    Finally got round to ftping these somewhere public, so thought I'd
    share them with you. Not very good, and all full size, but here we go:

    Ooh look, another replica

    And I can't get these 4 to play from the page, but if you can download
    them they may be OK.

    I get the same 403 error as Cane - Forbidden.
    Real Player works for me.

    I get a 404 for these anyway.

    Quicktime will play them.
    I don't understand what's going on. FTP shows they're there, but the
    web server gives a 404. The raw files play fine I open them via FTP,
    just the http: doesn't seem to like them.

    Weird. I've renamed them to .txt and they're perfectly visible - must
    be something funny on the server I'm using. Anyway, they open fine in
    Windows Media Player now.

    Directory permissions set OK?
    Then I see that just renaming them made them visible - except they show
    in RealPlayer as TEXT!

    Rename them? But they're AVI files now, not WMV. That was a previous
    failed attempt to compress them to make them visible.

    Curiouser and curiouser!

    Fine now, as long as downloaded first (as avi). Get displayed as text if
    opened directly by RealPlayer (Hence my previous message).

    Still can't see the still images though (403 error).

    Yep. Renamed them back to wmv. WMP questioned them but played them
    fine.

    That's cos these ones are actually avi.
    Mine plays them straight from the .txt links.

    Have you got some kind of no-linking enabled?

    Only I can't click on the links in Google Groups as it
    gives me 403 Permission Denied each time, but if I copy
    and paste the links they work fine.

    **** nose. Just some free web space - no idea what they've done with
    it.
    Weird.

    It may be that it's a site policy to stop direct linking
    (and thus hot-linking) to images, or maybe just links that
    come from Google. Whatever, I'm not that interested in
    looking at pics of Champ.
