Yeah I mostly use AminetRadio for streaming and searching for Shoutcast radio stations on the Amiga. http://amigazeux.net/anr/

People at work are always impressed that you can save the streams to MP3 in realtime. Something I don't think even WinAmp lets you do.

I switched back to 1.x from 2.x a while ago too. 2.x seemed to have much slower write speeds to disk than 1.x did.

Had never seen it before. Looks like Settlers. Loved that game. Any games ported to Amiga is a good thing me thinks.

Alien Nations for MOS

Titan ported it to MOS, but i doubt that there will be an AmigaOS4"

the mos port has never released! dunno if they even start the port or just launching a webiste for it...

ok,because i read in that mag that they had it in their "pipeline". Was to be released q4 of 2000 if i'm remembering right....

This icon problem worth being mentionned to Andy because creating a correct system default icon is almost equally simple to code than creating a fixed one

Gah! A last minute bug has shown up.

It's going to be delayed until resolved - sorry!

Cheers,
Bean.

I don't know for other, but personnaly I'm copying the contents of the readme in the appropriate field at upload time.
I guess that if uploader did not bother to write a description neither did he to write a readme inside the archive...

About the archive content however I agree : would be usefull.

@Haymiga

Thank you did not work either. However strange that you can use it via usb !?!

@kvasir

Thank you for your answer, however as I said I don't have any PC so Samba is not a solution.

A library with downloadable themes would be nice.

I'm thinking of categories such as icon packages, wallpapers,
skins for TuneNet, FryingPan and other proggies that allow them.

I know that there are quite a few websites that offer them already
KDE-Look comes to mind, but little of them are useable right away with Amiga.

Hmmm, maybe OS4Depot would be the better place, though

Idea any good?

@Jack

Of course, one can always go Shoutcast radio stations, as KISS as you like

Although pandora is nice, it isn't fun on old linux box with 256MB of ram... I prefer KISS (keep it simple stupid) principle. Gimme these playlist files... Luckily very little use mp4 format, otherwise my A1200 would say bye-bye to Internet radio

It is going to be a confession-like post, a long one and hopefully not enturely dull.

Amiga scene is very singular speaking marketing-wise. In days of Commodore the marketing of Amiga was scarse and announcement timings were weird. Then (after Commodore banckrupted) appeared several, leading then, companies which seemed to do a good business (I was offline these days and raided through bookshops in my town for AmigaFormat to see what's going on and all the hardware/software buying decicions were based on that info and info looked good ). Not having Amiga-related dealer in my country wasn't fun, but there existed hardware options, some were better (phase5) some were definitely wrong decisions in long term (Ateo products). The hardware existed. Now there's one hell of a vacuum. Everything went wrong when Phase5 died. There were some promising projects that time with nice colored posters. I remeber myself being excited by one called AmiJoe. I contacted them to get some info and the feeling was that an a couple of weeks they would start the production, at least that their answer clearly radiated. Then there was Escena which went into NG Amiga project which became A1 (notice, all during that vacuum period) along with other part of NG Amiga project which is now called Genesi/BPlan. As an owner of A1200 I was naturally into the Escena part of the project and ocassionally found myself in AmigaOne camp when the first vacuum era ended. If I was into standalone-board part of NG Amiga I would have wound up in Morphos camp. Although the very curved path I'm happy that I ended up with AOS4. Now there's vacuum again and the level of anxiety I experince now as an owner of dead A1 is in no way to be compared with the patience before the release of AmigaOne and . Eyetech leftAmiga business. I was unlucky then to fry my A1 CPU. Too many hopes followed, things seemed to be steering even when no anouncements on future hardware were made, it was like being pulled by the nose from time to time. On the other hand a complete lack of info would cause me to end the AmigaOne experience about half a year ago. Instead of this I'm now hanging on every bit of info and trying to refrain myself from spitting sarcasm and ranting in the forums...

As my old man says once in a while: "it's a stick with two ends". Announcement keep the heat in the campfire. On the other hand too long waiting times drive people mad. And being Amigan requires being at ( least partly) irrational, correct me if I'm wrong.
And that's isn't so bad after all.

Happy Chistmas and holidays to every one and lets the new year be full of A1 hardware (software will follow),
Jack

@Outcast

Going "the other route" is the salt of life, Outcast

Besides, who would want a paint program that can do EVERYTHING???

It's like being on "some other platform"...

Hi Antique,

help me resizing a picture

FxPaint2 is my favorite tool!

edit

Ahh, 'Mason Icons' are coming I bet!
OK, I can wait.

Hi,
The DHTML editor pops to it' own screen and Reply message i'm replying to disappears. I use cancel a lot now. How am I suppose to reply to a message?

@ssolie

To be honest, i believe everything first when it comes to announcement
in the Amiga market whatsoever...may it be hardware, software, freeware,
beautiful girls in red and white checked bikinis offering me drinks on
white peebled beaches...
leaving aside me dreams i normally cannot check the truth of these
announcements, so i'm bound to stay and see what comes out of it...

besides, the waiting time is the by far most best time, the anticipation
for a new product, it's like christmas the whole year

...and pushing the devs doesn't lead to anything, it only produces stress
and stress kills imagination

Let's hope for a calm and peaceful christmas this year, that's all i wish
for...everything else positive, whatever it may be, will be a wonderful
surprise and considered a present

Let's share a wonderful christmas, shall we?
