Finally. I got in today for the first time in over a month. I updated all the files, and ditched a bunch of the older stuff.

If you would like any of your files uploaded to this site as a mirror, please post here or send me an email at [email protected] alternate email [email protected]

Thanks for your patience and such. (now stop by and check it out.

)

I just visited your site and I have one suggestion - maybe display a picture from each of the shipsets availible for download so the people can get an idea of what the set looks like. For example, I have no idea how the starblazer ships look like...otherwise keep up the excellent work!!!

Us little sites got to stick together. I jokingly made a picture of a Spoogy Cruiser destroying one of Hyperion Base's ships - and boy was that Hadrian Mad. He posted a link to my site and rated in one out of five saying I don't know nothing about role-playing - plus he sent an email. Something about him being a mighty general, blah blah.

I was just joking around, geez.

Thanks for the feed back. However, most of the ship sets are at 36 x 36 or 128 x 128 pixels resolution, and would look horrible it I tried to display them. I lack the skills to make them look good.

Maybe you should move your page to tripod. I find it really easy to upload my files and you get 50MBs of storage space. I haven't had a single problem with Tripod yet.

For the pictures to look good, just use one of the 128x128 picture ands convert to a .gif file and it would look almost exactly the same - it uses less colours but you can't really tell the difference. You can even do it in paintbrush, just go to Save As and change from bitmap to gif!

Also, it's Patrick Stewart (with a K)...

Just an after thought. I ditched most of the older files, although I still have them, they will have to be sent over ICQ as I have dropped them completely from the sites drive in order to save space.

Feed back is very much appreciated, and welcomed. Thanks again.
