Just Finished scanning help Uploading

I just finished scanning and editing one missing gamepro  Gamepro march 2001 (#140 at retromags.com). thanks to all the members for the help editing the mag!. I just dont know how to upload the mag. ...

Getting started depends on the file size.  Is it over 400 meg?  If not, you'll want to visit the Downloads section, navigate to the GamePro category, and click the Upload File button.

 

For the "Click to Upload Screenshots" section you'll want to upload a thumb of the issue cover.  If I recall, something sized to around 500 pixels in height should do.

 

If you'd rather, you can make the file available somewhere online (Dropbox, Google Drive, archive.org, etc) and a RetroMags admin can upload the issue for you.  We'll ensure you receive proper credit for the upload.

 

Thanks for your help with the preservation effort!

I can't see that microscopic pic you posted, but I'm guessing you need to use the FTP to upload.  It's got nothing to do with speed.  My internet is blazing fast, but in my experience anything over 100MB has to be uploaded via the FTP method.
