Do you want me to set up a presentation of PowerPoint or somethin for the
MLCADing and such or is Tim or Steve (Anyone more knoledgeable then me)
gonna be there? I can start to make MLCAD screenshots of my ships in
progress, a completed model, and a full render as 'Progress Photos' Maybe
Even I will scrounge up some of my notebook paper 'idea sheets' alot of my
ships started on those. I will look my ships over and copy them down to
vote. Maybe I will make a voting page.

I am calling Kinkos TODAY to see how much it costs to get 6 18"x22"
printout/blowups. I will hold vote to see which of 6 of my stuff will make
the cut. Calling now... Kinko's is $29.99 per 18/24 full color...Mail Box
Etc dont do em... If I cant get anything good in price, I will just do them
on 8 1/2" x 11". Mosiac effect might work too. They are all in the $30 per
pic range and I dont have that much. So 8.5" x 11" is size it seems.

(...) Well, I still think the following would do well: a) An example of previous space series sets (as you suggested above, Scott) since it is good promotional material for adults who are interested in getting back into the craft. b) A MOC section (...)
