Many thanks!kodak80 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 15, 2021 8:35 amNo, I found this issue somewhere on the Internet, can't remember where though. I do have this issue somewhere in the post from the UK and if it arrives, I will scan and update the site with the one I scan.TheNameOfTheGame wrote: ↑Mon Nov 15, 2021 1:40 am Did you scan issue #35? It seems to be 2 page full scan instead of single pages so it is a bit hard to read.
For now I am extracting the pages from the PDF and will re-format the current issue to the same format as the ones I am scanning and sharing.
EDIT: re-formatted issue 35 has now been uploaded and linked on my site.

Re: ST Action magazines
Hi Kodak80! Any interest in adding .jpg versions of your files, along with PDF?
Can I also suggest, you link each disk/disk set to the relevant instructions page.
It's not something I've seen anyone else do, but, it's really useful to have them at hand.
And possibly some overall notes? ie any entry in the list marked [Compressed] will need a blank disk image to decompress to, or say, disk 40: Boot with a blank disk to play the four shareware games.

Re: ST Action magazines
I will stick with PDF issues as I am focusing on getting them added to my site and adding JPEGs would mean a restructure of the page and content.
Issue 12 PDF is now on my site and all coverdisks are now downloadable.

Re: ST Action magazines
Excellent! Thanks 
I'm looking forward to issue 43; The first ST only magazine I ever bought!
(I used to get New Atari User, which had some ST stuff in it. That was also an *excellent* magazine)

Re: ST Action magazines
The £1.50 price ticket on the front brought back memories. You can't buy a decent mag these days for less than £5.

Re: ST Action magazines
Thanks again!
Still waiting to International mail service to open back up from USA to Australia to send the magazines we talked about. I thought it would be opened back up by now.
