Oh that crazy Marv...here we go again.

This is just an idea I had one day. I was looking through all my many disks for a particular
Poser file that I downloaded years ago. And the more I looked the more I realized just how
much stuff I have downloaded over the years. We've all done it. We've all collected a
multitude of Poser freebies fully intending to use them at the time and end up forgetting
about them. I found things that I had forgotten about and items that just can't be found
anymore. Then the idea hit me. I said to myself "Marv, I said, Why not build an archive site
that resides on your computer and catalog all the freebies that you have collected so they
would be easy to find?" So that's exactly what I did. This way when I have an idea for an
image and need a particular file I can look through my repository first rather than spend
countless hours searching online for a file that may not even be available anymore. The
index and the accompanying item pages are catagorized into groups such as figures, props,
textures, etc. Read me files, authors, item descriptions along with e-mail addresses and
website addresses accompany the related items as well as thumbnails. Now there are alot
of web addresses and e-mails that are no longer valid but I have them handy if for nothing
else the sake of completion.

The reason I took the time to do this is because (1) I had too much time on my hands. (2) It
saves me time when I do have a particular project in mind. All I have to do is to do a
search through my own personal repository. (3) We all know how the internet works, One
minute a site is offering freebies and for whatever reason the site is down, gone forever
and so are the freebies. This way I can check and see if I have a file that is no longer
accessible online.

I have already filled up one DVD with a huge amount of files and am soon to be finishing up
a second DVD. The second DVD is filled up with utilities, tutorials and the like. Now I
could never and would never offer these disks up for sell or copy. These are my own personal
archived collections. But even though I can't share these items due to copyright and author
reasons they can still benefit others. For example someone posts in one of the forums that
they are looking for a particular file. Even though I can't e-mail the file I can e-mail the
site address and/or the authors e-mail address.

Anyways, this is just an idea I had and thought to share it with all my friends at PosetteForever.
Who knows, perhaps you'll make your own personal archive collections. :D
