The thing I've always loved most about creating content for games - both professionally and as a hobby - is the ability to create an imaginary world and then see it as if it really existed. I mainly create things that are of interest to me for my own use, such as things to match already-existing things, or special props I need for my forum stories here at TSR.

I'm pretty rabidly in favour of the "repository technique" - also known as linked or master/slave files - where you make a new mesh that reuses the textures of an existing mesh. In large part that is due to my download addiction, since it greatly reduces the number of files needed for matching recolours; given a choice between 10 meshes with 3 recolours each for a total of 30 files, or 10 meshes with 3 recolours they share for a total of 13 files... I know which I'd rather have my computer be dealing with!
