Silkworm: That's fine uploading there. You are uploading huge images though, 2Mb each so I'll resize them for the site but keep the originals.

As for AC23, nobody has marked that they own that issue so if you want to scan it that would be super! :)

All scans are now online. I'm not sure where you've stored the indexes for the Games X magazines, I assume from your post you've made an Excel spreadsheet of issues 13-14, 17-18 but can't find it.

I looked at some of the pages and you made them much clearer to read. they look good. :great

no about the indexes. I should have wrote contents not index. filling in index is the most boring part as we all know.
I will do it at some point though, to help out. ;)

I will do some more covers, contents and amiga stuff from Games-x because that mag just fits right on my old scanner and makes them easier to scan.

And I'll try to do other pages of the early amiga computing (like programming tutorials etc) now i have done all the game reviews from those issues I think. :crazy

Those scans are all online now. I haven't done all the cover stories. It'd be great if you could scan the actual full mags at some point, especially the Amiga reviews! :-)

I will do the amiga reviews eventually over time, but it takes a long time on my old scanner and old pc doing it manually 1 page at a time :crazy
I have to have the imputus to do it.

No worries, I fully understand. My work has a fast colour A3 scanner and it can do a page in full colour in about 3 seconds!

I have no idea how many pages you've added so it's now 379 for no reason other than a wild estimate!

All processed. There seems to be a page 5 from Games-X 14 which is part of a multi-page article, but no page 6. Is that a mistake?

Sorry

I just checked, I named "games-x_13_p5.jpg" wrong as "games-x_14_p5.jpg" :guru

so that issue 14 page 005 should be in issue 13 instead. :great
