Needs better looks.

Meteo,

This post is bordering on being in the wrong forum. While the graphic does meet the minimum requirements for this forum it is still apparent that the main point of this post is to put up stats.

This post technically belongs in the Custom Ships Et Cetera forum. If you are posting a graphic to justify putting stats in this forum you aren't following the spirit of the rule.

Thank you,
Joshua.

...It was less shaded than most of my other, later designs, and Torg had the details which I matched: three (or more) views, and greater size.

Plus, I had already finished the purpose of archiving an old ship, and was not willing to add anything else here.

[thescreamingswede]

Fisher, where does it state that a schematic cannot include stats?

[Gorn]

eh, I would just assign this thread to wherever it's sposed to belong rather than make a whole discussion of it. It's all a learning curve, isn't it?

[Meteo Ascension]

...What? It's already got the 3-Views, and the Size... (If you magnify it...) So, what's the problem? Plus, I have no intention of putting up anything else up here, and other Gorn ships, as well as this one, are archived, esp. with my latest bout of occasional creativity.

[JAFisher44]

I said bordering on...

The point of this forum is for showing off graphics that you have created. The way you post your threads it comes off as "Here are some ship stats. Oh, yeah, and a graphic to justify posting them here."

Posts in this forum should be more of the, "Here is a graphic of a ship." and maybe sometimes, "Also, these are the stats for the ship pictured." The stats should not be the main point of the thread.

I agree with Fisher, the post should have been in the Custom Ships Et Cetera forum.

The graphics for it are are minimal and tiny.

Gorn: Why do you have such a large signature picture? That shouldn't be allowed.

[Gorn]

No idea.
I would guess it's the size the pic is on the hosting site.
I have no idea how to resize it.

That's assuming most members/forum host want it resized...someone already said they loved my models.

[Meteo Ascension]

...Yeah, that shouldn't. And it was actually an older design I decided to archive, plus, you can just click it to enlarge, can't you?

...And, the graphic was also a little bit more of the point, since it was one of the first Gorn designs I did, and it was intended to look different, from other gorn ships.
