Default Intent to Flood - NASA Project Mercury

This weekend I intend on posting 334 images (324 MB) of NASA's Mercury

I intend on utilizing the RAR and PAR method. While some may prefer
JPG, I have chosen not to post JPGs. As some files are very large
untilizing RAR & PARs allow the reciever to repair any fragment files.


OTOH, if you post JPGs, if one is bad, only ONE is lost, instead of a
whole (or partial) pack...

And I would add that I have downloaded thousands of jpgs and
have never ever gotten a 'bad' one.
I'd like to see the flood in native JPG also.

Why not post them to your own hard drive - you are the one who seems to want
them all... I am one of many who does not appreciate your flood here.

There will be 19 RAR files and 13 PAR (40%) PAR files for a total size
of 380 MB

Enjoy

Why not post in jpg. You would have a lot less gripe about the rar
files. I also noticed a lot of bad filesin rar and having to repost
them.
