Sorry, I don't have time to read the whole thread, pretty busy, but have you thought about organize your shipset section by various methods and letting the user decide how he wants to view them? Like, sort by directory name, race name, author name?

But that will be after I get the other part of the site upto speed.... As I just wanted to get the static stuff off the ground. See what people liked / disliked and then adjust.
Just from a few Posts back.

What happens in a 5000 point game when a race has AI files but no EMP file?

EMP files are only ever used if you manually load them. Otherwise, AI empires are always generated from the AI files. So, the AI will use whatever it is designed to use in 5000 point games.

Thanks for the quick answer.

I was concerned as I noticed that some races come with emp files for the different point totals.

Tesco, if its too much trouble to revise the files so all shipsets are Gold compatible, just have an indicator showing whether a shipset is optimized for Gold or Classic. I really hate it when I start a game and see those error screens. Grrr.
