My New Site

[cut 'n' paste]

Hmmm..... Noticed that someone has already taken some of the free trucks and put them up on Depositfiles and Turbobit. Don't know whether to take it as a back-handed compliment or what....It also happened with some of the trams a while back, and they were only available from the downloads section here!. At least they're not pirating any of the paid-for kits.... Thing is, this site probably isn't visible to anyone other than the members here, so it must be one of them that's done it. Just wish they'd ask first.!

Squirrelfish and Hymak...both members here.
They contribute ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to this community
but they wait for models to be posted, then they "steal" them,
copy them and upload them to new file hosts (they earn money from downloads).
The files are shared mainly on Russian language paper model websites.

You can submit a basic DMCA report to the File Hosts...the files will be blocked within hours.

Its a shame to see you go to so much work creating a nice website, and freely share your models,
just to have someone come along and rip you off by diverting your traffic and stealing potential fans and customers.

Uh.... What? Don't even understand a lot of that....
Anyway, it's just the odd model, and nothing I sell. Don't think I'll lose any sleep over it.

I use a ready-to-send DMCA report and its pretty easy once you get used to it.
Basically just have to fill in the recipient Host name,
the file addresses of the material to be taken down,
and the addresses of the original material.

I report every unauthorized thing because I think its wrong no matter if its a free model or retail.
And I will not give these guys the satisfaction of taking my stuff without permission.

Sebastian Kiszka has kindly allowed me to host his narrow gauge locos and rolling stock on my site as well. I have put some of them in the downloads section here, but I am adding a lot more on TransportPaperModels.
It will take me a long time to get them all up, so be patient!

I just want to thank you for the fine models and I hope to be able to build some of them in the future. Thank you for your work and a very nice site.

... for the time being!

I've now added all Sebastian Kiszka's mine locos and rolling stock, a LOT of HOe & HOf 0-4-0 and 0-6-0 narrow gauge locos, bogie and 4-wheel HOe wagons, railcars and coaches and HOf peat wagons. I've even added some pages of display bases for them. I'll take a break for now, but I dare say I'll be back with some more stuff. Any suggestions????
