    Just like the title says, it's getting messy.

    I completely agree with you, everyone should just have one thread and update the OP.

    I must admit, it was also aimed at you.
    But this has been going on for quite a while now.
    You can edit the first post easily, and make everything even more compact and effective, also you can edit your title, so you don't have to scroll down at all
    also, if you have good skins, people will be coming back to the thread, and they can find all your high quality skins easily. (I must say yours were pretty good!).
    So if you also don't want to get your skins lost in the mess of threads, please, just make one big nice looking, appealing thread, this works well and just keeps everything cleaner.
    This is just my oppinion, and if you don't agree, so be it. I am also no moderator, so I can't change the rules (wich there are none atm.)

    The thing is, if you have a new thread for every skin, you will have to go page after page to find something you think is good.
    Look at for example that 'le swagg van' and stuff, if that was in one thread you could be like "I don't like his work, so I won't look at it", but now you need to go through multiple threads of his to find something you do like.

    And you can just edit the original post with whatever updates you might get.

    It's much more organized and easier to keep track of people you like the work of.

    I care, it becomes spam.

    I hope someone make a script where you can upload your skins and tag what it is and what car it's for, like a gallery you can search trough.

    All these guys are saying is that if you create skins pretty often for a lot of things, then just make one big post and keep updating it.

    For example, tom666 could just make one post that says "Tom666's Skins" and the first post gets updated, new stuff gets added on to what's already there. The post could be locked, somehow if at all, so that only tom666 can post, so he can post and say something like, "*Added [insert name here] skin for van" so it shows when he last posted, which indicates when he adds something new.

    Now, I'm not saying that tom666 is being annoying, in fact I think the way tom666 does it works very well. He has his Van skins in one thread and his Marshall skins in another thread. He keeps it separate.

    Tom, however, all j0pak95 was saying is, instead of just posting with the attachments, could you also update your first post so they don't have to go through every single page to find something? By updating your first post with your newest skin, along with posting that you added a new skin, it puts all of your work in one place that is viewable instantly. If you don't want to do it, okay, then don't. The guy was just giving you his opinion. He wasn't shouting into the street because of one person.

    J0pak is also saying that there be a thread where people post their skins, and then someone, a mod preferably, edits the first post to include the newly posted skins so it's all in one place. The post could be categorized by vehicle and then a picture of the skin, with the name of the author and a download link directly below it.

    They just want to centralize where everything is so it's easier to find. They aren't saying skins shouldn't be posted or that they don't DESERVE their own thread. They're just saying have a place where people can go to find all of the skins at once.

    I'm neutral here, but I saw a simple idea with the potential to get bashed by people who don't get what these guys are trying to say.

    Okays? :)
