Hi apam,

 >> FDN for gaming related files (+1 agree)

 ap> I think I might have been +1, but I'm not so sure now.. if it were
 ap> fsxnet members own creations then yeah, but if it were just
 ap> redistributing files that are easily obtained elsewhere, than I kind
 ap> of think what's the point.

I'm not really across files or what is being done elsewhere to know how much this is needed or even if the base ended up being created, what would be new vs from elsewhere. Hmm. I'd say for a lot of older stuff it may be sorta useful/retro to have those files and mods on tap in the network. I guess it comes down to who wants what and if there's a demand for it. If it's not overly hard to do I can't see much harm in doing it. But it needs people into a specific topic to help drive/populate it.

 >> File area for BBS themes (menus, ANSI, ascii etc.)

 ap> This to my mind should be a part of FSX_ARTS, I don't think there
 ap> needs to be a distinction between art packs and bbs themes.

 ap> Having said that, I would like to see more creations by fsxnet members
 ap> that are able to be passed around, but of course, that hinges on are
 ap> we creating stuff... At present the file areas are pretty limited to
 ap> BBS software + images and text files, but there's no place for
 ap> other creations people may like to share...

 ap> I'd love to see modern 'Demos' people making their own games, either
 ap> for computers or fantasy computers (like pico-8 etc) or just general
 ap> stuff people might like to share.

 ap> Of course, if no ones making anything it's kind of pointless.

OK thanks for the idea :)

 ap> Andrew
