering working on something similar to what mfgg and smw central did using filters:
https://mfgg.net/index.php?act=resdb&param=01&c=1
https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=section&s=smwgraphics

Let's hope this idea is taken to fruition, because I personally feel it would help out a lot of people, and would start a beneficial chain reaction--graphics are easier to find, causing SMBX mods to become easier to build, meaning more of them are going to be made.
