Re: Missing files from Family pictures zip....



I did get the entire 200+ Mb of family pictures and it runs
fine. There might be a problem with the multiple zip files 
but the primary zip file (the huge file) works fine for me. 
I am going to use a different compression program Winrar
to compress what is working on mine and let me know 
if you need me to upload the album which will be a
self extracting archive with multiple files of 15MB each.

Subject: Missing files from Family pictures zip....


It appears that some versions of zip software have some sort of a limit on
the number of files that can be contained in a zip.  I think this is what
caused a number of you to tell me that there were files missing from the
zip file I created.  This is possible because the real cd has
somewhere around 18k files!!   Since I don't have time to look for a way
to better zip the file, I simply mirrored the full Family Pictures Cd at:
ftp://marcswanson.ne.mediaone.net/pub/ETKA/Full_CD

grab the files that are missing from there, and if you really want to be
cool, make up a zip file of the ones that are missing from the original
zip and I will make that available.

Thanks
