      Remus,

      Please, also make sure to post materials created of images that are not copyrighted in any way. Often they are free for personal (or even commercial) use but they cannot be added to other collections or shared elsewhere.

          Hi Remus,

          I've been thinking about the same thing. I have a collection of old English buildings, mostly churches, and I often find it useful to use elements from one in another model, e.g. roof tiles for a building where I can't easily photograph the roof, but I have a similar one from another building.

          Let me know when you start your 3DW collection and I'll make some contributions.

          Regards,
          Tom

          Tom

              Hi Remus,

              This sounds great, when do you think you will be making them available.

              Kind regards

              Darren

                Well ive just downloaded a load of jpgs. Next step will be to check theyre all ok, do any resizing/touching up in photoshop, rename them all to something more intuitive and then import in to SU. Hopefully before friday, maybe even by the end of the weekend if i ge some spare time.

                  Great idea Remus, I can contribute too, I have plenty I've photographed/created myself, so no copyright problems

                    Hmmm, well ive done it, but nearly all the files are bigger than the 4mb upload limit.

                    Id really like to avoid splitting the files up, so does anyone have any cunning plans?

                    They're already zipped btw.

                    Edit: no worries guys, im going to use rapidshare.

                      There you go, enjoy. BTW the files will becoem inactive after they havent been downloaded for more than 90 days. Can anyone think of a more permanent solution?

                            Juan, the problem with that solution is that none of the textures will be correctly sized, so its a real pain when you need to apply lots of materials if you have to resize them all as you go. Thanks for the pointer though.

                              what do you mean exactly? they will become inactive where they are stored? will something similar occur to them in my HD?

                                The website theyre hosted on deletes any files that havent had a download in 90 days.

                                They definetly WONT be deleted form your hard drive 👍

                                  I'm hoping Gaieus could host them on the SCF server, I've had endless problems trying to download stuff from Rapidshare when using the free service.

                                  Save the Earth, it's the only planet with chocolate.

                                      after you download the first file they make you wait progressively longer periods of time for the next free downloads.

                                      i managed to do it over a period of one and half days.

                                            Very often the code you have to enter to get the download started doesn't work - even though you entered it accurately and correct.

                                            I've used rapidshare in the past quite successfully, but it was with a paid membership.

                                            Also, please don't go the "MegaUpload" route, I (and I think a lot of other people) don't want to install another toolbar just to download something.

                                            Save the Earth, it's the only planet with chocolate.
