Open request to all Payware Loco Creators

This is a request to all loco payware creators. This is not a criticism but a request so that they can sell more of their products. (i did not know if this belongs in the payware thread)

Many have made custom cabs, sounds for their locos but when you go to their site all you see is small screens of their locos and partial view of their cabs. Some even put in "arty" shots. This does not advertise their product well. Some of us don’t have unlimited funds to spend on "trying" out the locos and see if it is worth it. And we want to be sure that we really want it. Here are some of the ways you can make us want to buy your locos.

1. At least 1024x800 size pictures. I would prefer to see just the loco and not any consist with it. I know this forum doesn't allow bigger pictures but you all have a website. Gives us a link back to a detail page of the loco.

2. If you have a detailed cab interior, please give us some good clear and bigger screens as to how it is different from the standard Trainz cab.

3. If there are custom sounds, lights or motion, please post a small movie clip on your site or use youtube.

Again, let me reiterate that this is not a criticism. I know that there are many good locos out there but small screens and just words don’t convey their worth. I think it will help us to decide and help you all to sell effectively.

Thanks for listening,
Don

PS. Route payware creators are doing it right by having bigger pictures, maps and movie clips.

Well, yes it does belong in payware, for by their customers.

So what about those for varying reasons that are on dial up and/or have slow computers?

Use thumbnails instead.
