Ok folks. Creating a simple gallery for new main website here. I do have some vintage images of classic start-up screens (C64, Vic20, Spectravide) and books such as Tim Hartnelss Giant Book of Spectrum Games (I do actually have original british version of it Tongue ) but i would like to get more to add there for a start.

So, screenshots of classic dialects, computers, software covers, magazine articles, codes, games, persons... are very very welcomed Smiley Naturally with some sort of permission.

[edit]
Some examples http://www.basicprogramming.org/temp_gallery/

These are murky waters. Screenshots are fine (as long as copyrights are observed) but other items are much less so.

For example: www.worldofspectrum.org has a massive, legal archive of ZX Spectrum software and emulators for download. One person started a site copying World Of Spectrum and caused a massive argument resulting in several publishers asking for their software to be removed from the archive for copyright reasons even though those people/companies involved have done nothing with material they own. Also hosting anything that may have any chance of being copyrighted puts us in a very shaky situation.

Hi,

I have Sinclair at home, sadly I could not fight against pressures to "throw that terrible old eye damaging TV to recycle bin", and I did not tried to connect it to the new TV.

But if you are interested in photos of Sinclair ZX itself, I can do some during the weekend.


Let me know,
Petr
