Okay, I'm a follower not a leader and readily admit it.  Can someone just push me toward a thread that needs to be archived?  *waves to everyone*

Hey Sue!

I'm not sure.  Moonshot our admin will know best what immediately needs saving.

        I ADMIT TO BEING COMPLETELY  COMPUTER ILLITERATE BUT I DO WANT TO THANK

        EVERYONE WHO IS WORKING SO HARD TO SAVE OUR PRECIOUS MEMORIES.

                       A VERY SPECIAL THANKS TO MICHEAL.

Sue, while you await further instructions with regard to threads, These peeps have a huuuuuge number of photos saved from the tours (especially the recent ones) that I've been working on. I started at the first tours and worked my way up through JNT 04. If you wanted to start saving the pics from the most recent tour (JNTIII/CITH), that would be helpful. Some can be clicked to increase the size and we all know bigger is better! *g*

I bet there are some of yours in there!

You got it baby!!!!  I have an entire external hard drive that I have not touched (if I can find it) so I have plenty of space!!!  Off to find CITH (it's a dirty job, but somebody has got to do it)

Fountaindawg and Suereu, thanks for coming aboard and helping

Fountaindawg and Suereu, thanks for coming aboard and helping

It's my pleasure!! Although it is a tad bit hazardous, I'm sitting here with a huge grin on my face looking at the pictures and it's beginning to hurt

FOUNTAINDAWG and SUERU, welcome.  Thank you so much for sharing  your talents and computer expertise with us.

  Lindsay!!! You are a genius!!! Your instructions on Page 4 of this thread work - and it is fast to save a page (haven't tried it on a multiple page yet, though - think I know how to do it). If the site stays up, maybe all of the ANN pages can be moved. I had given up on moving the Magazine Thread, but maybe that can also be moved.

Fountaindawg and Sueru - I am so impressed that you have come to help - but what else would a card-carrying member of the ClayNation do??? Thank You!

EDIT - I just tried this method on a 2-page ANN - the second page saved automatically!!! 

EDIT #2 - Anyone saving Threads - please try Lindsay's method. It took me all of yesterday morning to save 30 pages. I've just saved 26 pages in 25 minutes.

Glad it helped, Frankie!

Thanks for coming onboard, suereu!!

Lindsay - just one little glitch - and it won't apply to other threads. When writing the ANN, the year has not been added to the date (that probably needs to be changed in the future). For instance, there are 7 Threads named "AIKEN NEWS NETWORK JANUARY 1" I've done January-March for 2004 - just saved a thread from 2005 to check - cannot save the same date unless the year is added!

I have October 2003-March 2004 completely saved - I'm working on Page 74 of the ANN now. That is in addition to the dates saved yesterday. If someone wants to begin at today's date and meet me in the middle, that would be great! If no one can, I'll just keep working for as long as we are here.

[wvclayfan]

Should have specified the need for different file names, sorry. I've been adding 2,3,4,5,etc. to the end of mine, typically to represent the page number.

Don't know if it was needed or not, but I saved all of our smilies.

[fhmmany2]

Lindsay - I just saved all 64 pages of the Magazine Thread in less than 10 seconds  If we have enough members with computer space, we could really save everything.

[clayharmony]

Fountaindawg...I need to welcome you too...!!! I'm so sorry I didn't earlier...I'm in a bit of a fog...just learned of serious medical issues with both my sister and brother in law yesterday...anyway, it is so kind of you to be here helping...and I hope we'll continue to have your company and suereu's join us in the Clay excitement on this site, too!...eep...I mean our new site, once up its up...

[fhmmany2]

Has anyone saved anything from Fun Stuff - Pet Thread? Garden Thread? I just saved all 88 pages of the DWTS Thread - again - took less than 10 seconds, thanks to Lindsay.

Lindsay - off topic - I will be cheering for the Mountaineers and Meesa's Jayhawks in the Tournament this year - Memphis did not make it due to their jerk  former coach leaving and taking half of the team to Kentucky!!! 

[WilsonClaymate]

I have just saved

Clay in Concert and You
Spamalot threads
Montage Heaven
Then & Now Photo Thread

Will work on more.  If anyone has something they particularly want saved, please list it here

[wvclayfan]

Frankie - Are you saving entire threads as .mht files? I'm not quite sure how you're saving all of those pages in less than 10 seconds. Can you do me a favor? Open one of the files and click on a different page besides page 1. Watch the address bar. Does it change from C:/ (or wherever you have it saved) to claymaniacs.com? If so, it won't work once the site is taken down. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for for the 'Eers!! I'm hoping - for once - putting them into the Final Four in my bracket is not wishful thinking. Keeping my fingers crossed Memphis gets back on track next year.

[fhmmany2]

  Lindsay - it was too good to be true. I guess you have to "Save Page" on each individual page - at least this method is working quickly on the ANN, since the great majority of them are only one page. (Even with two pages saving them this way is much faster!) 

I will just have to delete the DWTS Thread.

At least personal Threads - such as Meet and Greets - can be saved this way and printed (at least I think they can be printed). They won't be on the new site, but at least they won't be completely lost.

Back to the ANN...................
