Question/request answered.

Might be worth locking this now admins before we go to the normal 'war'.

Give me your email and I will send the skins as attachments.

S!

Hello Owl,

not bad at all but here, from what I can see, would be the improvements I would like you to do :

-Nose Art : If I fly with markings on, the Ensignia of the squadron will cover it. Can you put the girl more forward on the nose, and of course, just on one side, the left one ? Can you also make it a bit bigger ?

- Tail section : the victories are taking to much space on it. Remember that there's a swastika to add on the marked skin and that there's also the "default" swastika appearing on the tail section when you turn the markings on. This has to be fixed. They have just to be smaller, and on the rudder only

- Markings : the crosses are good but the letters are a bit too "new", "shiny", if you know what I mean. Can you make them slightly more weathered ?

Otherwise I like it. If you can make derivates of it for me then I'll be happy. Indeed, this camouflage looks like early war camo. Can you make me also a middle war and a late war skin ?

Of course all with and without markings.

Thank you very much.

If he had concerns, as a moderator he should have had the sense to express them in PMs with the mods here. As Owl's friend and a admin on his modding forum, I've seen him do some nice things. He can do them, and again, screaming about how he can't do anything in the open is yelling for a flame war. If your posting here is anything like what AAA is like, I'm glad I'm not a member there.

And yet he's put me in one, as admin of his modding forum.

Number one, that's owls forum...obviously if that's his site he'll be admin, so that point holds no water.
Second, PM's are wasted on Owl; he posted this topic out in the open for all of us to read and reply, and that we did. Owl has ignored all advise, and only posted back with some skins of his. If TD are after skinners, no offence but they'll choose the best of the bunch. Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind, and I think here I am being kind to the community here. Again, no offence meant, but I am entitled to an opinion. (although people should have a say in what they d/l, I will say that much )
My posting is different at AAA because I am a moderator. I have read my posts back and apart from the one near-miss edited (thanks for that) I don't see much wrong with them. My comments may not be nice for Owl, but I can be assured that many people agree with me. Again, I am sorry if I have upset you, but please: Owl is old-enough to reply for himself to our posts, so I will wait his reply in anticipation.

Back on topic. Owl has come up with the goods, or at least he hasn't had his work rejected out of hand - lets all keep him out of trouble by finding him another skin to do. Any requests?

Exactly. AAA don't just choose random people; if you can't do the job you get chopped; simple. I wouldn't be a moderator there if I did a bad job, believe me when I say this. However, if you have an issue with me, then go ahead and take it up with Monguse or DM (etc) They read this boards and I have no messages from them to say you're chopped. I don't enjoy being a moderator all the time, as AJ stated it is thankless, but unlike you I have a lot more posts to deal with during the day. Owl's forum may get a post a week, if that.

I agree. This thread should have been locked almost from the start. I'll say a few more things here before that happens.

From Lucas's link:
Hold on a minute...

So all the time you were saying that you were an ace and all that BS and you only started playing online THREE DAYS AGO?!

Mate, you're no ace, that's for sure.

For your own good, start playing some real simulation instead of just a game.

Doesn't sound very constructive to me, and mixing it with constructive criticism elsewhere will not sound very constructive to anyone else. Oktoberfest's post is a much better example of constructive criticism.

I've had my share of posts to deal with too, so don't get too cocky.

[philip.ed]

I'm not getting cocky, just stating fact. AAA has some 40,000 members, so read that in whatever way you wish. Obviously they don't all post but let's be reasonable, my statement is justified.

Owl, like some had said, keep on keeping on. Don't let some disturb you. You can't learn if you don't try. Just keep your focus. You'll get there. If you'll make good job at it, you'll get noticed. And don't worry if some reject you or bash you. Happened to all of us at some point

[nearmiss]

This is a forums designed to support and maintain a community for 1C Company users.

Moderators are not into competing or on a power trip around here. We want out members to share and be tolerant of each other.

There are rules and prohibited content. Some things we deal with post-haste, but for the most part we want our members not to think they have to constantly be worried about getting banned by a moderator.

Owl is a 13 year old. Most of us are adults. I don't think 99% of us would go on so, if we were face to face with an inquisitive 13 year old kid.

If you have a complaint about a user or thread it is an annoyance when you make an issue in the questionable thread.

Moderators aren't constantly reading every line written, therefore a thread can go on quite awhile before we pick up on troubling issues.

All you have to do is click on the little red triangle with the exclamation point in the upper right corner to report a thread. Moderators will get an email quickly thereafter.

Moderators aren't your adversary on 1C, even though some borderline troublemakers want to think of us that way.

[Modding_Monkey]

Nearmiss. Before you get jumped one. He is 14 remember.

Pillip.ed. I need to send you a PM about on of your posts there as I completely disagree. But this is done by PM.

Owl. Skin is looking good. I agree with Oktoberfest about the small fixes you need to make.

[philip.ed]

Yes, I have no issue with Owl; just the way he goes about doing things. I have tried to teach him, but to no avail. So sorry Owl if I've upset you, but it is quite sad for someone when they try to help you and their advise is ignored, or just falls on deaf ears.
