I love these texures and plan to make further use of them. OH YEAH please let me know what you think good or bad, i'm not overly sensitive either just go easy with the harsh language, remember we live in a "society".

A few of my maps run on an LoF server at 24.113.104.178 You will need to install the WoD mod to benefit the most in there. Say "hey" to all the LOF peops you see there. Give a "hey" to all the [GoTH] folks you see also. *COPYRIGHT/PERMISSIONS* "Marics31 & "Shades of Gray" is Copyright (c) 2001 by Shon M. Shaffer Quake 2 is Copyright (c) 1997 by ID Software Inc.
