Well, I shut down my google+ account and have no plans to reactivate it ;). I'm already dodgy about google's privacy polices...lol.
As for files, I have my own website as well and can place stuff there for people to download if need be.
I do of course have the time to manage a small group, but in the very near future I will be moving. After that, I have time :). I can set it up awhile tho if that's what ya want. There are all sort of free forums and free websites I can use if none of you have a real preference.
BTW, I'd like to do clothes and things for Mike and/or David as well. The men can't go about naked (even it it would be nice...lol). I can even make a list of where I got all my reference material so you guys can get it as well if you need it. Normally tho, I just look for things like ladies and gentlemens magazines of the period like the Delineator (for ladies) which are all now in the public domain. Internet Archives and Google Books is a good place to start. In Google books for instance, you can constrain your search to a specific time period such as 1880-1910 for ladies fashions or whatever you're looking for. Most of what I have came from those two sites ;). I have some super nice material from the time....some of them even having color plates which is nice to get an idea of the colors in vogue at the time and even some simple patterns if you wanna be a real stickler for authenticity...hehe. I'll try and make a list of the better ones.
