It's because of the Ebay CD's FFURG took them down, actually. People were selling them, either via CD or alone, rather than sharing freely. Became a real hassle.
right! thanks for the response btw! i did read the very same thing on the ffurg forum. you can still read stuff even if you arent registered. i cant find them anywhere and i was hoping someone could share but it seems like that isnt going so well! ya, the few ruin it for the many. its kinda the wrong way to look at things but all i can do is ask around and hope someone can share those or something.
i did buy one of those cds but the quality is in 96 dpi and the resolution is 574 x 800..the handful of high quality ones i found on google are 1000 x2000 or so with a 300 dpi,but those are not even the ones i want

the disc will have to do it seems and maybe it wont look so bad. at least i have something but id rather have the good crispy ones

ah well. i did what i could so far, so thats all i can do really atm!
thanks man!
