I have a download of a 52+ MB version Julie Velor rar file mentioned in this exchange at AURG on one of my laptops. The Wayback Machine version linked at The Bright Empire no longer works:

web.archive.org/web/20080216121115/http:....infinitybridge.com/

I have no idea what the robots.txt is, or what it has to do with the problem.

I also have no idea whether anyone here is still in touch with AK, although Geekseven at here at SWM may, since there have been some very occasional posts to a stub address by both him and AK.

Would be great to have the site back...

I understand this is replying to a fairly old thread so I
apologize in advance, but does anyone have this archive file
handy? I did try to use the wayback machine but some of the
links/stories were not mirrored. I also searched online and
had no luck finding an alternative mirror.



Thanks,

Neb

I tried to download from allaccess but no luck, the like returns a "Not Found" page for me. Still, a couple of years ago I had been able to track down AK, but I didn't contact him.

Looks as if you've solved the link problem, 7bf. Thanks a lot. But it would still be best if the site could be resurrected.

IF and I do mean IF I could get agreement from the people needed, I could host the site as a sub section of the library, it would take a lot of work but it could be done.

My download has as far as i can tell the whole site in terms of the text files, i would need to check my other back-ups to see if i can find any of the images.

Turns out the sublinks to that Archive link don't work. Back to the drawing board....

Thanks to Tarot Barnes, I have a workaround. The main link given by 7bf is:

web.archive.org/web/20040208110845/http:...rls.org/stories.html

If I click on a story chapter sublink, I get the link in the URL box, but a screen message that the story hasn't been archived:

But the URL link includes "stories.html." as well as the chapter link html. If I delete the former, I get a live link to the story, viz:

web.archive.org/web/20040208110845/http:...s.org/Julie/j01.html

Tarot sent a sample showing Chapter 19 of Leysen. I could see it included the chapter html, but didn't notice at first that it was missing the home page html. He later told me that the story links worked fine for him, and didn't repeat the home page html in the first place. Maybe it's some sort of browser problem. Either way, you can presumably access all the stories now.

The zip file didn't work for me.

Does anyone have a copy of the picture Topgun from the 4th chapter of the Superior Girl? I have been looking forever for it. It is basically a pic of a girl sitting on the front of a jet plan while it is flying in the air.

OK, i'll extract the zip file and create a very basic web site with all the stories there.

Expect it done this weekend.

The text in the zip was fine, but all the images were missing.

I think I do, but it's very low resolution since it's from an MHT of the original story.

I don't know if it can be of any help but since websites disappear as quick as they appear, about a year ago I made a backup of all the stories I could find in that moment.

aurorarchive.altervista.org/?path=Aurora%20Universe

Stories from a single website are collected in folders at the end of the list.

You're welcome guys.
Actually, thanks to the writers of those awesome stories.
I also fixed some file names that were causing troubles (& and ' are not accepted).

There is, I have to upload the whole bunch (~600MB) on some file hosting site.
It's not a problem and I can do it if you want, but mind that reading directly from the archive is better because most stories are in HTML format with HTML links to their pictures. If you want to read those stories on a device different than a home computer (like an iPad), the way the archive is organized allows you to see the pictures as intended which wouldn't be possible otherwise. Of course if you want to read them on your computer, there won't be any difference.

Well the archive should work, even if some users have to do the following:

1. Click the main archive link:

web.archive.org/web/20040208110845/http:...ls.org/stories.html/

Then click a story/chapter link. But on my computer I get a message saying the page isn't archived:

ttp://web.archive.org/web/20040208110845/http://julievelor.ubergirls.org/stories.html/Julie/j01.html

Deletonh the redundtant "stories.html" in the URL box solves the problem:

web.archive.org/web/20040225212951/http:...s.org/Julie/j01.html

The long-term solution would be for AK himself to bring back the site/

Both archives seem solid but, as is often the case, the picture are missing. I know that the stories work without them, but I consider them a pretty integral part of AK's style.

BTW, I checked my HD and I have a full copy in .mht of Superior Girl, World's Mightiest Girl and at least one more story, if anyone is interested send me a line.

Does anybody here have any contact with AK? I think Geekseven has posted some stories related to his.

There was some inspiration back-and-forth, but I never had any direct contact with AK or his site.
