- uptodate links to other sites
- guest book
- screenshots of your games
- who you are

There are already a lot of sites and all of them have 'downloads', this can be a problem if those aren't up to date
I prefer a link to one uptodate site

Okay I think every week a update.

What about the downloads?
What for downloads do you want to see?

Saved Games?
Scenarios?
Music Files?
Other..

And must it be 1 language or more?
Now the site is English , but I can make it Dutch too.
And maby some one else can make it German.

Not saved games or scenarios, except really good ones. There's http://www.gamearchive.uk.tt for that.

If I want to see another one, I would like to see it like George's, but more extensive. I really find his lists of vehicles and when they are designed very usefull, and I'ld like to see a site with all available info on TTD, tables, ratings etcetera.
Most of these are on various TTD sites, but I don't want to search through all of them any time I need something.
There are enough TTD sites with a few screenshots and downloads already.

well, I can only say:
- tt-extreme.net will be updated soon, since my ADSL provider fixed my connection
- if you have suggestions, mail them to bart@radon-hosting.com
- my advertisements are nowhere to be found, maybe I'll add one later.
- expanded link system, with a small description for example.
- update of articles INCLUDE:
- screenshots (need to work it out though)
- vehicles database
- funny facts
- more tips
I had some emails too, I'll convert them to articles.

This could take some time, I'm currently rescripting everything to make things easier and more detailed.

However, I HATE bio's...but if you insist, you are my target 'audience' after all. :)

Any more suggestions are welcome ofcourse...
