P-47 roster is about full even if they had one submitted today they would not get in game in time.

I think I submitted Kenny Giroux's Jug as a D-11 way back when and never heard anything back on it.

Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

That's a great one Treize!, as much as I like the 56thFG, its time to retire one of those OD skins.

Lyric, how do we get them to adopt an existing submission. Is there anyone to tap on the shoulder?

Let's use Treize69's fine submission that is already in the roster~ There are five 56thFG skins in the group already. Surely one OD white nose band jug could be rotated out for some diversity.

I wouldn't hold your breath waiting to get a skin rotated in.

In the meantime, 35FG/39FS by rogerdee is a PTO D-11 that's ingame right now.

I don't even know if they ever got mine to approve or add to the list, I don't ever recall getting an acceptance or rejection letter. I sent it in at the same time as my Corky IV that was rejected, but thats the last I remember of it. I don't even think I still have it to try and resubmit, I'm not on that comp any more.

Make another! Its a good one, and a bare metal Burma skin and Checkertail skin  :cheers: I'll keep making a stink until the forces that be see the wisdom and relent! :lol

I've really got to get cracking on making skins myself though. Just going over the threads, It doesn't seem that easy to make a really good one.

If it's "for the terrain" the default skins can be changed and planes added in their place.

Are you referring to using new skins in offline play or changing default for other existing skins Fencer?

You can add a new skin to a terrain at the time of building and that new skin replaces the original default (as the new default).

Really, I did not know that. That is pretty interesting.

Did you changing default skins on your new Pacific terrain Ranger? Could they be completely new skins or just one of the existing accepted skins?

It seems like in FSO or even Twin Rivers Dessert, the primary in-game default skin is manifested, even if it in now way corresponds to the event. I have seen other skins randomly sprinkled in FSO events from time to time though, which I can't explain.
