Thanks Christophe

The normal version of STS takes less bandwidth than the most part of other foruns. Also, mobile version is getting useless, they are working on normal version to keep a single platform to both PC and mobile devices. :)

That's interesting

Roger recently added our zodiac animals to our profile!

What do you think about adding a resin model section to the custom/handmade section? It's a little confusing I think as to which section a resin will go in, since it's not a custom or a handmade model

Resin models already have a section [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

For original finish models, yes, but what about repainted or customized resin models?

IMHO, if a model is repainted or customized, the material isn't important, resin, pvc, plastic or composition... I can't see a difference. And too much subsections often give more new problems than solutions

I was wondering what resin is?

What do you mean Emma ? What could be an "About STS forum" section ? I need more explanations

Christophe, It is a question to clarify a suggestion  

Actually it is a good question, because according to Wikipedia, Resin is a sort of plant sap , - or artificial resin : A sort of clear plastic
I think that when we say "resin", we actually mean polyresin

Pictures of resin models here .

Picrures of polyresin here .

Susanne... I think I am very tired or I missed something. This morning I answered to Emma's post about "About STS forum" section and I can't find this post again... I was trying to help her and It wasn't about resin.

About a resin section, I already gave my two cents.

I must be sleepy also, - reading it again I can see you ansvered another question

Typically when I refer to "resin" it's in the context of "a resin," as in "artist sculpted and molded model horse," but it can also refer to the material of resin, which is indeed a type of plastic, though quite heavy and expensive. Resin is what AR model horses are made from as well as copies of homemade animals from members here, that are cast, painted, and sold.

Two new subsections: The [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

BRILLIANT

Thankyou, Christophe

Panini here at STS is growing, perhaps it is time for a Panini section?

What is Panini? Mmmm sounds like the toasted sandwiches that Nana used to make

We created recently sections to Ravensburger, Geo World and REBOR. Those are all current companies with comprehensive collections of animal figures and that release regularly new figures. OK, REBOR was a little exception once it is a starting company only dedicated to dinosaurs with still a very small collection but we agreed directly with REBOR to open it, I think our mission is also to support new companies. With did it with Mojo when it was not even known and it was a success.
Panini is an editorial that releases among many other collections, some toy animal figures, SOL90 is also an editorial and we have already a good number of topics about them.
Regarding all these points, mainly considering Panini is not a toy company, I don't think we need a section to Panini yet, however, if it turns really fashionable among our members, your suggestion will be considered for sure. Thanks!

I want to informe all members that the private messages system was updated on forum and now we can have up to 200 messages instead of only 50.
Also the save box was updated to 200.
Though, remember that when the in box is full, you cannot receive messages so please keep it clean as always as possible.

Some additional info about boxes once sometimes it seems a little confuse:
- In box: it contains the messages that we receive;
- Save box: It contains the important messages that we save, so they're moved from the in box to the save box;
- Out box: it contains the messages that were already sent but not yet read;
Sent box: It contains messages that were already sent and read.

Thanks for the update, Roger

Thank you

Thankyou, both for the infor and for expanding the possible contents of the message boxes

Nice! Thank you for the upgrade
