Hello, this is my first post here ever, pardon me if I'm doing something wrong or this request already exists. I just saw the new interface and personally, I think it looks clean and awesome. Gotta appreciate the work of the UI/UX designers

Since it's been like maybe some days that this rolled out globally, I think it's a good timing to make a feature request. This should be a simple one (I know, it's not always THAT simple on the surface)

Usually, I look for cool sounds and download some as I go. Most of the time the sounds are in different licenses, so I can't keep track of all the samples' licenses to attribute to them later unless I made an extra effort to actually keep a note of them along with the audio file.

So that's exactly what I usually do: I create a text file for each sound I got with exactly the license of that sample in specific for the future me to go "hey, this is the license of that sound and that's what I have to do/can do to use it". I checked the ID3 metadata of the sounds I downloaded and only the creator's username seems to be saved... no URLs, no license...

It would be nice to have a button to download a text file with licensing information about that sample, as well as a link of the creator of that sound in specific. This will be pretty convenient specially if you want to use that sound later, so you just download along with the sample and it's all good.

Let me know if that's a reasonable feature, or if I'm missing something.
Thanks!

So reasonable that it's there

Reachable by clicking on your profile icon, and then on Attribution

Wow I didn't see this there! Page name is slightly unintuitive, reminds me more like a "History" page, it's even sorted by date by default...

This works for my needs, I still would like to have a separated TXT, because then I can also save the desired attribution (if they have like a website or a real name they wanna be attributed) but that should help a lot in the process already. Thanks for the link, have a great day

You're welcome, a great day to you too
