I do a bit of graphics work myself, so I've always thought it would be cool to do a TRANS fansite. At the moment, though, I would have no idea what to do with it.
So, what would you like to see on a fansite?

-High Score lists for each starting ship, maybe a 'modded ship' section too.
-Archive of "Great moments in..." for sceenshots and/or descriptions of interesting game situations.
-Web page background images, buttons, etc.
-Links to graphic and xml editting tools on the web for designers.
That is all I can think of right now.
EDIT - Pictures of ships and stations from the game. I can't think of anywhere that really shows off the game's graphics too much. Could have some descriptions or just be labelled.

Need a mod? Transcendence Mods
So I opened up Photoshop, meddled for an hour, and was rather satisfied. Before I sliced and whatnot, I decided to check out the other two sites that I know of (Transcendence Blog and the Mod site), and decided that mine looked exactly the same. So this time, I think I'm going to create a site for a different purpose - mods that allow for new missions, and rewards for completing them (in exchange for something that is said by the captain / whatnot after the mission is completed).

I have a subdomain with 500 MB space that I was going to use for a graphics archive. If you want to put anything that you have there, I could create an FTP account for you.
There are no host/sponsor ads, 2 MB file size limit, 5GB transfer/month.
I'm going to start putting more graphics up anyway, so maybe we could combine all of our work (and anybody else that wants to put in).

I have pretty much unlimited bandwidth (considering the traffic possible versus my limit, there's no comparison) to take into account, so don't be afraid to ask if you need anything.
