IMSLP Main Page

:oops: This is one of those "pain in the fundament" requests. Could the Main Page be changed so that the link to the "normal forum" system is also anchored to the words "normal forum" and the link to "How wikis work" similarly anchored? I keep clicking on the ...

Still problems uploading Finale files

I'm sorry. I thought this problem had been fixed. I am still getting an error message: Invalid file type (only PDF, DJVU, FIN and SIB allowed). :( I should point out, this is not happening when I upload the file, but when I attempt to link the file to the work page, in this case, Thomas Morley > Apr...

PDF submissions

I know not many people will have the time (or the energy) to do this: but when a graphic scan is converted to PDF for uploading, the resulting file is unnecessarily large.
