Sorry for lateness in replying. Thanks for everyone’s kind words. Here are some individual answers:

ZigZig: Yes! I’ve been a member of the Spleen for many years, but I have some sort of firewall issue that stops me from posting torrents there. I’d be honored if you wouldn’t mind posting it for me; I agree it definitely belongs there! (Although maybe we should have a footnote about correcting some aspect ratio issues in the 2.0 version; see below)

pittrek: You have a good eye! I kept watching that part myself, thinking something was different, but I couldn’t put my finger on it.

To the rest who were bringing up the aspect ratio issues, I agree; that should definitely be addressed in a “2.0” correction. I fell prey to being stuck with sources that were incorrect to begin with, and inside of those documentaries, the clips THEY used were often over-modified, on top of that…all I could do was do my best to try and bring them closer to the rest of the presentation. As LexX pointed out, I left the 4:3 alone, because after all, it was 4:3! Many things that were monkeyed with were done so inadvertently by the person who originally “ripped” the source documentary.

When I get ready to make the 2.0, maybe we should get a list together of the most offensive clips, and talk about what can be done with them, in this thread.

benduwan: Thank you, I will check it out!

Thanks again for all the kind words! I’m thrilled that this project is being enjoyed!
