If your only reason for doing this is thanks from other members you probably will be disappointed. I've been giving away models since Reebo's Mesh Yard and Lannies 3D Model World were around. The download counters on some objects got into the 5000s. Total downloads over the years for all are above the 50,000 mark. Actual emails of thanks or appreciation have yet to reach 20. If I paid attention to the thanks I'd assume I'm a whopping failure. Counting the number of people who took my work tells another story.
This is a truely impressive script and you should be proud. You should also be doing it for yourself because you want to sharpen your skills, reason, learn, or solve puzzles that few would attempt. You might also do it to impress a software company you want to be hired by.
Free things are worth what you pay for them. Most people will just grab like it's their right, not a gift that's been given them. Few have ever created anything and dont understand the effort it takes. I understand and am willing to say thanks!
