I'd be interested in looking at those types of files if they happen although I don't have the artistic flair to create that kind of content myself. I think there are some here about that do.. :)

There is a package for Synchronet that looks like Mystic. I see a lot of potential in themes, wish I had the stuff to do my own.

I have a bunch of stuff that would fit into areas like this.

FSX_DOOM     Maps and engines for DOOM and DOOM][
FSX_QUAKE    Maps/Mods/Engines for Quake
FSX_QUAKE2   Maps/Mods/Engines for Quake 2
FSX_QUAKE3   Maps/Mods/Engines for Quake 3
FSX_UNREAL   Maps for the Unreal series

You can put those files in one area but that can be frustrating for file seekers and they will simply go elsewhere.
