Oh, dang, you were doing something for me and here I am pestering you. I don't know what the FTP's problem is. My computer's so slow and connection's so bad that I don't even bother trying to download anything anymore.
But I do appreciate the person that makes it available, when it is available. Thanks!

Thanks for the update Fluffy! If you guys need any help, just let me know - I'd be more than happy to help things keep going here :)
Speaking of which, I'm trying to hook up with a web server of my own that'll have gobs of ftp space. If I get my hands on it, I'll donate a Gig or two for ftp :)

OK, got my hands on the ftp server!!! However, it's gonna cost me just under $40/month. Which, for a 1G server is a fabulous price.
I just have to decide no weather or not to snag it up, I have a few days to think about it. But, if I do get it, it'll be ready in a matter of hours.

Thanks Liz, but I haven't commited to anything yet. I'm just putting it out there to see what kind of interest I can gather before I make a decision on weather or not to get it.

Go for it! If you want, we could bring like $5 bucks extra to a TR concert, give it to Fluffy, and then he'd in turn give it to you.

Hey Black Lotus, thanx for the offer, I have sent a email to Jon telling him to stop by this post and let you know if it can help us or not. Maybe it can help you make your decision. Hopefully he will post a response here or email you directly, or you can just email him.

OK, number one ... I don't expect, nor would I ever ask anyone to help me foot the bill. I'll do this as a simple token of appreciation for TIM's music and all the fans that want to hear and spread his music. If you want to donate money, that's entirely up to you - again, I don't expect to get help, nor am I asking for it.
Numero Two ... If Jon can clear up the current ftp server, we probably won't need it. But, if he feels that it would be a good idea to get another one up and running, I'll probably get it.
Three ... well, there is no three, but I thought I'd put it here anyway
~Peace

Again I say, "Noone gave me any money to give to Black Lotus!" I don't know what you are talking about, I never had possessed the aforementiond funds. And NO! I did not buy my self these kewl CD's with that money, there is no way I would do something like that.
by the way this post is Fa-Laaaming!!!

That is kewl it is such a great deal. I don't quite understand about all that space and how FTP's work but here is what I talked about with Jon. By your first post I got the impression that you would have lots of Gigs and were willing to donate a Gig or two for an FTP site for TR. Next post I get the impression you only get 1 Gig. Why would you want to give us the only Gig you get? Am I just not understanding how it works? Certainly wouldn't surprise me. Anyway here's the deal from Jon's end, He says it would be great to have a reliable FTP site to put the MP3's and SHN's for ID and Petroglyph so that when people stopped by the site to download they would ALWAYS be available. The present FTP site seems to be down more than up and Jon has had a hard TIMe getting hold of Dani to find out what is going on. Bottom line, Jon checked, and to host ID and Petroglyph takes up about 1.25 Gigs. IF you only get 1 Gig I certainly don't want to take your only Gig. Hopefully you are getting like 40 or 400 Gigs or something and you can still make the offer of 1 or 2 gigs. LMK and we will see if we can work something out. IF you can't do it, no worries, we still appreciate the offer. You could be the official host of TR "ID" and "Petroglyph". How's that sound? Thanx again for the offer, whatever happens. WE totally understand if you can't spare the space.

The entire site is 1G ... I'd get it just to host the TIM stuff. No sweat. Getting more than that gets REALLY expensive. 5G is about $100 a month, that's a bit too expenive for me unless I had some alterier motive or use for it. But, I would have no other use for it than TIM stuff.
I'll look around and see what else I can find at a reasonable price and get back to you.
The other site I was trying to get a hold of kinda fell through, at least for now it did. Friend of mine is supposedely setting up a dedicated server for one of his websites that's he's building. He would have given up MAD amounts of space ... along the lines of 50-75G, which would have rocked. ANd of course, a fee of $25 a month for his troubles :)
Fluffy, shoot me an email and I can give you my number if you want to call me and get more details.

Maybe someone could just start a Petroglyph Tree. Or start a tree with anything for those of us that will take 3 days to download stuff. Then we can all get it, and we can all trade it.
Trees are good, as long as they are done right, which they often are not. Just ask Ryan from way back, huh?
I'd be willing, and I'd sure help.

I made a few phone calls today, so I'm waiting to hear back and see what I can get. I'll keep y'all posted.

I talked to TR about this subject and he thinks he may have a friend in Santa Fe who can reliably host "ID" and "Petroglyph" so we will see what happens. Thanx to everyone for all there help, support, and ideas concerning this matter. Hopefully we will get it resolved one way or another soon.
