I have 4 PMs from Animal too, but they are from February 2005, so it's been almost two years. To copy them into Word or something for me just wouldn't be the same. They are short PMs as well, all the longer ones he sent me were at the Oasis and I deleted them before I knew he was dying. :( So I dunno, I think I'm just going to not copy and let it go. These things remain in my mind anyway. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Good luck Dan with the software changeover, am excited to see it. [img]smile.gif[/img]

You could always use your newfound skill with print screen to save them. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Can't you save the whole page as an offline HTML page? If you save the pics and all, it will come up just as you see it now in years to come. Save enough pages and you can actually click the PM's and it will open like the regular link would, since you downloaded the linked page.

Looks like it's time to copy that year long (and counting) game of chess i have going with Cerebro D. Thanks for the heads up, Z. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yep, Everything else will import fine.

ALL posts/polls will import, as will accounts. BUT, your password will be reset to something random like "DF4882F" each being random for each user, and will do a mass email out to each member, then you can log in and change it to your password you want.

*** Make SURE your email address is 100% correct, and working, or you won't get an email.

(I'm sure I'll get loads of bounce backs, and emails yelling spammer and such.. yey! [img]smile.gif[/img] )

I just thought I'll bump this for a reminder.

And by the way, you can back them up easily and nicely simply by saving the html page. I used Firefox and it worked for me. The page appears just like it does normally.

Good thing that I don't get any PMs. I only got one from Larry about my sig size... :D

Make sure you back that up :D
