Looking for someone to give me a hand with those files that are in emulator format, i don't have enough room on my computer for all required to do it. To transfer to AVI for either setup for me to download or mail me the files. This takes time, i will offer something in return. i have plenty of things to choose from. secretdefender@warpmail.net or reply If this type of post is not allowed, by all means remove and let me know so i won't do it again.

How can you possibly not have room for the emulator movies if you want the AVIs? The emulator files are less than 1% in size of the AVIs. What do you have to offer anyway that can be sent via the internet? Money transfers? I can help you for some money.

I can download the actual files. According to the website instructions to transfer to AVI it is needed several things which my computer don't have room. I'm making VCDs from the AVI, emulator file it won't put on VCD. I usually can only download 2-4 avi files at a time to transfer, 2gb max @ dial up. So far i've collected about 12 hours worth. All of them that are in emulator file and not avi and they are few bittorrent files without avi that i am unable to download probably cause 1/2 seed, jackal for one. Other websites also use emulator files only, them too. Money [check or money order] is an option, i also have tv shows, retail movies, video games, comics to exchange for the service and time; not used on the actual files or i could send a vhs, dvd-rw, or dvd+rw of the files instead of storing them on your computer that is if you save them I could probably send chocolates but in the heat it would melt before arrive.

Not if you put them into a battery-powered refrigerator. ;))

Aha, so what you really want to do is convert the emulator movies to AVI? (This was not clear from your initial message.) I think just downloading the files via BitTorrent is the easiest way. If some file stays at ½seed for a long time, you can ask in the IRC channel for it to be seeded. (Usually that happens automatically after someone has started downloading it.) The money thing was just a joke, by the way, because you didn't sound serious. If you want to give away some you can donate to the site instead, since it's what supplying us all with encoded AVIs and somewhere to meet.

Jackal finally did download alright but there are others. When there is no avi available is what i'm asking about for someone to give me a avi file on it; very serious; there will also be some that last over an hour i don't have room for. Money or sometype of trade is fine, of course i would go first then after arrival of whatever agreed upon can then start either i can download them or send them on a disc. I emailed the owner {way before this 1st message} asking that i could donate awhile back ago but could only use money order or check and didn't receive a reply. Besides my own website, email, search engines this is one of the few web sites i visit often, i didn't even know this type of thing existed until i accidentally ran across it
