Excellent work Ian
Okay so the question now is what is the quickest way to download all the good data..........................at the moment I am selecting certain threads and saving the complete page to my PC as .htm files, so you have a sub directory with all the photo's and other gif's that make up that page, just remember that you have to do this for every page on that thread. At least then these pages can be viewed off-line and will allow the pages to be rebuilt on the new forum.....
Any other ideas welcome.........................days are counting down already.
I found some freeware software, so I'll be mirroring the entire site for accsess at my leasure on a 2nd hard drive. Never done this and hope the program works.... but it IS a very large download!
Don't know how much yet as it's 2 hours and 400MB into the process. Won't know until it's done.
Here is a link to the software for mirroring: http://www.httrack.com/

If anybody wants any of my drawings of switches etc, now's your time. I'm going to delete them from that site in three or four days' time.
Is it worth doing the same as what JD is doing stateside for the club here in the UK. I would be have done this at home but stuck in Russia for the next 2 weeks with limited bandwidth on the internet.....................
Thanks Peter
Excellent.............................go to the top of the class.....;);)
