A bit of frustration
EDIT: AUGH, I almost wish I'd never made this post. I think I hurt some good people, and I wasn't even thinking of them.
Now that it looks as though the Exchange is down, I have only two options: to pull pictures one by one into a Powerpoint, or to direct people to the pages archived by the magnificent hooptytrib. I hope it doesn't cause him problems, ( Read more... )

This.
I am in the same boat albeit with less chapters and no one seemingly grabbed mine before the exchange went down.
Let's see when the exchange went down the first time... No one told me. And at that time we had already converted to slideshare not because the exchange was down but because no one could upload to it. Which was over two years ago. Unless they are talking about then in which case I had several other things going down. Including Otakon.
So yeah, stop making me feel like shit for not pulling my stories at the time. Oh, and I still can't figure out slidefy. Jo's tutorial does not help me at all. So for me, I have to reassemble the story one slide at a time using the .xml to do so - which I do have. And you know what, I have other things to worry about. And my asylum is gone gone unless the exchange comes back.
But yeah, everyone needs to understand not all of us managed to grab things when they went down. And the rubbing salt in the wound makes it more likely I am going to just say "Fuck it all" and go back to fanfic.

What really frustrated me was that a week before the Exchange went down this time, I had just been reading stuff a week ago, if not less. So I truly was stunned. I think it caught it all offguard. I'm sure we would have started Project Archive the Crap Out of Everything if we'd known
