I'll be your MC for this project TBOL3

I'd like to recommend that you change the information for filename so that it tells your readers exactly what to use for the filename.

Also, you can use my uploader if you'd like (any uploader is fine though). If you choose to do so, you can change the information in the first post to the following.

Woops,

Kri, you might want to change the mold for BCs, becouse the link for the text dissapears when you replace it with the little box.

May I please request Section 2, "The Yellow Face"...?

[Pleonic]

May I have #6, The Reigate Puzzle ? I've always loved the bit of acting Holmes does in that one.
