[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON Sep-12-02 AT 02:09AM (EDT)[/font][p]Hi,

I have just posted another B727 texture to my site for your flying pleasure - a Mike Stone B727 in a Lufthansa livery as recommended and requested by Thomas H. of Germany

She is of course available at http://www.gjsmith.com/textures/b727.htm

Over 250 Free Textures now on:

With now more than 250 free textures and 60 other textures for personal use, I was wondering to myself what magic number I have to achieve for texture releases before I am considered for one of those great awards from the various major FS sites

Then again, maybe I need to still improve the level of quality on my textures!!!! - criteria sure beats me - but it would be nice to know what I must achieve to be qualified to meet the high level criterion and that I am providing an appropriate service to the FS community. (Just wondering aloud)

I don't know what you have to do Gary, but I will say I've probably downloaded a couple of dozen of your textures, and found that they are all magnificant. As far as I'm concerned you certainly deserve recognition. THANK YOU!!!!!! for all your work.

Usually awards are given to items that are posted at that particular site itself, not an independant site. You do nice work my friend and your name is known all around the sim community.

Garry,

you got my vote anytime! just point me in the direction where to put it.

as Don Moser pointed out, could be that it requires the files on an larger official flight sim site for most awards!

PS. I'll be back soon with the 707..! but, busy, busy...

Subtle hint, huh, Garry... ? :-lol

Anyway, I think what had been said is true. You'd probably need to upload files to be qualifyable. But if you can point me somewhere where I can cast my vote, I'll be one of the firsts to do so... :-)

We all appreciate your work Garry. I am always looking out for your next release.

All the best,

Thanks good people,

Well the curse is that I pump out so many (and edit to requests) that if I was to post them to the various FS sites as well I would be spending all of my time and resources in just pushing textures to the FS sites (only have a 56k link).

That seems to be a problem, either I continue to do textures or spend buckets of time and resources posting them to the FS sites and do less of them.

I think I would rather tinker and give through my site than to waste the resources and time - so I guess NO awards for me.

Consider ALL our thanks as your trophy buddy. I have a 56K modem too. These are small files. You may not want to post all your goods, but once in a while is probably all it would take. Pick some of your favorites (The ones that are rated for all age groups! LOL!!) and post them. Worth a shot. If not, as always, you have my thanks!
