I wasted all my work with gmail, when deleting sent box it deleted all my mails... I try to dig on my hard drive with specialized tools but I lost almost 1 year of work... I tried to contact gmail support team to see if I can have a backup, but no answers... If someone has an idea, please help me

No, I just posted files. I heard while browsing forums that files should be still on gmail servers, I'm waiting for an answer from their support team

Oh crap...

I hope you get those files back...

and if you cant, I hope that you wont loose your drive on the project, and you will be able to make some new models, perhaps even better than the last ones.

I'm so sorry. It sounds like you've been having such a bad time lately. If you want to have your stuff distributed to other people as a sort of emergency backup, my university computer has a pretty fast internet connection and an awful lot of free space. If you want, I can try to set up an account or something for you so you can store some data and recover it easily. Please let me know. I know everyone would be wiling to do what they can to help.

This might help http://www.celestiamotherlode.net/ the Babylon5 section has a lot of models that you could use, or at the minimum use as reference to build your own more quickly.
