Well not really :p
I've been lurking around for about three months and decided to finally join in on the glorious hardened light of freedom in space.
I played space sims in the 90s but sadly missed the Freespace window, I discovered FS2 a while ago and decided get it, possibly the best idea I've had regarding video games so far, love the darned game to bits, specially with the MediaVPs.
Now if only there were more campaigns that let you fly the big ships...

Blue Planet: War in Heaven has a standalone mission where the player is put in command of a Terran Frigate-class warship.

^I miss the hyperintelligent shade of blue and all that good stuff. :(
Anyways, welcome to the forums! Also if you still don't have FS1 you can buy it on gog.com (http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/freespace_expansion) for $6. :)

It will not happen, all because of that beam contest matter.
I think.
Also, nice beam el_magnifico, you did it?

Needs beam fade.

Wow! I didn't think you guys would like it so much. That gif is a joke I GIMPed more than a year and a half ago. It was originally posted in the "big gifs" thread. I've since lost the xcf (the "source"). Now, I could redo it, but you guys have to keep in mind that using an animated gif as a welcome beam could cause some problems to people with old connections or abusive ISPs. So assuming we managed to get a permission, I would have to keep it small, efficient, and probably limit it to one color so that browsers would only need to load one copy.
All that being said, it could be done. I'll get to work ASAP.
P.D.: Leave it to HLP to put an artist's job in a programmer's hands. :p

Welcome!

I've finished two beams. I've requested their approval in this thread (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=81447).
Now, we have to wait for the admins' response.
Needs beam fade.
I considered it, but it would steal precious time from the main beam, and would hardly be noticeable in the current size.

Needs beam fade.
kill him.

Needs beam fade.
Heresy!

What mods have you played so far? We've definitely got some great ones lying around if you're getting bored.
