    I know there must be some Calvin and Hobbes fans on here. I'm just wondering whether this site will stay up for long :/

    Still, best get 'em in while we can eh?

    Well found. And there I was thinking you weren't good for anything ;)

    Is there any software that can do the dirty deed for you or do you have to do it manually?

    Can you do it once your finished at the office and send me a copy?

    I have about 5 of the books, but it would be great to have them all digitally.

    Awesome. My gran used to buy me the cartoon books....
  • Deleted user 3 March 2005 21:34:02
    Hmmm, might be best to check through the strips quickly just to make sure they've all been ripped. I've found some that have been half downloaded and had to manually put them in.

    For the uninitiated.

    Just reading that, it says that there'll be a complete collection in three hardcover volumes will be published this September, not sure whether that means in just America, I'm not sure how transatlantic terms are with books. Hopefully before christmas then..

    You mean like Panda and Max have done? It's often nice to have a digital, portable copy of something you already have in paper format.

    There's no point firing off "you guys" generalised accusations and getting on your high moral horse when at least two people in the thread already have the books.

    Oh look, cubby just expressed an interest in buying the complete hardcover collection.

    No horses. I prefer to ride a sled down steep hills covered with snow, accompanied by my tiger.


    Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhh...

    Well those who ripped all the pics were the clever ones (I say that because I like calling myself clever), it turns out a cease and desist has happened.

    click

    Which'll explain why if you click on the link on my first post it'll just go to the main page :(

    Heh, what he said. :)

    Now can someone please zip them all up for me so I can save them locally before he gets his cease & desist?

    No. :)

    Haven't got time to be honest. I'd first need to find the right software, then install it, yadda yadda. Can't see me getting around to that for a couple of days.
