Default Re: New race set to stimulate your senses

Portrait pictures are _very_ nice. However, I have a qualm about mini - They all are about same size, occupying as much as possible of 36x36 space. It realy produce some confusion in SE system map, for me at least. There should be some size difference between Scout and Dreadnought !
Yes, any reduction in size kills off any fine details and not many shipsets (mine are no exception) follow this rule, but it greatly improves, IMHO, shipset appeal if one can easily distinguish small ships from big without clicking on sector or mini-image in design window.

Another point: your shipset is optimized (correctly) for newstandard sizes. But most people play non-moded SE so I think it will be better if you assign most distinct ship pictures to canon sizes, even if it will interfere with newstandard progression.
