Deleting snapshots from the root-folder

Hello, guys!

Here's a question: I now have left more than 800 snapshots in my root - folder (Cryptic/live/snapshots...) *without* the 900 ones which I moved to Recycle for utter DELETION. :D
Now, would this be a BAD move on my part or not? Will it affect the game launcher in any way? It shouldn't, right? I mean, they're just snapshots... Oh, and I *kept* the avatar TGAs in their right place; I didn't moved those for deletion! If that counts for something...

Thank you!

    It's safe to delete them all. Just note that saved costumes for ground and space are also stored there, so if you accidentally delete any of those you may lose the ability to load them in the tailor/ship customizer.

    Thank you! Oh, I can live with that. ;) However, I didn't place them for deletion. Well, actually I did, but restored them on the spot. :P

    Thanks again!

    I delete my snapshots all the time. It's perfectly safe.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."
