   Thank you for taking my input. Regarding the h5 tag, play a little with this: go to “/landsat-downloads/style.css:173″, add to “.whsdpostcontent h5″ at the end “padding-bottom:10px;” and check it in http://orbitersimulator.com/landsat-downloads/. I seems to ok to be more space after the title (maybe 10px is a little too much, it’s your call).
   Another issue (I guess I’m pushing this one, but…) is with the pictures in the right sidebar. I really like the pictures and the concept of changing at every reload, but there seems to be a problem because photos don’t match with the title of each of the 3 widgets. Ex: For “Real Calculations” after the ISS from one side, the change is to a photo with the terrain (probably this last one should match “Realistic Terrain” title, where the photo shown is a rocket launch). If you believe it’s too much work and little benefit in this, I understand and have no problem also.
   I’ll check all download links on Monday.

     Thank YOU for the input, I can’t think of everything… LOL

     I think I got what you were pointing at on the h5 tag, albeit a different route to the solution – let me know

     Re: The sidebar pictures. Those are about a dozen ‘stock orbiter pictures’ that I dug up and have used to fill space. I have not yet figured out a solution to getting images for all three blocks however I figure there’s a few folks out there who would want to help

     The images are currently in a mechanism that rotates the three groups independently, so the machine is built, at least.

   Well, regarding those pics, i guess you can ask this in orbiter-forum (i saw Dan also asked this and got some very nice pics for his new Arrow). Also, D3D11 thread has some nice pics:
   for scenery, also cool pics here:
   . Some screenshots with Orulex activated would be cool.

   Motivated

   I must focus on life for a few weeks, however yesterday I did several updates that won’t get posted to help keep the site running smoothly. I am working on it in the background, hence the updates not being posted on O-F and some not at all. I’ve been reading your contributions and am planning to attack them soon

   On a side note, if large file distributors suddenly had a 404 error when you tried to download Orbiter files and it was not on my site, well they are naughty little file hotlinkers that were stealing my bandwidth probably lol
