Anyway, it's done and up and running - finally!!!! (If you're wondering why it's up at Comcast rather than where I had it earlier, I've decided to take my interest in trek (especially in TNT in particular!) seriously enough to kiss dial-up goodbye and say hello to high speed cable broadband internet instead - and oh man, does it ever feel like Heaven going from 56 kilobytes per second to 12 megabytes per second!!!!!!! I know, welcome to the 21st century, eh?)

Isn't that a great feeling, to finally be connected properly? Suddenly, sites like youtube will take on a whole new significance! (Just keep an eye on the amount of bandwidth you're using if you have a limited allowance, it's amazing how fast it goes.)

Oh, it feels like Heaven itself. It just seems unreal the difference it makes. Thanks for the bandwith info there, but hopefully I won't have a problem. Comcast gives folks 250 GB per month of bandwith and I checked it after a really long session (of about 9 hours of grabbing pics off that telestrekoza site to use as body shots for fakes) and it had only used up 1 GB of bandwith. Haven't tried looking at videos at Youtube or elsewhere yet, but I'll keep an eye on the bandwith thing though, thanks for the advice.

i find netflix eats a lot of bandwidth (anytime you're sitting there in front of the tube just watchin shit your bandwidth can go way up).

A month ago my mom (who works at the cable co) told me they were going to start charging for bandwidth ! and she was using MY acct as an example in staff mtgs of how some people (like me) were going to end up paying like $250/month for inet with the packages they had set up. They went ahead and said they were doing it anyway, and so the **** hit the FAN with the public!

and so of course my mom and everyone was getting 100's of angry calls a day about it, and since the provider is like the only cable inet in all of western canada, it was going to affect everyone. And guess what? The federal gov't stepped in a few weeks ago, smacked them down publicly, and said they weren't allowed! lol (prolly cause the GOVT's own bill would have shot through the stratosphere.) Ahhhhh.....sometimes a little socialism is nice. *

Hi Everyone,

Sorry I haven't posted in ages. First my computer died and I was offline till I could afford to buy a new one, then something happened today that made me decide not to put a downloads page on my website. Oh, I might still eventually put links to some things on the main web page itself, like here's my Trip & T'Pol music video on YouTube, the Enterprise screencaps I put on Photobucket (and the zipped full season files of them here at Comcast), etc - but as far as making a downloads page itself that could be anonymously seen by folks I don't know and don't know if I can trust, naw - bad idea! I guess I was pretty naive in the first place to think that was a good idea and that all Enterprise fans are nice, trustworthy folks who wouldn't rat a person out to the authorities over such moron things as thinking making my Trip & T'Pol music video or screencapping episodes of Enterprise was a copyright violation. I mean hell, YouTube's hosting the video and Photobucket has the screencaps up there, so I'm sure it's legally okay to share my own personal creations - I mean, I'm not infringing on my rights as the creator of them if I want to share them with others, !!! Anyway, needless to say, I caught royal hell this morning from 4shared over that, and that doesn't make sense.

Well, that sucks. And sorry to hear about the other problems that have kept you offline recently, too.

Thanks Cogito, I appreciate that.

Hi,
I've updated this post with a new post here http://triaxiansilk.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1927&p=86323#p86323
(I've added individual character folders (of Trip and T'Pol so far, the rest of the cast will follow as I get to them) and I put in a now corrected folder on Photobucket and corrected links on my website for 2x24 - First Flight episode screencaps- my apologies to anyone who downloaded the season 2 screencaps before I discovered this error last night).
