Help needed, where should I post this

Postby Thoughtstealer » Aug 24th, '15, 02:54



Hi everyone, I am new here so obviously don't have access to the Mentalism topics. I have some routines I wrote for a magazine a while ago. I would love me to post them here so that anyone who wants them can download them. Where should I post them. Thanks in advance for your help.

You are probably better off uploading the pdfs to a hosting service and posting links.
You can probably password protect them and either pm interested puddle the password or put it up here so people can access them.
It depends how much you want to protect them really!

The version of phpBB used for TM doesn't allow upload of PDF files, sorry.

One would think a mentalist would know all this.

Can you suggest a good hosting service ?

You could just use Dropbox. I'm not sure if that allows passwording, though. Google Drive and One Drive probably work too.

Just right-click on the item in your Dropbox and select "Share Dropbox link". That puts a URL onto your clipboard which you can paste into an E-mail, PM, or, presumably, here. I'm not sure it's a good idea to post the link publicly, so I'd suggest you take advice from the Mods.

Dropbox won't let me password protect the files, so I think the easiest way is for anyone interested in the routines to PM me their email. Then I can send the link to my dropbox. That way the only people that will get the link will be those who requested it.

Thank you for the link, a couple of nice routines, I can see myself using the second one particularly.
Don't want to expose anything so I won't say more. :D

I hope all those that requested them have received them. A few didn't supply their email, don't forget, I need your email to send you the link. I will upload some more of my routines to dropbox in the near future.
I will also make them available to members here.

Agreed! I was partial to the third one, though.

Thank you, Thoughtstealer. 8)
