Where are the links ?

[Squinty]

I was waiting for a reply from the original AGF poster ...but I'll put them up.

I will take these files and compact them all into one PDF file and place them into the Downloads section as soon as i can.

Cheers for the link attachment Squinty.

Ok i`ve added the first 1982 to 1990 to our downloads section and i will add the other information that Squinty has uploaded as links to our forum to make them more permanent without needing any outside links to view content,

I will also at a later date credit the upload to Squinty for adding content to this site.

There's nearly 300 images,
#1 covers the pre-rapid gas-rams
#2 inception of the Rapid 7
#3 mk2 and variants.

There's a lot to scroll through in one file

I bought a Zephyr 77k £399 and shook my head at the Rapid for £550 a few years later

what a fantastic read .. thank you very much ..

I remember the launch of the rapid 7 and was the item of my dreams and the item of my father's nightmare .. begged for one couldn't afford it ..settled for a webly mk3 .. hated it and loved it at the same time ..

funny thing is I stil have that webly haven't shot it in 15 20 year


always promised myself a rapid


now own 2 on ticket and a third sub 12 ..and wouldn't dream of changing


have warned my wife I will be buried with mine ..so get me a large coffin ⚰️

All file`s listed here can now be downloaded in our new downloads section, thankyou to Squinty for providing these link`s to us so we can now add them as a permanent file download on our site,

I have a nostalgic feeling everytime I open the cabinet.. feel like I back in the shop being handed the mk1 for the first time every time

Have to say I just tried to download part 3 & I've got a lot of random pages from magazine articles with nothing seeming to be in order,
It's also displaying on it's side & when I try to rotate the page it's asking for money ?

Being a total tech luddite, I'm now very confused.

No idea, I just clicked on the link and the album displays in the same order as it was upload to imgur.
Didn't log in, no adverts, no request for money only an age declaration on pt3.

First three images  should be an SLR98  article from July 2000 through to the last  'Made To Measure' of june 2012

However the PDF in downloads is out of sequence.
Adobe is something that whilst apparently simple to use has frustrated me by doing its own damned thing.

Again I have no idea, I downloaded and saved each one in order and uploaded to imgure en-bloc- where they  display correctly.
Must admit that I never made any provision for them to be downloaded from the host....wouldnt know how.

[Squinty]

In fact all three albums in the downloads section are mixed up.

its probably because each image has a random id assigned by Imgur, the OS automatically puts those in order by name; alphabetically and numerically, size, date/time of creation.
When I saved each image in sequence to my folder they  auto-arranged by download time- and the upload followed suit.

I`ve just tested the downloads on our download section and they seem fine to me and not asking for any money what so ever, but if your on about the page`s provided by squinty on the other site well i have no idea as to why that would be happening all i did was rip the pages & place them in a compacted version of pdf and upload them to our downloads section as listed in that section on our site.

Perhaps an album, multiple images instead of the single PDF document ?
