Rick, I just go to download the files. Like the one that Gary just invited us to download.
I don't intend to participate in the forum, to be candid. So, as you mention, I'm just joining to get the files. While I do understand the bandwidth issue, you might consider that every graphic, every page and every banner that gets downloaded adds to your bandwidth - the bandwidth used by the model downloads is quite possibly not the big offender. Check your access logs to see if this isn't the case. But I'm a tired, old dog and don't care to do tricks on command for superfluous reasons. It takes time away from my model development. That's why instead of hosting them in a forum, Niels hosts them on his site for me. Sorry, Joy, who's going to try and get someone to email Gary's Seaview and LotG models to her [email protected] - she needs her Pilsworth fix.

Actually Joy, You will be able to download the files, once you post a small introduction post, and the download section and the rest of the forum opens up for you. We have that in place to limit just people joining to just get the files, it does eat up bandwidth. Just a small check on our part to save us some money.
