More Amiga Power scans found on another site :-)

http://www.old-computer-mags.com/mag...AmigaPower.htm

Available are issues 53, 54, 56, 58, 59 and 60 - most of them I believe AMR doesn't have scans of. And they're in excellent quality too!


Thought I'd let all of you folks know.

Hmmmm, good point. I thought they were just JPG files being run through a secretive Java picture displayer tool, but having tracked down the source and all, it seems each page is embedded into a CLASS file, which confuses the heck out of me. I don't suppose an offline Java pictures tool thingy is available somewhere, anyone?


Failing that, I or we or somebody might have to ask the Old-Computer-Mags.com folks very nicely if we could use their pages for AMR.

Bumping an old thread here. So did you get in touch with the site? Did they reply? I've looked into class images and there's nothing you can do to get 'em. I wonder why the site owners decided to do that, eh?

It's a shame there hasn't been an AMR update for months. Although the site seems to be down right now, anyway.

You could grab them with a screengrabber, there are plenty on Aminet.

I may at some point this year scan all my AP mags which will be fully downloadable with no restrictions. AP 1 - 65 + issue zero!

Also have all disks uploaded too...

Just need to buy a high quality scanner first and some webspace... I won't eBay/sell them for profit like some folk do

They didn't? Tsk. I must've missed it as I certainly would have replied, begging and pleading.

It's from issue 20 onwards that's really needed, as the first 19 issues on AMR are, apart from the odd page here and there, complete. And AMR hasn't been updated in nearly a year, so...

AMR is updated reguraly, although there are usually only big updates that are posted on the front page.
