GAAAAAH!!! I had to reduce the quality to 19 in Photoshop to get this under 512K!! Hope it looks halfway decent! With all these changes at Rendo, I REALLY wish they could give us a couple extra KB... Oh, well.... I have a higher-rez version at the GFTNA website.... For those of you who have joined us in the middle of the story, you can see all the previous chapters there. They are all still on Rendo as well. Well, just one more week on this stinko graveyard shift - then it's evening shift for a month - then back on days for 2 months. Maybe I'll get caught up on comments if I ever figure out which way is up... Hope you all are enjoying the story - I'm working on getting the pages posted a bit faster, as Chapter 4 is even bigger than 3 was! The Girls are in for a wild ride. Thanks so much for all your comments - and encouraging words on my last post! I'm hangin' in there! Hope everyone has a great week, and don't forget to set your clocks forward 1 hour... I really just wish they'd leave the darn clocks alone... :-P Additional credits: Arawen character by P3 Design - not in RMP any longer (morphs slightly modified by me) Backgrounds created in Vue 10 Complete by RodS Old homestead buildings by Dryjack available in Rendo Freebies Arawen's outfit is the Shado bodysuit available at shareCG Satellite Dish, Camera, & Laptop from Archive3D.net G4's fire red hair by RodS available in Renderosity freebies The Mech is ED209 - from Robocop - found at SCG Girls' headsets by 3-d-c Dystopia Console available @ DAZ
