For 10 years Morrowind has been a solid base for mod makers serving as a source of infinite inspiration for thousands of mods, many of which provided vast improvements to the vanilla game. Some are really fundamental - like Better Bodies - everyone is using it, and all the cool clothes made since its release were designed keeping in mind the BB mod.

But time flies and now even BB seems a bit outdated, in comparison to the other graphic mods which let Morrowind beat easily even some modern games. Further bodies improvement seems to be a titanic task, hardly bearable by a single modder - not to mention clothes fix needed to adapt existing pieces of apparels to the improved bodies. Even thinking about it may cause the knees to tremble.

Enjoyment from release of a highly appreciated mod is the best reward every modder can wish to get, but what if one had an additional stimulus besides the mentioned one?

What if there existed a fund, which anyone can donate any amount of money to - and this fund would have only one goal at a time: reward certain sum/all the money to a modder/group of modders who would make everyone's dream come true:

Goal #1

release up-to-date beautiful bodies

thus desire to mod and give joy to the community will be sustained by a substantial reward.

There's someone who's posted update photos on nexus as the work on converting HGEC to Morrowind. Still leaves male body meshes and beast races admittedly but St. Jiub is doing fantastic work on the male body textures.

It's the precedent of paid modding that's iffy. Free to release, free to use. As soon as money gets brought into it it muddies the water. There's a donate function already on Nexus. Further monetising mods... no ...just no. Don't go giving Valve ideas.
