After attempting to keep on top of things with my heavy workload, and realizing not only had failed to hit my own target for posting new things, but was so busy that I didn’t even notice it passing for over 2 weeks, I have come to the decision that its not fair too the artists who have submitted me work, nor fair to the people who visit my site to continue in this manner.

Unfortunately with sometimes 20 hour work days, working weekends and no let up in sight, I see no way to continue this site in the manner I would like, or anywhere close to what the community deserves or would want, I have decided to call it a day. I will not be deleting posts or files, and my hotfile downloads will remain Hotlinked until my account runs out of credits, and I wish to thank all the artists for their great work.

If you have a site, that hosts skins and comment in this thread, and I will put it bellow in the body of this text so people can migrate to other sites.

Update News:

As people keep asking where they obviously fail to read the FAQ

Question: What are .rar files I thought skins were .dds
Answer: Rar files are compressed files like Zip and 7z use Winzip, 7zip or Winrar or the equivalent for your OS
Hoping to post a big block of new tank skins this week after I get some rest been working 18 hour days for the last 2 weeks.
Amendment:
News in that in 7.0 they will have in game skins to buy with credits/gold which may have some in-game advantage as well as visual. Though I have only seen the video im not personally impressed by the overlays but it is only a video we will see about in game, hopefully its better than their last sound changes.
Whats this mean for sites like this, well unless your paying for a skin on your tank probably not much you can still use your custom skins but if someone has paid for a skin, their overlay will be go above your skin and well…. erhm look crap. This is what I expected from them, and it was kind of hinted by the dds file that added a few patchs ago to each tank.
I would of preferred if they had looked at this great community and supported it more, but as my FAQ says, this is not an unexpected development nor does it kill skinning or modding we will see how bad it is for skinners when its out, and as for this site theirs plenty of mods to host.

New Site On The Block

Wotskins.com made by jade, who not only informed me of his intentions before going live, asked for feedback but also has asked me to get on board. At this time, due to my time limitations any help I will give will be limited but this site has a lot of potential, and they have permission to post/host any skins found on my site assuming the authors don’t complain. Having chated with Jade, I believe the site owner has the same philosophy as me of providing a community service, where the authors work is the main thing, not the site (one reason I don’t link to skin sites who tag the images with their logo), and using their own hosting/mirrors of files so less chance of an artists work being lost.
