Dear heart,
You are my guinea pig. I have just signed up for megaupload and am having a devil of time trying to figure out how to send to multiple people. I am trying the only way I know. hopefully you will soon have an email with a download on it, no need to download, it was yours orig. Please let me know if you receive it and if not please tell me how you send to multiple recepients (like the LJ folk)

[eldritchhobbit.livejournal.com]

Hi there! *hugs* I haven't received the email yet, but I'll let you know when/if I do. The way I usually do it is send the upload notice to myself. Then, when I get the URL for the download from that email, I paste it into my post for others to use. It's a trick I picked up from others, but it's worked well so far.

Great! Thanks for the tip. It seems to actually work. I tried the preview, on LJ and it seemed like it was going to work. This is great.

*laughs* I just downloaded that Star Wars - Moosebutter song yesterday. I can't quit giggling over it.

And I'm surprised at how many of the Hugo award winners I've read this year. Thanks for posting the list.

[eldritchhobbit.livejournal.com]

That Han Solo song you just posted is a hoot! And Moosebutter - the "I couldn't care less what you smell" gets me every time. LOL!

You're most welcome re: the Hugos. They picked some real winners to be... um, winners *g*... this year. I was pleased to see the list.

Thank you sweet pea. I appreciate it right now. This birthday has been... well let's just say it has been interesting.

*hugs*

*huge, huge hugs* I hope things get less interesting and more joyful soon!

Thanks for posting all of that........

I just wanted to say that I really, really loved "V" the graphic novel and the movie. Great concept:)
