Stuart is far too nice.  He's a kook that should be ignored.

 This sounds like a great idea.  Please let me know what I can do to

snipping various criticisms

Denigrating people whose marketing help we would like on a public
mailing list isn't exactly going to warm them to us, is it Arnt?

If you don't have anything nice to say about someone, it's usually better
not to say anything at all.

 mailing list isn't exactly going to warm them to us, is it Arnt?

..having spent over half an hour on his X-plane 10 First Look video, 
I honestly don't see why we would want to annoy people that same way, 
I was annoyed.  Short teaser videos is the way to go, e.g. one per
question, or point, or feature.

 If you don't have anything nice to say about someone, it's usually
 better not to say anything at all.

..and some times brutal truths must be told.  This guy has potential,
but he blows it all away with me with his overlenght and oversize
nonsense.  Cut the crap, get to the points, also visually.  That 
includes the crappy oversize white banner left over half the panel 
and over way too much of the scenery that at least I wanted to see.  

..move it out of the way, make it transplarent, put your face
in it, or make it a watermark style banner.  Fade it from 
white will also work, should also work for the crowd who likes 
his current style.

 (For any third party reading this, Arnt's comments are not usually a
 reflection of the general view of the FG community, as a perusal of

..am I the only one who would like to see him able to put his face 
right next to the radio stack?  Would also work with Atlas and other
moving map etc window apps that we etc might wanna test.

..a valid point you could have made, is my all ideas no code 
contribution.  Not my choice, I've been too busy fighting off 
Statoil.com since 2005, their straw men bought the workshop I 
built my thermochemical gasifier in, they don't want me nor my 
clients making power from crap.  Zero code until I have a new 
place.  

..another valid point is I don't waste my time watching TV, which 
over time makes you a stranger in your own country, TV spoon feed 
has a strong dumbing down influence on culture, premier case in 
point are the in all senses of the word, _cheap_ reality shows.

..first, have the podcaster guy lose the white paint in that 
annoying big ass white banner background.  Banner text is ok, 
and watermark text with a transplarent background, would be 
nice _and_ sexy.

..second, have the podcaster guy get his face acreage outta 
the cockpit window view and into some vacant panel space, 
say next to the radio stack.  (We can control this on a per 
view basis from FG?)

..third, have the podcaster guy make short teaser videos to 
the teaser points he or we want made, rather than these, er, 
overlength filings.
