I guess we should do that.

Still it's not likely that they will make problems, since we will use old stuff which are already forgoton or can be found on net for free. Also, we will surley mention the name of the magazine, right?

Main idea was to drag people from whole world to do this, so we can see same themes in different countries. Hope this will happen :w00t:

I have almost every PC Gamer mag going back to 1994

Pictures of my magazines!

I also have some old PC Games:

My PC Games

I'm not sure, but I have Outcast which may be considered Abandonware. I would love to contribute whatever I can.

Also... I love this site! I love the fact that this site focuses on the passion people have for abdonware. Most sites I have found are ugly sites with links to link that probably won't work. Keep up the good work! You're doing a great job of distracting me from my final exams :-P.

I'm in total awe of your organisational skills. :w00t: Glad you're enjoying the site.

Well, you've read where Kosta (site owner) said that he'd love to have articles about old games, so anything you'd like to contribute would be appreciated by him and us. I'm not Admin so I don't have any say on this, but I think anyone who contributed some of these articles, and even a game as you suggested, might have a faster trip to VIP status.

btw if we are going to do this we need the permission of the magazines to do this.

I'll email a couple of the Aussie game/computer magazines now and see what they say.

Thanks wendymaree! My girlfriend swears that I have some form of OCD. When exams start, I usually starting cleaning my entire place. My favorite slogan is "If it's not in alphabetical/categorical/chronological order, then it needs to be!"

I would love to contribute, but my writing skills are lacking. I'll see what I can do though.Not sure what this VIP thing is, but I'm not worried about trying to attain that status. I just want to give something back to the community.

Your writing skills look pretty fine to me. k: However if you'd just like to upload games/a game, there's no need to review as well. Tom Henrik is the one to contact about what games to upload and where to upload, btw.

Thanks, Mucman. Glad to have you here.

Kosta, Tom and others...... WHEN can we expect this new section to be build?

I can't send anythimg in next 10 days (exam, what can I say) but I surley will. Well, if other people want to contribute, they need to know how. I will be glad to volunteer in order to check new texts and to check with the magazines. I guess wendymaree won't mind either.

To Everyone who has older magazines : Why should you type the material when you can just SCAN it.It`s faster,easy and better,cause the other will have the opportunity to see the original article.With photographs and everything.
For those who are busy with studying it won`t take too much time,but only a couple of minutes depending on the pages.I`m not pushing anyone!Think about that.

Thanks wendymaree! Like marko_river I am in the middle of my exams so nothing is much is going to happen until I am done. Then I am going away for Christmas (yay -30C). I've always wanted to backup all my games anyways so this will be given me two reasons to do it!

I don't have a scanner so I can't scan my magazines . Also, I believe you won't get good scan results unless you slice off the bindings. That's the last thing I want to do to my collection!

Wow,Mucman..first of all any good internet club or bookstore has scanner.Or you can ask some friend.And for few funny cents you can scan the bible .Second,if you want good scan of a book or magazine you can bend the front cover to the back cover and than scan it as you press the magazine with the scanner`s hood.If the magazine or book is too big.It won`t make any damage to the object in the scanner.Everything problem has a solution. k: Simple.Isn`t it. :angel:
Again - I just want to tell how easy it is.Not pushing you,cause I really like the whole idea.
