[taopa] downloading websites (fwd)

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

Note to self.  replace direct links to contest results with buttons next 
year to keep freeloaders from sucking up entire website.  Grr.

It is a very good thing I replaced the "Change Size" schema I originally
had with the current buttons, because the old version would have made the
auto-download programs utterly loop back on itself as the site generated 
new URLs.

If you're like me, with a dial-up connection, looking
at aquarium sites can be a chore.

I have found website downloaders to be pretty useful. 
A program will download an entire site onto your
harddrive, while you do useful things (like sleep).  I
downloaded one at http://www.tucows.com

In fact, I downloaded the AGA contest site that way. 
Now I flip through all the pics in no time.  The one I
downloaded is called WinHTTrack.  I'm sure others will
do the job also.
