Rollo your right. Who could we forget them. We need a list of all the ship set authors.

What areas go into peoples selection of prefered ship sets?
I like the Space Sharks for what I percieve as Technical Qualty - Hard for me define or describe this.
Originalty - I have never seen anything close to this except maybe the "Space Sting Rays". Befor it came along I would have said the United Flora.
Visual Apeal - To me they just look good
Continuity - From one ship to the next.
For me to select 1 or 5 top designers?
Quantity is never a deciding factor with me.
Qualty - I don't feel able to judge the technical qualty of most ships.
Orignalty is just that and very few of the sets copy someone elses.
Not all have visual apeal but frequently that was not the goal of the artist.
Continuity again is up to the artist.

As such I find myself unable come up with a list of designers. I will continuek to admirer each set on its own merrits.

Then again, I usualy am a bit crude and angular.

Why does it matter if you aren't in an arbitrary top 8 list? He could have made it top 9 and placed you as 9. Or he could have made it top 5 and excluded 3 other people.

I imagine that list differs for almost everyone. What one person finds appealling about a pirticular shipset someone else may not! Any the other way around as well! I like my shipsets. Otherwise they wouldn't be out there. I do care to some degree what other people say or feel about my shipsets. But, I am they one that makes or breaks a shipset. Even when I am doing one for someone else. Although I do the set for them. With them having some input, as to how they look. And if the finished shipset is what they wanted. I am still the designer!

Fyron,

It doesn't, actually. I saw a lot of names left off the list. Designers with much more talent than me.
