Ever since the "upgrade" of the PTG site we haven't been able to=
 access the archives except with google...which works.  =
 Personally, I'm not crazy about the new format...no offense to=
 those who have slaved for weeks to upgrade it...it would be nice=
 to know what alleged advantages the new format has over the=
 old.

Ron -
I know there is a problem here you are trying to resolve, but I'm=
 not sure this is the answer. To quote from the instructions on=
 the ptg.org/files page:



When a file is uploaded it sends an email to the moderator so it=
 should be approved or deleted within a day or two. 

Given the way graphics have become intrinsic to many of the=
 discussions here, such a delay seems to pose a significant=
 obstacle to the flow of ideas.   For example, it's only 1:12 AM=
 right now, and I can't see the image of bent tuning pins Clark=
 Sprague sent over an hour ago.  (=
 http://www.ptg.org/files_add.php)   Unless you're willing to=
 assign a surrogate, or junior monitor when you are not=
 available, it acts a bit like a curfew. 

Just an initial observation, though I'm glad to see you're=
 trying.

I want some of you who have files to share to try the files area=
 of the web 
site.  It gives you a place to upload files and create a database=
 entry for 
searching the files that are there.  

Go to  http://www.ptg.org/files
The directions should be clear. I have set this up so that the=
 files are 
uploaded to a staging area and I will act as moderator to be sure=
 they are 
what they are supposed to be before uploading them to the public=
 area.  
This area is open to the whole world so this is a necessary=
 precaution to 
keep out spammers and others.  

I have set a limit of 2MB per file, this should be adequate for=
 most things.  
You might resize pictures before you upload them since they will=
 be viewed 
onscreen.  

Let's see how this works.
