We were talking about
safehouses and things got a little off topic so I decided to move it here.
ok, well I have taken all the screenshots however they total a 20MB file size so it'll take me a while to upload it since I'm on dial-up but I'll get them uploaded by the end of tomorrow!

Dial up is the worst thing ever. Your dialup should be better in auss and usa though. right now i'm running on 49.2 Kbps and that's higher than my usual of about 46.

Nope, I only get 36kbps, well thats what windows tells me, usually I get speed of 4 Kilo Bytes Per Second.
Ok I have uploaded the images, but there are too many to post at the moment so you can explore the image ftp
here.
If it is a little confusing in the next couple of days I should have a page ready with everything on it.

Woah Crap! that's quite a surprise. I thought i did bad. I feel sorry for you in a non-condescending way.
I normally get about 3-4 Kbps for downlaods aswell.

I decided to move part of the other topic here since it was getting off topic.
3 hours sounds a little long for a song.
It must be a pretty big song, I can usually download 256k/bit quality sound three minute track in about 20 to 30mins.
for a place in America's you connection doesn't really seem all that fast.
DPLKicksAss maybe you want to consider looking and maybe downloading the videos that babbs has uploaded
in the
downloads section.

It is a long time but i download files that are about 10 megs a song cause i like the huge quality so i can play it loud.

The human ear can barely notice any difference between 160k/bit to 320k/bit quality.
I usually just download it at around 192k/bit...

I'm pretty sure it does make a difference if you are going to play it really loud. But not the sort of loudness you would want to listen to every day.

Or... It couldn't be, i listen to good classic old school rock.
Where would i be without my Bon Jovi or Jimmy Barnes?
