    I've just took a look at how reputation increases and found that only one of my article is now helping my reputation, i.e.: Introduction to PayPal for C# - ASP.NET developers[^] This article was quite helpful also: Versatile WebCam C# library[^] But since I was trying to collaborate with others, I've moved my source code to GitHub repository. Now, the problem is - source code downloads no longer count - i.e. when people go to GitHub and download source, obviously CodeProject can't take those downloads into account. So, I am wondering - is it possible to solve this problem in some way? Like count click on "Download source" link as a download? Obviously you guys at CodeProject are also interested in supporting scenario where readers of the article can submit pull requests. And we, authors, should get credit - i.e. not get penalized if we are making our source available as Git repo rather than simple zip file. If you have any suggestion how I can do both (keep my GitHub repo and get reputation credit for source download on CodeProject) - please let me know.
