Dear Friends (all our members, and all our many guests) --
We're starting a new initiative, called The Avalon Library. A rather grand title, but it'll basically consist of a series of sizeable uploads (images, audios, videos) that will all be listed here.
Because this is a resource thread, it'll be technically 'closed'.. meaning, all that will be here will be the various ongoing updates. That'll make it as easy as possible to find things.
Although this is an old idea, the recent history of this can be read here..
A request for funding for a resource to benefit all members
.. where, within an hour :clapping: , members rapidly donated what was needed for an annual subscription to WeTransfer, enabling 100 Gb of files to be stored with user-friendly, permanent download links for all kinds of things, without loading up the existing Avalon server and risking logjamming the forum.
Comments and discussion (and also requests, because I've got quite a lot of stuff I can share) are most welcome on this separate thread:
The Avalon Library: discussion and requests
As we've been explaining on the request for funding thread (repeated here because that was for members only), this new setup is likely to be temporary, as Paul is researching a different, more broad-based resource that will enable even more material to be stored. If we do move the library, all the contents will be transferred as well and nothing will be lost.
Many will be aware that I've periodically been uploading material for sharing over the last year or so, each time with a limited (7 day) link. If anyone would like anything there to be re-uploaded permanently, just let me know on the discussion thread.
My sincere thanks once again to everyone whose swift generosity helped to make this possible. :sun:
