So I'm not sure where these are supposed to go, so I'll slap it here.

I was downloading the LQ pictures, and got to about 1500, then kept getting error.

Now I know that I am connected to the internet. I tried copying the url of pic and gave me error too. Either the site is (temporarily) down or some other things is happening

Edit: I edited the topic name if someone else is looking to solve same problem as I solved it.

Ok I fixed it for myself.

I opened the "card-pictures.txt" with OpenOffice writer (MS word will do too) and used the replace command for "mi.w" to be replaced with "www.w"

Just "mi" won't do it cos there are plenty of places where it is, but putting that ".w" to the end will guarantee that it looks for the

http://"mi.w"izards.com part and not the card names

there we re total of 183 (I think) lines replaced

Cool, I guess we'll apply the same fix to our card-pictures.txt :)
