Hi Thomas, you might also consider to contact as many of the existing
sites with texture libs, maybe creating sort of a texture ring for pov?
There are sites with hundreds and hundreds of textures already, what
I would feel to be new, would be the thumbnail thingy as kind of
consorted action. Oops, this would mean to scan the sites for new stuff
regularly etc.
