Again, thanks Prime for doing this for us and all our downloaders here.

Hi,

Minor stuff again: the fixed Ibis 5 is now ok, but the 'info sheet' appears where the fc should be
Under 'latest uploads' there are several monster fc scans instead of the usual thumbnails (Blu Beetle 4 and lotsa Spy Hunters)

Hi Len,
yes we saw those giant covers and can't figure out why they happen.  If you see a pattern, please let me know.

Sorry, gang, but it's another uppercase/lowercase Preview problem, this time with the fixed Exciting 49.
(the Preview function is what I'd call a 'strict-sorting' function... All lower case letters follow All upper case ones)
So... because the 2 versions of the cover are named ' aExciting 49 fc... ', and the page scans are a mixed bag of upper & lower case, the result is that in Preview, the coverscans appear somewhere in the middle of the issue (and Commando Cubs pg 1 shows up in place of the cover-thumb).

I just wanted to throw into this string:

Thank you folks for taking the time to make sure the old files are fixed to work with the preview function.  I finally got my hands on an iPad this last weekend, and it turns out that the preview function works well on the iPad.  The result (thanks to your efforts) is that now I could see shelling out the money to buy a tablet which could access the entire library of DCM from my easy chair, bed, or porch WITHOUT ANY SPECIALTY SOFTWARE OR DISK SIZE RESTRICTIONS!

All of Golden Age Goodness on the cloud....how cool is that?

Thanks Len.  I think you mean Thrilling 49 though.
I checked Exciting49 and found I had an extra story not on the DCM version so I updated that and fixed the page order problem to Thrilling as well.

If anyone wants to correct and upload fixes for things like page order problems please feel free - but if you do please also include " -fixed' in the upload name and include the usual message in the description about it being a correction and people don't need to download it again if they already have it.

Any help on this massive project is welcome!
