I made Thread called "Attention Shipset Builders" but got very little response.

I for one would love to see some of your ships rendered larger and at different angles to make some very interesting montages. (ie: A nice big Colony ship heading away from the cam towards a perfect huge Rcok/Oxygen planet.)

I'm sure that Fyron wouldn't mind hosting the pics in the Image Gallery over at SE.net.

Nuf said, Cheers!
Oh I will take you up on this David, however I am far too lazy to do it at the moment.

As computer engineer and part time web designer myself I would like to point out few things of that site. With all respect to web designer, this is meant for friendly advice.

That site hurt my eyes. I looked it about 5 seconds and I had no will to look it any longer. The colors of the text are too bright for the black background.

For example look at this forum. Light brown background and black text. I can read this forum for hours and my eyes are not tiring. Use colors, which are not contradictory. Pastel colors are excellent in this. Here is few combinations you could try (do not use bright colors unless you want to make something to be especially seen):

Light brown background and black text (like in this forum).
Light blue and beige.
Green background and black text.


If you insiste black background, use light brown font and make it bigger. Usually, the darker the background, the bigger the font. Also if you want to make something to be noticed, normal red test is perfect in that.

Atro, it is slightly OT maybe, but do you plan any latest gold patch related updates on astmod? If so, what is the approx. ETA?

Appreciate it.

CNC and I will be doing a major update to the AST mod as soon as I get the latest Version of the STM done and released. (Very soon I hope.)
