DST Insider - December Edition

[Shannon]

Due to the large size of the newsletter and the fact that we have over 3100 users, we can't host this issue on our own server so we're using an independent upload service. The link that you were given in the original email no longer works. The link in this post does work.

DST Insider - December Edition! (http://www.sendspace.com/file/8bgfza)

[mshawnee1]

Just got the email but I get an error message when I click on the link. Is there any other way I can dl the newsletter?

[Capmom]

Also getting the error message, know it's a busy times!

Thanks DST Newsletter Team!

[stevenstwins]

The zip in the email wont work;) Shannon will post here with YSI links soon:)

[Betty Jo]

I'm getting an error message too. Is it a matter of waiting and trying again at a later time?

[Betty Jo]

The zip in the email wont work;) Shannon will post here with YSI links soon:)

Thank You.. Can't wait to read it :)

[chris]

What a terrific holiday issue!! I think it just might be the thing I need to put me in the holiday spirit. I need something to get me going to do some shopping. A great magazine/newsletter!

[Qqui]

I have tried several times and there is a message that say's...
" Error....The download limit has been reached for this file."
Please advice
Thanks

[sal4gal]

Thank You! I can't wait for time to sit down and read this!

[Anita Richards]

thanks Shannon - just downloading now and can hardly wait :D

[amykrh]

I want to say thank you, I really do. However, this is dreadful for dialup users. It's going to take 5 hours to download.

:eek

[bethwillis]

Thanks! Downloading from YSI right now, it was literally taking like an hour earlier for me to download from the e-mail and then it ended up freezing.

[Jana1506]

Link has reached download limit. :(

Could you renew please?

Edit: Duh me! Got it now. Thanks!

[Joyce]

Thanks to everyone!

[spunknsarcasm]

bummer i cant download either, maxed out!:duh

[spunknsarcasm]

scratch that last post I got it Duh @ ME

[Candie]

I want to say TY for this great share...I was able to get the goodies from your second link. TY so much.
hugs:clap

[ljcrochet]

Thank you so much. I'm downloading it right now.

I was wondering if you thought of putting it on www.gigasize.com (http://www.gigasize.com)
Files expire after 45 or 90 days of inactive not download number.

[Marcie Reckinger]

Thanks! I'm downloading it now! Have a great evening! :)

[sweetheaven]

I am downloading it right now. Thank you very much
cant wait to read it

[~Julie~]

d/l limit reached on both links

[Alicia25]

I must have missed it cause it says its hit the max. :(

[kimlizzy]

Yousendit has limited downloads. If you upload it to www.4shared.com (http://www.4shared.com) it will stay active until nobody has downloaded it for 30 days or until you remove the file. That way every one will be able to get it without any problem.

[scrappy-mom]

I am unable to download the newsletter...says it has reached the max. I also tried the alternative one and it says it has reached it's max too.

[Wnderlnd]

I also go the maximum reached error. Pretty please renew it...thank ya much!
:)

[Lanne]

I will have to wait for a new link too. Shannon (and co.) Love all your hard work and what it means for people in the industry. I am wondering if it would be worthwhile sending a copy out to all of the advertisers (or a seperate link). It would be great to see the ads early on and not wait until links are available etc :) It might also be a nice customer service approach. :) Thanks again for all of your hard work! Can't wait to read this issue!

[eyelet4u2]

It said it had reached the max so I couldn't get it either.

[DiScTalkRadio/deann]

Ok, it's up. Have at it.:D

is another one coming....or maybe another 200 divided into 3k...'cause isn't that what your going to need to get it out to the total bases?

can't wait to see it...

xoxo,d

[Jeannie Papai Designs]

yep i'm left in the dark again too. i havent gotten ityet.

[sandyd]

reached it's max again

Sandy

[Tracey Monette (formerly mybetrside)]

Well gosh darn, I can't get to the newsletter either. All I get are expired links. :(
But, I can't wait to see it!!!
Looking for more links.

[marshak69]

I can't get the link either---both are maxed out.

[dlaratonae]

:( I didnt' get it either. limit is maxed out

[Nettio]

Oh ladies, I'm so sorry you're having to wait! This issue has been a bit crazy. :lol But I'm sure Shannon is working on it!

And Lanne, thank you for your suggestion, I'll make sure it gets seen in the newsletter forum. :agree

[goofeejules]

WOW amazed that both links are used up already.

[Shannon]

I'm uploading again now. Trying out gigasize.com :agree

[PurdueLiz]

Neither is working for me either.

[Janet]

:( Rats! Both links are used up. Please give us more!

[JeanneLee]

Yep, I am unable to download either...I will be patient though! :)

[femmgrangwav]

It told me it's reach it's 200 limit...

[brandiwest]

WOW!!! This newsletter must really be worth the wait!!! I can't wait!!! LOL

[splishlady2002]

bad thing about it being in pdf format is that you dont have any hyperlinks to click to visit others pages

[Qqui]

Hi

I went to giga.com.....register and then what should I do now......?
Thanks for all the trouble that you are going thru.
Qqui

[Shannon]

bad thing about it being in pdf format is that you dont have any hyperlinks to click to visit others pages

:think I'm not sure what you mean. You can click on links in the newsletter that will take you to other websites.

[Shannon]

The original post has been edited with a fresh link.

[brandiwest]

Yoo Hoo!!! Thanks Shannon!! I not wait until it is downloaded to see this fabulous "newsletter"!!!

[Amy]

bad thing about it being in pdf format is that you dont have any hyperlinks to click to visit others pages

that doesn't have to do necessarily with "pdf" persay (the format); it's just how it was put together typically... you will find many pdf documents are linking to other sites within it :)

Sometimes what does happen though - is a) you might need the newest version of Acrobat reader and b) make sure your internet security isn't blocking the downloads from that program or popup windows :)

[just terra]

When you click the gigasize link, it will take you to a direct download page - you just have to search for the exact link in with all the ads!!

it is about 1/3 of the way down the page - right underneath a bright green bar that says - download too slow?

you shouldn't have to sign up for an account or do anything special - just type in a verify code right next to the download link.

Can't wait for everyone to get it!

and Splish - please let us know which links you believe are not working? We do work extra hard each month to check, double check, and re-check again that all our hyperlinks are in working order. Not EVERY single thing in there is hyperlinked, but the ones that are should be in good working order according the latest info we have!

Hope you all enjoy!

[meadow92]

Thank you for the new link Shannon! You rock!!

[~Julie~]

thank you Shannon

[Qqui]

I must be doing something wrong. I type the letters hit verify and nothing happens. The letters desapears but no download. Does it's make a difference if I'm using a MAC.
Thanks again
Qqui

[Alice Naylor (Okblues Designs)]

Thank you Shannon!

[splishlady2002]

it says to click on the ads to visit their shop---not one of them worked...also the link in your 'from the desk of' didn't work....btw i took programming so i know what hypertext is thanks...and also i have adobereader 7 all updates are current because it is done automatically...i have my firewall off and low setting for internet connection

[Qqui]

I did it !! I did it !!Thanks ...It looks beautifull....now to read and enjoy.

Thanks

Qqui

[wyowomanKristin]

well splishlady, the ads links are working for me, so there must be a setting you are overlooking. how about the trust manager within acrobat reader itself?

[Rona]

Holy smokes! 63 MB?!?!? I cannot wait!!!! :D

[splishlady2002]

thanks kristin i had to change a setting in there to always allow

[wyowomanKristin]

yay! i love it when the computers can't beat us! bwahaha!

[Janet]

It's gorgeous! :clap Thanks so much!

[JSF]

Haven't been able to download from Gigasize - each time I click the link they give it just takes me back to the same page. I will try later as it may be overloaded at present.

[dynalady2000]

I can't get it to work. I put in the 3 letter code and hit verify and then just nothing. Am I doing something wrong?

[Shannon]

For those who are having problems with gigawhatsit (:lol why can't I remember the name of it?), please check your PM box. :agree

[penelope]

No problems here Shannon! It's at 62% and I'm getting antsy to read it, can't wait!!! It sounds like a great newsletter, loved last months so I"m sure I'll love this one!

[susieq2u]

Woo - looks like a whopper - Im d/l fine now - but Im on the south side of the world and the north is dreaming! Cant wait to read it!

[andrianmichael]

[katja]

Downloading. Thank you so much, can't wait to see treasures inside the zip file :)

[scrappingdragon]

[beckygtx]

So far it is downloading fine! Can't wait to read! :lol

[Deena]

Man im so jealous!! I cant download it right now... Due to the ice storm we have no power, its been out since Thursday evening :(

Im at my mom's...Im thinking i might have to bring my wireless router over so i can connect with my laptop LOL

[Laurie9585]

I just tried and every time I type a verification code it just keeps asking me to retype another one :(. I can't wait to see the newsletter. Sounds like it's a good one! :)

If anyone has any ideas as to what I might need to do...that would be great! TIA!

[Microferk ~ Miki Ferkul]

Got it last night on the first try, and just read it cover to cover- OUTSTANDING job everyone!
Thanks Shannon!

[shayna]

I still can't get the download :(

When I click on the link it takes me to the same page but won't let me download the newsletter, Shannon. Do you have any suggestions????

hugs,
Shayna

[lostnana]

Thank you for new link. I was just coming to find out if there was a problem with the email link *giggles* :-)

[Karen Bowers]

thanks for one great newsletter/ezine, everyone! this is jampacked full of great articles! a great effort!

[Shannon]

For those who posted that they were having trouble, check your PM box. :agree

[alb52]

downloading now - can't wait to read it!!!!!

[digiscrapchick]

I'm having a prob downloading also....hmmmm :think

[Wnderlnd]

YEA! Happy day...it's downloading now...many thanks!

i entered the verify code and then it looked like it wanted me to do it again, but then I saw a button to download...it's a little difficult to see with everyhting else around it..what happens when you enter the verify code more than once? Maybe it will eventually let you DL. Hmm....off to read...

[Shannon]

I'm having a prob downloading also....hmmmm :think

Check your PM box :agree

[pokeygirl5]

I am not able to type in the text box :(

[Shannon]

Check your PMs :agree

[hluebner]

Unable to access the newsletter, too.

[christy]

So sorry, but I've tried the download three times and it times out and is incomplete every time (I'm on a fast cable modem). Is there an alternate link to use?

[ROCHADMR]

Great newsletter. Well worth the wait.

I must confess, I have been guilty of scrolling past the adverts without paying much attention. But this month's newletter ads caught my attention.

You have introduced me to some wonderful designers.

Thanks so much!

[stevenstwins]

You guys did AWESOME!!! This months newsletter is the BESTEST!!!!

WOOT for DST!

[JeanneLee]

Can't seem to download either...I hate to cause a hassel!

[Shannon]

No hassle at all :) I want everyone to have the newsletter and I'll get it to you anyway I can! (Check your PMs).

[JeanneLee]

I appreciate you working so hard to make this happen, Shannon!
...reading and enjoying my Dec issue now! :)

[Alicia25]

Yay its downloading! Thanks! I cannot wait to read it!

[beehive50]

Thanks for the new link, Shannon... I'm at work, but it's lunchtime so I'm downloading as I type! It must be a GREAT newsletter! :)

[mumtomanyuk]

Its me, the dreaded Mal!!

The gigabyte site wont work for me and I have waited incase it was overloaded but no luck. Can you send me another url please?
Mal

[NStreicher]

It didn't work for me either. :(

[Shannon]

Pm'd you both :agree

[smileyface_108]

Shannon. I have tried on numerous occassions to download the newsletter, but after I type in the code and click verify then all i get is a blank screen. Is there another way I can get the newsletter. I'm really looking forward to it. Thanks!

[~Rachel~]

I get the same error as smileyface.

[joanabq]

Shannon...same for me; I type in the verify letters and then nothing.

[just terra]

hmmmm.
that is SUCH a bummer you guys!

do you have pop up blockers on?

i just tried it from the link on the front page of this post, and the verifycode is case sensitive i realized after my first attempt - but then it took me right to the download page.

I wish i knew what to tell you guys!!!

shannon will be here soon to rescue everyone with magical newsletter PM's in their inboxes!!!!

[rubberduckie]

I have the same issue & I've tried it using both Firefox & IE. Just an FYI to help figure out the issue.

[smileyface_108]

I just tried to download again and was able to get the download started. There must have been problems with the Gigasize site. Thanks!

[Shannon]

I don't like gigasize so much. I'll upload to YSI again. :agree Link coming soon.

[Shannon]

Ok, fresh link in the original post :agree

[~Rachel~]

Thanks Shannon, you rock! And wholy moley... 63 mg!!!

[tbrannon]

I can't get it working now, I'm getting the error message.
=(

[Shannon]

That link is still valid. What kind of error message are you getting? :think

[Inkspots]

I realize it's been awhile, but is it still possible to get the newsletter? The link on page one says you've exceeded your limit.

[Shannon]

:agree New link has been added.

[Inkspots]

Thanks so much! Downloading now.:clap

[Josefin]

just got the email about this now - but I get this message, when I use the link:
A file is waiting to be downloaded:

Name: DSTInsider-Dec06.zip
Size: 63MB
Description: DST Insider - December 2006
And there is no where I can get somthing - if I dont go to the ads. ofcourse - can some one help me ( its not the first time Im blind, but...)

[Shannon]

Hi Josafin - If you scroll down about 3/4 of the way down the page you'll see a little blinking red arrow that points to the download link. :agree

[kdmomma]

Hi Shannon -- I just sent you an email about the gold membership kit, and I'm having similar trouble with the newsletter. :( It sounds great, and I'd love to read it, but I can't get it to download more than the first 400KB before it times out on my DSL! :(

Is there another way to get it or am I just too late?

[Shannon]

Unfortunately, I can't do anything about the size of the newsletter but most people were able to d/l it when they download it at night and aren't using their computer for anything else.

I'll send you a fresh link for the kit now. :agree

[Sissi2010]

Thank you, Shannon.

[Marretje]

I try it from this morning 9.00 till now 10.00 at the evening but I only get the message server is to busy, try later. But when I try the same message came again. Even with renew screen nothing is changed, however I have a fast cable and i could download at quiet, Netherlands, times.

[Marretje]

Yeh, finaly can download it.

[Shabby]

I can't get the whole thing, the server disconnects at about 60%...I'll keep trying...but it's terribly large for dial-up users...:>)

[Shannon]

Well we figured since it was a special issue and it's no larger than your average kit size it might be doable. :)

[Shabby]

I'm sure it is doable if I just keep trying....I'm biting at the bit to know what is in it that could make a newsletter that big or I'd move on...LOLOL

I assumed everybody knows that the majority of internet users are still on dial-up so I split my kits up into 20 MB zips to make it easier for those customers to download them...I thought everybody did that until I purchased a few recently that were not...you know what they say about assuming...LOLOL

[Terri Walsh]

Thanks!
