Thank you Shane, and guys OK I will carry on regardless!The "Rise of the Alliance" is complete and finished and "out there", and does fit in with the other fan fics so far.All my ideas about the history of the Alliance are in my story, on the X-archive. I would be quite chuffed i...

Hey Bradster, you certainly know your stuff!I will check out Audacity, thank you.I'm glad I established early on that I'm not that tech-savvy when it comes to computers/web stuff. That way I can say daft things and get away with it I agree with Brad about the term "Wiki", it might not soun...

Hey guys I like the Wiki idea, very up-to-date, and just the thing IMHO to bring in "new" people.Don't see anything wrong with using the word "Wiki" though, it actually means quick or fast (can't remember which language it's from).The work so far looks very impressive! QUOTEGiven...

Thanks for moving that sound file BTW, impressive sound clips Shane!I'm playing around with Paul Bliss's soundtrack CD at the moment. Trying to create some ringtones for my Mobiles (home and work )I'm also trying to put back some of the sound cues and bites that Paul removed for his remastered versi...

Right, well I've scanned the X-Bomber Japanese soundtrack LP sleeve, plus poster. Sadly even at A3, the scanner couldn't quite pick up everything (LP's are slightly bigger than A3), so I've had to do things in stages. Now I've got to try to patch the images together in PhotoPhop. For me that's like ...

Ummm, wonder if I fall into category 3?LOL! I'm trying to move that X-bomber engine sound I added, from the "Soundtracks and Themes" gallery into Shane's new "Sound Effects" gallery, as I think it's more appropriate there, but I'm not sure how?I'm more at home operating machines ...

Heh heh, that is just great! Really made me chuckle, thanks for the link.

Thanks for the info Crash, What a helpful Forum this is.I will try the link out.Oh yeah, I remember the Smartgun, you really know your stuff.I was talking about those unmanned sentry guns. They were cool. I remember their really obvious numerical display showing how many rounds were left, for maximu...

A friend of mine sent me a sound clip of X-Bomber's engines as it takes off. I've uploaded it to the X-Archive. It's in .wav format, but it's not that great. If you can use it Crash, you are most welcome.Sorry if it's no good, I'm just trying to help

Heh heh, I can see I'm in good company here, the Smartgun (that was it then), was one of my Fave scenes as well. Pity it was cut from the original film, the way those guns cut through the marauding masses of Aliens was pretty awesome. Having used Grids in real life, I don't think they could have don...
