I finally managed to get the ftp server to work for me. :brain: .
I'm gradually uploading the game disks, box scans etc, but there is no reviews.

A big thanks to everyone who offered to help with this uploading. k:

It's all done now - cds, box scans, manuals etc are all uploaded.

They just lack reviews. I think Marko River is doing Normality and Rocky Horror. The rest is up for grabs. k:

I'd like to make a suggestion here....

Abandonia already has the 'oldwarez list', but would it not be possible to add one extra icon to it?

Something along the lines of a 'We Want This' marker, maybe? Or a 'What's missing' list?

Then, when someone checks a game against the list, they can tell at a glance whether you already have it, need boxshots, etc....

I'll readily admit that I have no idea how much work it would take to do, but it would be useful

(PS. I have 3 Trilobyte games, if you want... I did post here offering them, not sure whether it was the right place or not....)

Hi Kezmoo. I believe the rule of thumb is that games over 60MB are too large to host on Abandonia and need to be hosted as ISOs on another site and linked here through the ISO cellar. The ISO cellar is a special forum available to members that have posted 100 times or more or are VIPs. (I could be wrong on that) I believe the games you are referring to probably are all too large and need to be in the ISO cellar. The Fifth Horseman can fill you in a little better than I. Anyway, welcome.
