I urgently need help with 2 items for Burbank ...

I need someone who is going to Burbank Con to lend me a CD with the 1812 overture by Tschaikovsky. I did order one, but the frelling thing is coming by slow camel train http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/26/26_16_2.gif and may not get to me before I fly out on Thursday.
I need someone who is graphicly minded to please enlarge a banner to fit a full screen - it is for the Frelly Awards presentation ... here is the original graphic created by abbadon (oh where is the dear man when I need him?) :shrug:

I need to be able to save it onto a CD or DVD - now if we could put the graphics and the music together it would be excellent but I'll settle for them individually at this stage.

I can't help you with that cd, but I did manage to resize the banner to a width of 1024 pixels. I hope that's sufficient. You can get it here (http://www.ombergen.nl/FRELL-BAN2b.gif).

Selena, I'll look on Real Player and see if I can download that song for you onto a CD.

They have the 1812 overture by Tchaikovsky on Real Player for .99

If you want it, just let me know. I can wait until the last minute to do it for you just in case your CD comes in the mail before you leave.

I searched with Lycos (http://music.lycos.com/default.asp?QT=S&QW=1812&x=0&y=0) and found some hits for 1812. I don't know the legal issues for downloading it (is it public domain?), but you did buy it...so I don't think it hurts.

There is something about a time limit for the public domain thing.

But because that song is performed by current musicians, the public domain issue isnt with the song, but on its performance. Or something like that. :)

Baseline - thanks for the effort - what I needed was for it to take up a whole page so the color would fill the screen and we wanted to maintain the animation ... that's why I didn't tackle it.

LiLO I can't save on my CD it's just a read only :shrug: If you can download it I will pay you for the download and the CD at the Con. :hug: thanks guys.

Let me check with UTChick, cause she mentioned something in the other thread about possibly having the CD already.

And its only $1, you dont have to pay me back. :D
