Thanks

Yes, there's a problem with the zip file of that Photo Series. I'm sure Danielle will fix that as soon as she can.

Thanks for moving question and answer here, WhyYou. I think they fit in here better than in Danielle's Question Thread.

Hey Whyyou! If YOU can move threads, how about following up on my suggestion to create a central location for "art work" - those from Mart, Ugo, and anyone else who bombards the threads with LOTS of Photoshop files.

Even Danielle posted her agreement with my idea.

Maybe even add a new category just for fan artwork? Not sure how hard this is to do. There certainly seems to be enough posted that it would warrent it's own category. That would be better than just placing it all into one thread under "general discussion" since a thread like that would take a long time to load with all the photos.

There's a huge difference between moving posts from one existing thread to another like WhyYou did - you only need the right to delete the posts from the old thread - and doing structural changes like creating a fifth branch. I think only Rob and Chris (Lagwagon) have the power for that.

Yes, I can move threads. But I cannot create new forums. I can only move threads to existing forums. As was posted previously, that job is something that Lagwagon or Rob will have to do.

I had the same problem. I wound up using a program called B.I.D. (Bulk Image Downloader) to save the pics. There are others that'll do this as well. then, of course, there's always "right click, save as"!
Anoree is correct, it shouldn't be too big an issue to fix. Rob or Danielle will just have to re-zip the file.
