Early September, the [http://liveries.flightgear.org/ FlightGear Livery Database] welcomed its [http://liveries.flightgear.org/liveries.php?id=301 300th livery]! It is a livery of the Polish Air Force's [[Lockheed C130]], created by Maciej Zgódka, one of the latest additions to the painters-team.
Early September, the [http://liveries.flightgear.org/ FlightGear Livery Database] welcomed its [http://liveries.flightgear.org/liveries.php?id=301 300th livery]! It is a livery of the Polish Air Force's [[Lockheed C130]], created by Maciej Zgódka, one of the latest additions to the painters-team. In the same time, the database was upgraded with a couple of new "features":
* thumbnails of liveries pop up when you hover over a link.
* a contact page was added, to ease contacting the database maintainer.
* each livery has a "Report this livery" button, through which visitors can notify the maintainer of a broken download, incorrect or unknown author, licensing issues etc.
 
I would like to emphasize that lots of liveries are not yet assigned an author. Please check for yourself if there is any [http://liveries.flightgear.org/authors.php?id=0 unknown-author-livery] of which you known/are the author. Lots of liveries are still in the need for a thumbnail, so those are welcome as well.
