I can't see any differance. It might be the file not having updated, if it shares the filename with the earlier version. I don't know how Dropbox works though, so I might be wrong.

I can't see any difference either.

My browser is set to automatically clear its cache every time I open it (specifically for viewing this forum here) and I can't see a difference either.

Think so, The dreadnaought class in standard colors has three of them in the forward superstructure, the one in britannian colors not.

I think the point was that we(at least me) expected him to lower the belt and freeboard... I can see where this is going.

APDAF: I know we've been through this before - over and over again, yet you seem to have learned nothing from the huge amount of good and sensible advice given to you. Look over your so-called ships. See if they can stand up to be compared with any IRL battleship designs submitted here, when it comes to such fundamentals as mast configuration, funnel design/height, general appearance, seaworthiness, habitability etc.
I guess you're evolving slowly, but, ack, so frustratingly slowly! SB will be here tomorrow, even in month's time, even a year from now. Why don't you try to seriously hone your skills in private, or even by messages to certain members of the community who would be willing to function as think tanks? I think that may be the only way for you to grasp what the other, very informed members, are trying to tell you. As it is, you get only negative, even demeaning and often ridiculing responses, since your creations are really abominable.
It took me a time to get my skills up, but I had the luxury of not growing up in the age of computers and internet and social networking, so I could perfect, or at least practice my skills in peace, only disturbed by my parents. I did, howver, read a copious amount of naval literature, and I've collected a respectable library all through the years. That's how I came to understand the intricacies of naval engineering, a process I know most members here either have went through or are going through. But you, my dear APDAF, do you even read any naval literature; not just fancy tales of battles and heroics, but, more importantly the relevant technical literature? I am asking since you seem neither to understand what other members are advicing you to do, nor seem to grasp the concepts involved in a good basic naval design.
That it can be done several members here can attest, from their first meagre drawings in the Beginners Forum to full-grown master pieces, that can serve as art in themselves. I've supported the promotion of a couple of them, and I can assure you, that were you to attain that skill level, then I shall be the first to recommend you for promotion too. But to that stage it is still a long way. But if you start to read the posts more carefully and begin considering what the advice is, then you can reach there!

Bezo that is simply outstanding advice
Coming from a true ship bucket master too :shock:
APDAF I'm a newb in drawing as well and I honestly see at least in my opinion that u have improved
U have taken steps of improvement
Just keep on taking them and don't stop and the sky's the limit
Even if u disagree with people advice seriously consider and try it
I honestly would love to see u try a real design just to hone your skills
Or maybe one of the beginner base drawing eswube made like I am
They may not fit your interests but they may help
Considering your designs it seems like dreadnaughts pre dreds
And battle cruisers are your favorites so why not try one and include it for your au
If this is bad advice other members say so as I don't have much of a right as someone with one posted kit bash to try to supply advice but i hope it's at least a bit helpful

No Trojan, it's a good follow-up advice. I cannot see anything wrong in that. Thank you for your first compliment, but the second was sheer flattery, I'm afraid, since I'm something of a hack, at least in my own eyes. 8-)

And APDAF, Trojan's words should serve as an encouragement, if mine aren't. The sky's the limit, if you only can seize the opportunity! There are quite a few in this community who really like to see you succeed!
