Anyone interested?

Well ive just downloaded a load of jpgs. Next step will be to check theyre all ok, do any resizing/touching up in photoshop, rename them all to something more intuitive and then import in to SU. Hopefully before friday, maybe even by the end of the weekend if i ge some spare time.

Great idea Remus, I can contribute too, I have plenty I've photographed/created myself, so no copyright problems
-
Hmmm, well ive done it, but nearly all the files are bigger than the 4mb upload limit.
Id really like to avoid splitting the files up, so does anyone have any cunning plans?
They're already zipped btw.
Edit: no worries guys, im going to use rapidshare.
-
There you go, enjoy. BTW the files will becoem inactive after they havent been downloaded for more than 90 days. Can anyone think of a more permanent solution?
-
men... that good to share.... try to use massmaterialimport.rb plugin to convert in skp all images that u touch in a folder when u try to import one of them... try it and tell me. do what i did... and them store them in separated compressed folder.

I'll look into it, Remus. Thanks for the collection!
-
Juan, the problem with that solution is that none of the textures will be correctly sized, so its a real pain when you need to apply lots of materials if you have to resize them all as you go. Thanks for the pointer though.

what do you mean exactly? they will become inactive where they are stored? will something similar occur to them in my HD?
-
The website theyre hosted on deletes any files that havent had a download in 90 days.
They definetly WONT be deleted form your hard drive

I'm hoping Gaieus could host them on the SCF server, I've had endless problems trying to download stuff from Rapidshare when using the free service.

How come juju? whats the problem?
-
after you download the first file they make you wait progressively longer periods of time for the next free downloads.
i managed to do it over a period of one and half days.
-
I'll see if ic an find any alternative hosting, that sounds pretty crap.
sorry guys
-
have a look at http://www.4shared.com/ . i have been using it with my students but have no idea how it is to dwld more than one file from it.

Very often the code you have to enter to get the download started doesn't work - even though you entered it accurately and correct.
I've used rapidshare in the past quite successfully, but it was with a paid membership.
Also, please don't go the "MegaUpload" route, I (and I think a lot of other people) don't want to install another toolbar just to download something.
-
Cheers for the tips guys. I'll keep searching.

Yes, indeed, RapidShare is a really annoying site. Last time (like Juju said) I had to wait twice because the code was wrong and once it evenit said that all the strings for my country were in use (or was this latter one another annoying site?)
On a side note, I actually do not really like imageshack either for it is often so slow to finally download/display an image from there...
