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!

silkworm · 16 February 2012, 15:42

AC 23. All Game review pages are done and uploaded.

games-x covers and index for issues
13
14
17

edit: added games-x issue 26 cover + contents and chaos engine 2 page article

silkworm · 24 February 2012, 19:32

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.

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.

silkworm · 28 February 2012, 15:45

Uploaded Games-X Cover and Contents pages for

issues 20,21,22,23,24,27,28,30,32

will see about doing the indexes

Codetapper · 28 February 2012, 21:31

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

I have to have the imputus to do it.

Codetapper · 29 February 2012, 02:06

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!

Codetapper · 07 March 2012, 22:09

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

I reckon you should double it!!

Sadly enough, AMR attracts far fewer contributors than HOL, CAPS etc.! Good on ya Silkworm......

silkworm · 09 March 2012, 20:12

Uploaded 17 amiga pages from Games-X issue 13

and also 7 more pages from Amiga Computing Issue 23

and thanks DrBong

Codetapper · 09 March 2012, 21:22

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"

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

Codetapper · 10 March 2012, 00:05

I just checked, it's actually page 14 from issue 13! I'll fix it shortly...
