    AU $ plunges under .60cUS no

    not a good sign. sad

     

    are roots in my drain, just watching the news on the stock market, need to survive on my Superannuation for 4 more years if it doesn't collapse, have a buggered up knee too

    depressing day

    terracotta pipes?

    you could have a bar b q day and invite whoever along and bring their shovels and spades..

    I have about two months to go, got my reminder the other day to get it started. Age catches us all eventually... I'm feeling it now as well big time. sad

    ShareCG went down.
    https://sharecg.com/
    Hope that's not definitive and there will be some more time to download stuff, but the server warnings do not look reassuring...

    gone for me as well, worked yesterday when I checked but not today... sad

    hybrid, the main line is PVC but where it runs to my bathroom is terracotta, very heavy clay soil, I had the toilet one done 6 years ago and it was 3K

    I simply don't have the money, living off my Superannuation and terrified will lose that now too, 4 years until pension age and a lot will happen the next 4 years

    I have been dissolving pool salt in boiling water and dumping down it

    may get the rootex or coppersulphate, used that before getting my loo line replaced

    this is such a damned skinny pipe, that's the big issue

    Even in the past days, sometimes the login was periodically logging you out...
    But the site is working for me at the moment, even though a lot of images are broken

    ShareCG was working for me as of the time of this post.  It did display a page warning of impending doom, and that page a link to continue on to the desired page.

  • therixxtherixx Posts: 226

    Yesterday it did work, but now I have the same problem as Bunyip02.
    ShareCG shows the pages, but I cannot Log in

  • Bunyip02Bunyip02 Posts: 9,227

    Still getting the fail to Login issue .....

  • therixxtherixx Posts: 226

    ShareCG working now!
    I guess at the moment it is just a matter of checking often and being lucky... :-/

  • Bunyip02Bunyip02 Posts: 9,227

    Naaah - still does not like me ......

  • therixxtherixx Posts: 226

    Well, this is strange, I am downloading a lot of stuff... Have you tried with a different browser?

  • Bunyip02Bunyip02 Posts: 9,227

    Two different browsers - same result ....

    Have downloaded most of the items I was interested in before it was announced that they were closing down, there was just a few newbies that were left to go.

  • therixxtherixx Posts: 226

    I just logged in; immediately after, for testing purpose, I logged out; now I cannot log in again. Closed and reopened the browser: not working!
    Maybe ShareCG is having an issue of limited allowed logins?
    Or maybe we just need to be lucky? ;-)

  • Bunyip02Bunyip02 Posts: 9,227

    Luck .....

  • DiomedeDiomede Posts: 15,388

    My most recent attempts to login to ShareCG have failed.  Inconsistent.  Not sure what is up.

    I think I got all the interesting Carrara stuff (and a load of other items, of course)
    In the meanwhile... Poser and Daz freebies is trying to save everything we can... :-)
    https://poserdazfreebies.miraheze.org/wiki/ShareCG_Download_Project
    Ok, back to downloading, since at the moment I am logged in! ;-)

    Good luck to downloading if the site will let you Login.

    Still getting the no login error.

    Was looking through my Poser files and I have a long list of Neil Wilson's aircraft - looks like they will be lost to newbies wanting to download aircraft crying

    Might have to fire up Blender and get stuck into doing aircraft/ship/tank models - got the reference material for them .....

  • Bunyip02Bunyip02 Posts: 9,227

    Hmmm....

    Aircraft designs not already covered by Neil Wilson, Pedro Caparros, Anders Lejczak (colacola.se), that still leaves a lot, also if the ShareCG Download Project does not find a place that the models can be downloaded from, then replacement models will be needed.

    First up finish the project aircraft I have been working on !!!

    EDIT - uh-oh, I don't see Briney's name on any of the ShareCG Download Project lists .....

    I must make a 3D me for Stezza's Blister pack but these are ChaptGPT versions

    I might cheat and use Meshy3D

    Tripo3D gave a slightly better result than Meshy which was horrid

    grab a free Wendy Figurine

    Downloaded the recent items I was missing.

    Then started on the ShareCG Download Project - downloaded Briney, Papus3D, and started on Spacebones but the ShareCG site kicked me out and I can't log back in ....

    On the positive side Diva made Spacebones aware of the closure and he said he would look for another site.

    Uhmmm,  now I suspect this is Stezza's secret identity...

    Nice work with the action Figures, Wendy and Stezza. They would be nice along with my old toys by Mego (still have them, even though not in perfect state since I played a lot with them)
