Storefront has been redirected (again, due to that guy possibly decreasing storefront sales buy bringing his problems here).

*applause for supreme originality*

...mark another chance gone against the idea of reason intervening in the current theme of "sell anything and everything as though any single manufacturer or reasonably sized group of manufacturers would bother making every major type of small arms, tank, ship, and aircraft."

*more applause for collecting existing statistics and copyrighted or freely shared images and for presenting them as one's own without acknowledgement*

ok, I'm done, but couldn't you just try to use one style of weaponry or look into making your own? It's not that hard...as long as you're reading through Globalsecurity or FAS.org you could very well read a bit about the planes and merge some statistics, fudge some numbers, and make up your own like everyone else? plsthnx

OOC: Im trying to RP my nation being run by major corporations.... most of which being 'arms' manufacturing ones.

Thanks for the praise, it did take me a while to type all of the guns... but I love them so much I doesnt bother me. Im trying to get pics from different sites now, instead of them all being from one. If they are copyrighted then they should put encoding on their site. Thats not my problem.

This front did start out at just being guns, but I figured since my nation has grown so much some more arms corporations could pop up too and sell planes, tanks, ships and the like. But you do have a good point, changing the company name and the names of the weapons is a good idea. Making my own stuff im not sure about, most of people's 'creative' inventions on here dont appeal to me, especially small arms. But thanks for you feedback.. im glad I finally got some constructive critiscm.

P.S.~Continue this on AIM if you must.

These companies being MDD, L-M, GD, Boeing and other US companies?

Copyright isn't about using encoding...it's a protection all of its own.

Change the names at least...or you can follow your own creative interests...whether or not others have the same ones. gl tho. I'm done here

First off, I dont have to do anything to the front. What I meant by changing the names had to do with my companies re-producing the US items and changing the names to the Cottonmouth industries or whatever. Same with the copyright thing. Wouldnt have to worry if I changed the names...

If you so upset about the pictures, just go look at almost every other storefront of modern-day items. You think those people took the pictures themselves?

No, nor do I believe in their storefronts.

Well then now that you have touched up on my thread, take your ideas and go to theirs (Including Unum Veritas..).

But overall thanks for the feedback.. it gave me some better ideas on what to do with the planes, ships, and armor sections of my storefront.

Upon reveiwing your vast selection of excellent small arms, Erinin would request CottonMouth to assmeble a package proposal of small arms The G3 being implimented as our standard rifle, we would also seek sniper/personell/material/pistol/submachine gun/heavy machine/light machine
As well as a Anti-air small arms, CottonMouths reccomendations on this matter will be taken seriously.
The package may include the G3 as the standard infantry rifle and be designed around a standing army of 6,000,000.
We commend such an excellent selection of small arms, this is simply another reason ErininArms does not enter such a competative field.
