Have shot a warning across his bows before I get ebay to pull the auction Rob , As I said to Iain, would not mind if I could find someone else scanning different stuff in so more mags could be preserved,rather than just pulling apart the predone dvd`s grrr :evil:

How about adding a watermark at your scans? Or maybe a copyright remark? Most of the time people dont pay attention to such things

Much as I appreciate the hard work that's gone into scanning the magazines, and the team's frustrations in seeing their work ripped off by a prat with a DVD burner, trying to claim copyright on them would be a definite no-no.

Just one of those things Ian, I agree, anyhow I don`t think he will sell many in that way as people tend to have the mags or know of the site if they want the scans. Best left alone.

Mocher is my new version of Moocher for those who want to save time typing :wink:

Speaking of which... now I've finally got a bit of my own money, I must order some of these from you, Mort. Probably after the first of August. :)

Ordered ZZAP! and Crash DVDs last Friday. :D

The reason I mention this is just as a reminder, because I know that sometimes when folks offer things like this that aren't ordered every single day, they might not necessarily check for new orders as regularly. No criticism of you, Mort, (for all I know you're probably better than some I've dealt with and may be on the case as I speak!)I just know from experience that that can be how it goes sometimes! :)

Can't wait to dive into them. :D

Many thanks, Mort, absolutely top work, man! Your efforts are very much appreciated. It feels extraordinary to have access to all these mags with such convenience. Brilliant. :D
