Hello everyone!
I have an important announcement to make.
I have not seen this done before so I thought I would give it a try, it will be somewhat of a large undertaking but I'm sure that in the long run it will become very popular.
I present... Spotlight.
Here's the synopsis:
We all use mods, and most of us take them for granted. But wouldn't you like to get a to know who it was that made your favorite mod, and why? That's what Spotlight will seek out to accomplish, every two weeks I will introduce you to one of the hundreds of modders and modding teams that make it their mission to make the games we play, better. Spotlight will be composed of interviews, and previews of upcoming mods and ships. As well as a look into the creative processes that each individual modder and modeler goes through, in order to create that masterpieces that we have all come to know, love, and appreciate.
I am currently in the process of writing questions, as well as coming up with the massive list of people that I would like to try and interview.
I am not doing this for myself, I am doing this for everyone. I believe that the public deserves to know who the people are behind these mods that they use everyday, what their likes/dislikes are, how they live, what their favorite mods are. It will bring a more personal touch to each community.
If you would like to volunteer a portion of your time to Spotlight and to put a face to your mods, feel free to send me a PM with the subject line "Spotlight"
I hope that everyone will appreciate what I am trying to accomplish with this, and will donate some of their time to the project.

Congratulations everyone!!! You have made Part One of Christmas Special the most read episode on MeteorCreations!!! Surpassing the first two episodes!!
For this being the FIRST program to do this, it has been a very big success in my eyes.
And since the first episode, which was released only three weeks ago there has been a total of 1,515 views for the entire series! I would have never expected this!
One thing that I AM disappointed about is at the lack of comments, only 8?... :( With all of these readers I would think that someone would have something to say. Please show your support and give your opinion about each episode and leave a comment on the interviews.
But I would like to end with with saying thanks to everyone who has participated in the program thus far.

Hello everyone, I hope you all had a pleasant holiday.
Until the release of the second part of the Christmas Special, Spotlight will continue on as planned with this weeks episode. Featuring Assistant Director of the Ultimate Universe Mod, Phoenix.
This will be the last Episode of the year, so it has been made slightly longer.
Spotlight Episode Five: Featuring UUM Assistant Director Phoenix:
