Since folks have difficulty accessing my website especially at the end of the month when Earthlink's 1 gig bandwidth is used up, I have uploaded a zip file of 7.6 meg to a different website. MEMBERS can download the zip file, open it in a folder/directory you create and you'll have the entire website on your computer. NOTE: this is for registered members only; even then, if you don't normally access my site, don't waste the bandwidth and allow others to get it. Be sure to read the "readme.txt" file, more instructions in that. For members, the URL needed is in my profile. Copy the URL to your browser to download it with your browser.

 

Even with this new site, there is a separate 1 gig/month limit by Earthlink, so if it says site unavailable, wait until the first of the next month and download then.

 

I hope this will help folks to get the info they are looking for more easily. Needless to say, I can't update the zip file. (I don't antipate any updates anyway).

If anyone has problems with the download or opening the zipfile, etc, please PM me. Hopefully there should be no problems as I've tested it several times. Althought I can't say about Macs, as I don't have one :-) The only problems will be with folks on slow dialup connections like me. It will take about 2 hours to download. I went to the local library to upload the file in about 3 minutes on their high speed connection.

 

Please do not share the download URL anywhere with anyone. If the system gets overloaded, I'll have to delete the zip file.

 

Thanks

Thanks Rich, a very valuable resource. Of course my original offer still stands :)

Guys, doesn't need to be written that the reason the link is in Rich's profile is to keep it members only. Please don't post the link here.

Also, it will be up for a while, so no need to rush all at once and overload the server there.

Great work.

Hi Rich:

I am not sure the URL of the site to which you uploaded the file. I clicked on your site and did not see a link to the file. Please post the link. Does the "members" reference refer to the members of the Nihonto Messageboard or to something else?

Thanks in advance for this great resource.

I do hope that there will be updates and many of them!

Barry and Jason, you must click on the little box that says PROFILE at the bottom of Rich's post. That brings up his data. In the bottom right corner you will see an URL. Not his site address but the one in white. Copy and paste this to your browser and press 'enter'. A download message will then appear. Click on that. John

Just curious, has anyone had a problems with the download or the zip file and getting the file to open and work?

Opened fine for me, and I tested maybe 20 of the links - I hope to test the whole thing in the next day or so. Thanks so much for doing this, Rich - I've always found your site to be invaluable. :D
