Very nice. I've just downloaded and used all the newly updated ones. Thats all of em then.<P>I have a couple of questions about Morfeo's assuming he read this at some point. Although others could answer this. Two of the pics represent the Nebulon-G and a TIE simply labelled T-O-2. <P>First has anybody ever OPTed the Nebulon-G and does anybody know what the TIE design is?.<P>Anyway all the new pics are far better than the originals and far more pleasing to the eye.

AA, you could have used that pic directly as a link, just imput the pics address in the box when it assks for a description. you didnt have to put the link under it.

Hello everyone.<P>Sorry DS, I dont.<P>Note that I did those pics using the computers at my work, during that very boring weekend night shift.<P>The only convertion that was done was from the 24bit (most pics came out from the Internet this way, JPEG or something) to 256bit, which is what XWA can hanble. I used Paint for this. I used Photoshop to re-size the pic, but that program didint have the convertion option.I think, I really didint dig for answers. The first pic that I did, I only re-size it. Datatech, then told me about 24bit/256bit deal when I attemted to add it to Skirmish.<P>With the exeption of the Modified Action Transport, all the other pics taken from the Rebellion site came in GIF format. No decrease in pic quality during the convercion. Mmmmm... I also found a pic of the T/D in this format elsewhere.<P>Now if there is a way for XWA to acept a pic with 24bit quality, then you got me.<P>Apparently, most of the pics lost where the first ones, those that I sended to you Ace straight in BMP format. Some ISDs and the frontal shot of the CRS where lost. If you happend to bump into these, send them to my E-Mail.<P>Thank again, for posting my pics ACE :)<P>-MorfeoMKII-

We all need some therapy, because somebody came along and said 'liberal' means soft on crime, soft on drugs, soft on Communism, soft on defense, and we're gonna tax you back to the Stone Age because people shouldn't have to go to work if they don't want to. And instead of saying 'Well, excuse me, you right-wing, reactionary, xenophobic, homophobic, anti-eductaion, anti-choice, pro-gun, "Leave it to Beaver" trip back to the fifties,' we cowered in the corner and said 'Please, don't hurt me.' No more. I really don't care who's right, who's wrong. We're both right. We're both wrong. Let's have two parties, huh? What do you say?"

yeah me too. I used to know how, but I screwed them up bad last week. I guess playing Morrowind nonstop for 6 months can do that too you. :D

I can generally get the skirmish pics to work, but one little mistake meant I have to redo the entire section.<p>[ 04 March 2003: Message edited by: Major Wes Janson ]
