Needed: 1 archival CD copy of everything that is on Alt. Biker Mice Site right now since things are getting a minor upheavel July 31st. So if the minor upheavel doesn't go over well, I have the old style to go back to.
Problem: No Internet access at home.
Solution: Get it at work.
Problem: No way to get the files off the web control panel.
Solution: They actually gave us WS_FTP, which I didn't find until after I started this blog. *Crossing fingers.*
Problem: FTP program works. I cannot fit the info onto the CD. Which doesn't make any sense because I can at home with the Nero CD burning program. This is the third CD I've lost because the data screwed it up.
Solution: Borrow the C drive until I can get files downloaded and zipped and then on a CD.
Problem: Now the FTP program went kuput. Looks like I got most of what I told it to get. So all I'm missing is a section of From Mars and the FanFic and FanArt sections.
Solution: Try again. After some lawsuits.
Okay. After throwing away the 5th CD for getting errors in the writing (maybe I bought a bad batch, or at least an incompatible batch), I switched CDs and finally got it to save. SUCCESS!
However, I'm not deleting anything until I see if it works at home.
