Sorry we can't help, but I have to say, she did a really wonderful job, these are spectacular. Sharen

And if anyone needs more than my word on the quality of these reflection maps (because they really do rock! G) then I'm sure those I've already shared them with will be happy to give their opinions too... (pssst.... this is where my beta testers should pipe up G)

Thanks Sharen, I appreciate the thought though :) And I think she did too.... and that's not a proud papa talking lol!

I probably could... How big is the file (zipped)?

Well I'm sorry to say that I can't host them, but I'll be sure to snag them up if someone else can!!

Can you break them into 2 downloads?? I can host them, but the download size will turn most people away.

It's about 9 and a half Megs right now. Is that too big? I may be able to shave a wee bit of that off...

we can also split them into two packs... that wouldn't be a problem!

Hmm, well I'm sad to say that my site (which I pay for) has a monthly bandwidth limit. That would probably kill me. This is why I can't post pictures of my free items at Rosity because everytime a pic loads, I lose width. Maybe you should take up LadySilverMage's offer due to the heavy size. Are the graphics bitmaps or jpgs? I'm very good at optimizing graphics without losing noticable quality. Perhaps I could help bring the size down without you having to remove any of the content.

I'd say the 9mb is a problem :-) I have a package of 10 free textures for Vicky that several are compalingin about the size and it is only 2.04mb but on a dialup that is a large amount of time. I'd suggest breaking them up into several zips - that way people can pick and choose and download as they have the time :-) They look excellent btw

Thanks kindly Khepricaun :) They are .jpgs, and are fully optimized. I appreciate your offer though! I wouldn't have this problem if I'd just fork over some money for a site of my own...but that's not in the cards for the near future sigh. And I'm cheap too, lol - pennies fear me G

Thanks LSM :) several zips... I could do 4 packs of 8... let me go see what size that would bring them down to. BRB S

The largest is 2.89 mg. My condolences to those on dialup by the way :)

Lol! BTW, I'm only paying $7 a month, no banners, direct linking, 250 mb space, 3 Gigs bandwidth per month. Though it seems the bandwidth can get eaten pretty fast.

USD though? That's at least $11 in Canadian money, though you're right, that's not a bad price a'tall.

Wow! Those are great looking. I would love to have them. I would offer to host the files for you, but as many here already know I have been suffering some on again off again web hosting probs of my own. Also, for us still on slow dial up connections it would help if you could break that 9+ mbs down into smaller packets. Maybe three 3 mbs files or something? Even at 9+ though I would grab them - or at least try. They really do look excellent!

Thanks all :) Lalverson is hosting the largest of the four, so I have three more to divy up.... If you can accept 2 and a bit files in your email and would be willing to host any of them, send me an email at: styxx@sympatico.ca and I send you some. or I can upload them to my artist pack and send you the links :)) Thanks again!

Hey, when they're up, you gonna post the links here as well as freestuff? 8-) PS: Tell your daughter I said she was a GENIUS

Thanks Valander :) I'll tell her when she wakes up.. :) I'll be sure to post the links here as well as free stuff.

I can "host" all 9MB's of it. I have extra space. All I need to do it get the files.

THank you LdyMox! That's great! perhaps we could offer a full download for fast connections and the split up ones for dialups... Seems like a plan to me :)) You have all been wonderful. Bree says thankyou to everyone.. :)))

If you want you can make see sets, 1 full and 1 split up I think I can handle it all. I only used 30,145K of a 3 gig bandwith limit last month and I have a few hundred MB's of space.

Ok so I used 158,971K..heheh still not even close to a 3 Gig limit

How much(MB's) in other stuff do you need costed?

I mean hosted

Please don't tell if your daughter is in grade school - don't want to demoralize the old folks here. Nice work!

lol gryffnn :) Okay, I won't tell you she's just turned 8. VLG LdyMox, My other free stuff is way too much to ask anyone to host for me - but I thank you kindly for the thought :) I'll be emailing you later this morning, as soon as I wake up, lol.

Ok. Maybe it would be best to split them up. If someone has a faster connection well they can just download all the files. I still can hold all the reflection maps, I just wanna make it easier for people.

Ah, I'mm back - sorry I went to bed :-/ If you still need soeone to host any of them, let me know, but it looks like it's covered now :-)

Otherwise mail me at tjmiller@datc.tec.ut.us; I can host your files here as part of the Hot Lab we have at the school. Regd's, /P

bandwidth and space are pretty much unlimited here; we have an OC-12 installed, and the server is an Apache box in the secure portion of my lab :) /P

My Deepest thanks to everyone for all of your kind offers! I think I am going to go with Penguinisto due to the unlimited bandwidth. I would feel horrible if I caused someone to pay for extra bandwidth due to my files. Once again, My deepest thanks. The generosity here is heart warming! Cheers, Noel
