ckwan99 Uploads
« on: April 29, 2011, 07:10:34 AM »

I'm new to this, but I just uploaded seven Spirit Sections. Two of them however returned the message 'files of this type are not permitted'.  I know that cbr files cannot be uploaded, but renaming them to cbz didn't seem to work either.  However, a couple of the others that were uploaded successfully were cbr files also.  So ??? 
Files uploaded (forgot which two didn't go successfully):

Spirit Section: 1944-02-13
                    1944-04-23
                    1944-04-30
                    1944-06-11
                    1944-07-09
                    1944-10-08
                    1945-01-07

I will upload more tomorrow.

One request: could a moderator reset my download bandwidth.  Thanks.

Yes, chwan99, sadly, our upload feature is broken, and our attempts thus far to fix it have not been successful. Our long range plan is to move to a different platform, so it hasn't been a priority to us.

I think it will be best to get you our FTP details, and will do a quick in with our other admins to make sure that is OK, then will PM you the details.

So did any of my uploads get through?  I received error messages on only two.

Are you talking about ftp uploads?

ckwan99,

None of the new listings show any Sprit Sections, so I believe that none made it. Now that you have the FTP details, upload all that you have, and post so that one of the admins can bring it over to the site.

Let up know if you have any issues with using the FTP site.  I am looking forward to seeing them...those short-format Eisner stories are great!

Just loaded 27 Spirit Sections onto the FTP.  Looks like it went through fine.  Much faster than I expected.

Please let me know if you can't get it. thx.

Think I spoke too soon.  I most likely didn't upload anything to the FTP.  Thought it went too fast.

How do I upload to the FTP?  I thought I could just drag and drop.  But apparently that won't work.

You need to have an FTP program (not an FTP server just a program)  If you run Firefox you can download an add-in called FireFTP that will run (under tools). 
http://fireftp.mozdev.org/

I'm sure other browsers probably have their own as well, and an FTP program is a useful program to have. 

If you still can't get it to work upload your zipped or rared files to sendspace
http://www.sendspace.com/
or the like and I'll FTP them for you once you send me the links by PM.

Downloaded these new Spirit sections over the weekend and have been checking them out.  Really cool seeing them in their original unaltered forms along with the backups like Powell's Mr. Mystic, Lady Luck and co.  Thanks for uploading them!

Best
