Title: Books and Newsletters
Post by: skateblind on July 13, 2009, 03:32:15 AM
I will be scanning these books and news letters at some point, just thought I should show them to you first, just in case they are already available somewhere.

Well, I don't have that one, so scan and upload it please. :)

EDIT: I have uploaded the first pdf and attached it to this post. Let me know what you think about the quality and layout, if you like it, then I will continue to do the rest.

It looks good to me!  I just wish there were as many people still using AmosPro today.

Great! Nice to see these things preserved.
Would you be ok with it if I used your scans on amigacoding.com?

I would be fine with that. Give the right people credit though for each newsletter or book. Some credit for scanning the stuff would be nice. :)
I am not sure about the whole legality of this stuff, so don't put any contact details for me. ;)
I'll finish off some more of the pdfs tonight.

Issue #1 looks great, thanks for uploading it.

I don't have the equipment to scan issue #0, but I do have multiple copies of it. I could send one to someone here who can scan it for us.

Have more scans been done yet :) ?
I've setup a page for AMOS magazines on amigacoding.com (http://amigacoding.com/index.php/AMOS:Magazines).
Somewhere I have issues for Dutch AMOS magazines which I might scan too. It might take a while though before I find the time to do so.

I've also got a few questions:

All the scanning is done, I just need to put the images onto an easy to use pdf.  :)

There were only 4 issues with the first volume of official newsletters, but I don't know how many the second volume went up to. I have 4 issues of volume two, that may be as high as they went it.  ???

I also have issue one and two of the 'All about AMOS' newsletters.
