It's harder to maintain several link lists than managing only one, and it will be hard for you to keep all those pages up to date. When I took in charge Andre's racedir, it was because he asked me to do so, because he was fed up with it.

Sure you did a huge work indeed, but don't you think it's a bit redundant with what already exists ?

Actually there is more to it then that. I kind of thought the same thing you did but what I didn't notice at first, and you apparently missed it too, is that if you click on the race portraits you can download the shipset from Tescos site directly. So you have the links to the authors page, and then Tesco is offering them for download from his site as well.

Oh, missed that. I think it's a point that should be clearly noticed on the site. It changes a lot of things on the site usefulness...

hi trooper it is two sites....

I have this on the top of the ship set pages in the repository

Please click on the Race Potrait for the zip file.

I thought that was enough.
what are you suggesting i do to make it easier for people to release what they have to do to download the shipsets ???

http://www.spaceempires.net has 243 ship sets hosted in the Downloads > Space Empires IV Gold > Shipsets section. I sent you (Trooper) an email about this several days ago.

I do not have any sort of preview, but then, I am not quite sure how to go about doing that with the existing PHP scripts anyways.

And FYI, I added all of the files to the database (once uploaded) in about 3 seconds with an automated script.

And yes, there is a fairly large number of people that do not have gold and play 1.49 (they either can not buy it or refuse to buy it).

Trooper my friend you are going to post a picture from your wedding right ???

Fyron : I've missed your mail an site too (as I'm progressively going back to life, I realize that I have much work to do...) This is a site that has to be added on the SOTAS's links. I also have to update the racedir, because many new creations have been realized during the Last weeks...

Tesco : No picture available at the moment, but there will be plenty of them...
