Full credit goes to "Curtswearing" on reeffrontiers.com for originally compiling this list.


[a few links were removed by me because they were duplicates from other sections of the same document.]


in addition to these links listed here, i have taken the liberty of saving the complete contents of each link as a full .html file seperate from the internet. This way - in case ANY of the content gets lost with any of the servers hosting it - I'll always have a copy (images & all).


If anyone is interested in having this collection, email me: tempset@gmail.com


It has been combined into an .rar file for easier management. File size = 26.3MB

[Scutterborn]

Dang! A lot of work went into compiling all of this! This is great. We should sticky this.


-Ben-

[SinisterLou]

^^^I agree^^^

[MadReefer]

Beautiful work! This guy is Good.

[FireWater]

Cool. Like reading his stuff.
Some I agree with and some I don't. Another good item for us to move over to the new section.

[MadReefer]

Def. needs stickied imo for quick references =)

[txav8r]

Ill move this when I get a chance.

[Tempset]

Tempest, can you email me the file?

zack.guevara@gmail.com

Thanks :)

Unfortunately google's email "Gmail" only allows a maximum file size attachment of 25MB.

I have made it available on "google drive". I will add your email address to the list of those who can access it.

A better option all around would be to simply physically meet up with me (perhaps at the frag swap we are having on 4.14.13) and bring a USB thumb drive with you. I will have my laptop and can easily transfer any of the documents you like to your thumb drive.
