It's still going through testing, but here's a color pack for the new stingray prototype package.

It's the color pack I've been talking about, and yes!  Of course I am!  Everything I mak I upload as freeware to SimV.  But right now, this one's still going through testing.  So it may take a day or two to get up on the site.

No, here's what happened.
The file size ended up about 102Mb, so they thought that it had models and everything, while it really only had the textures, the thing you add to the cfg file, a readme, and some thumbnail pictures.  So I got a PM saying they thought it had models and everything.
I Pm'ed back telling them that it only had the textures pictures and two text files.  The reason they were so big is becuase each texture by itself is a little over 40Mb by itself uncompressed.  Multiply that by 16, add the thumbnails and the two text files, and it ended up at aproximatley 666Mb.  Compression managed to get it down to 102Mb, (thank goodness), but they said it was still too much for one upload of just textures.  So I'm going to have to take some time to make each of the 16 a seprate download.  So it may take a day or two.  And then probably another 5 minutes - till early next morning for it to go though the simV testers.

All in all, quite an exhuasting expeirience. :P
