  1. Thank you I will do that, I've got half of a magazine scanned now. I found the pinned "How-to" thread to cover most everything I was wondering about but I'm sure something will come up . I like that everyone here works as a team. I thought the scanning was going to take awhile but now I realize the editing is going to be the most time consuming. Thanks again.
  2. Hey everyone again. I got a working scanner finally and am working on learning the scanning process. Hopefully I can scan and edit with quality. Anyway finally I can contribute!
  3. Thats a good point, maybe as computer specific magazines start being available, more will come. Either way I need to get my scanner working.
  4. Thanks for the welcome. I am glad that those links were useful. I really like the early CGW mag, especially through the 80's. I love that early game designers shared their insight regularly, programmers like Chris Crawford and Dan Bunten. Heres a C64 mag archive in PDF format.

  5. Hello everyone, I'm obviously new here and I wanted to say this is such a valuable service that everyone is working on here. I didn't know about this site until a few days ago. I have always thought there should be a network to save the old mags before they are lost and here it is! Thank you! In 1991 I lost two complete years of Electronic Games and Electronic Fun Magazines as well as a bunch of Commodore magazines in a fire. It's odd but I still feel that loss even today, so I understand the importance of saving these treasures. I want to help and am working on finding a power supply for a scanner I have. I have 4 issues of Electronic Games from 1983, 1 issue of Electronic Fun also from 1983 and some Commodore mags. Not much I know but these are just a few mags I found. I notice there are very few computer specific magazines. Are these kinds of magazines of interest to anyone? I have some Commodore RUN magazines and one Commodore Power/Play. I'm sure everyone here knows already but Computer Gaming World released their vintage magazines for download 1981-1992 archives. Just wanted to say, just in case. Archive here http://cgw.vintagegaming.org/galleries/ind...ub=2&id=500 and here http://pdf.textfiles.com/zines/CGW/ I am attending college, have two kids and work a lot but I really do want to help and upload what I have. Thanks again
