I know something like this would happen one day, but I really couldn't do much to help.

There are now 1000 of skins in this new forum and at the rate you guys make new skins and files, I couldn't keep up, even before this forum was made, I had a backlog of skins to add, still have about 50 or 100 or so.

Now, I could add all the files as you guys upload them, as zips or whatever and just add them, but the quality would be real bad and I don't want that.

When I add new skins to the site, I make fresh clear screenshots that show the skin off without any HUDs or some other thing that corrupts the image than I make two files of the image, a .zip and a .exe as well as adding the forum topic to allow discussions.

I have tried to recruit staff, but no one has stepped up to help or that I have found acceptable to be staff for the Renegade section.

Currently am the only person who works on the Renegade section, while the others maintain their own pet sections.

The reason I haven't had much time to work on the site is that am currently am a student once again, studying Business Studies as well as my GF.

I haven't forgot the site or anything and as you guys have seen, Game-Maps.NET has a brand new look and Shaked who made the new design has made us a new update to fix some bugs.

I try to sort the skins in the correct categories and if anyone spots a file in the wrong place, then tell me, but I think currently most of the files are in the right places, skins wise.

Chew, you share the same idea that am striving for, a site that holds every Renegade skin there is and last year, I was working hard towards that, I visited every site that I know and downloaded every skin from them, I managed to upload a lot to Game-Maps.NET but I still had about 200 or so, than this forum exploded with all the new skins, this was around the time, College happend.

Now currently Game-Maps.NET holds a lot of files and I want more to be added.

I can't promise you guys that I will add new files fast, but I can promise that Game-Maps.NET will forever untill the ends of the Internet, that the site will always remain online and there and even if no one plays Renegade anymore, I will finish that site with every file that I can get my hands on. Razz

If you guys are worried about backups, I can offer a safe place for that.

I played with the idea of offering FTP space on the server for selected modders/skinners who could I could give space too on Game-Maps.NET where you can save your skins too.

I can still give you guys that, if your a skinner/modder, than PM and I can setup space for you, but this only be for Renegade files, this will allow you to have a place to save your skins and share the link with people, it's a cheesy way but safe.

But what I really want is staff who have the same high standards as me.
