but remove the {} above and replace them with [] - the code will then work and the picture should be embedded 😃

^ I look forward to that day mate 😃

It would seem this is our best hope so far for a 4K unaltered Original Trilogy release?:-

poita’s ‘The Original Trilogy restored from 35mm prints’ - ongoing project - donations welcome…

massive thanks to ‘none’ for bumping the thread below - some great work here by ‘none’ and Treadwell:-

Treadwell Collection - link

Many thanks go out to TREADWELL who took the time and energy to preserve these Star Wars memories. From specials, commercials, interviews, to news reports and more, these tapes provide view points of the evolution of the Star Wars phenomenon.’ - none.

But what if you want to preserve the the surprise of the crawl?

Order:

1. Watch Crawl from ANH
2. Hold up hand made title card that says “but first” or “24 hours earlier…”
3. Watch Rogue One
4. Resume ANH
5. Profit

I prefer watching this crawl just before watching Rogue One… (only really helps if you have already seen Star Wars (1977))

though yours works too - and has the added bonus of watching Star Wars too afterwards 😃

I hope you return soon mfm - though also enjoy your time away.

You’ll be missed.

Thread locked.

Enough is enough.

Some posters on here would do well to check their attitude towards fellow members of the community.
 

If this spills over into any other thread then that thread too will be locked - and bans will be issued.

If anyone has an issue with this feel free to PM me.

This thread will be unlocked in a few days.

Well in 1,000 Challenge - a great gesture - really hope it goes well 😃

Everyone has indeed has their own eccentricities, interests and such like - and no-one deserves to be mocked for them.

And with that we’ll leave the whole subject there - and move on.

If anyone has any issues please feel free to PM me.

Very cool art - and like dahmage says above - a top idea too 😃

On the face of this… it seems a very kind and noble gesture to aid the funding of ROTJ:R - though we obviously have some concerns that this may not be legit.
 

We are asking around to get some info - for now - please do not send copies of paypal receipts.

Hopefully this turns out to be legit - though we are sure ‘1000 Challenge’ understands why we have to be a little careful…
 

Edit - this kind offer by 1,000 Challenge is indeed legit. (thank you Ady & doubleofive for the info)

Please read the this post by 1,000 Challenge - http://originaltrilogy.com/post/id/1126679 - and hope many members can donate some funds 😃

Did they ever fix/change the colour of Vader’s lightsabre in this?

In the lightsabre battle with Vader is was a real pain to see how we was attacking you (the last time I played this the sabre was black) - which on the black background of the Death Star made it very difficult to play)

Really enjoyable game though - those lads did a lot of quality work to get it as good as they did 😃
 

Edit - it seems from this top video below - they did indeed change the sabre colour to red 😃 I may have to give this another play…

^ the sad eyes on that.

Nice one - ta Frink.

Wiki (if correct) has them doing a soundtrack album too ‘Breathing’ - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_Youth_(band)

May well search both albums out - youtube has a few videos etc, but it’s not quite the same as putting the headphones on and giving an album a really good listen.

Led Zeppelin - Immigrant Song.

Quality beat and feel that 😃

Electric Youth - “A Real Hero”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cedWvuxwbc

I think I could easily get into Electric Youth - a nice flashback to good old 80’s, the girl can sing, they have a great sound, with a good 80’s style visuals too in a few videos too 😃

I hope a good night’s sleep has resulted in a fresh approach to each other today.
 

No more name calling, no more baiting, no more antagonizing, no more posting along the lines of ‘Seriously, I am starting to daydream about ripping the throats of any one of you right out of your neck for treating me this way…’
 

If there is a problem - please report it to a moderator - thank you.

Very cool - and cheers for the scanning set-up window pic too - always wondered just what controls, options and layout etc there was 😃

I get this via context, but only via context. Are you sure those are all actual words?

They may not all be necessarily in the right order - but they are all words 😉

These two are quite good - both contain the F word - so it’s up to the respective members if they want to click on it or not…

A higher-quality version of the edit is now available on MySpleen! Check it out!

Can you send me a invitation to MySpleen for download the higher-quality version of your edit?

Many thanks.

Unfortunately myspleen themselves have disabled / stopped new issuing invites.

For more info please read this:-

It may well be worth sending swagbeditor a PM to see if he has made this available elsewhere too.

Good luck with it 😃

Just a reminder that there are alternatives to using discs out there (buying the various materials - discs, quality paper, cases, burning the discs - and coasters, printing with all that expensive ink - the mistakes etc)…

The humble USB flash drive may be an option - a fair few blu ray players have a USB port, and more people have a computer next to or near their tv these days…

housed in a nice box or case - or just left on a shelf next to the dvd / blu ray collection - with more alternatives in here:-
