[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	Is it possible to edit the displayed names of the books on the nook? For example, R.A. Salvatore's series all say Forgotten Realms instead of the actual book title. Is there a way to edit this? -----signature----- Calihane - Thane Caliyrie - Valkyrie Calidoc - Armsman Sonsham - Infiltrator http://gimpchimp.etilader.com/s.php?u=Calidoc

	I have no idea what a 'NOOKbook' is. Any ebook file I have come across I could edit with that. You will need something to break the DRM if that doesn't do it, perhaps Cao's silly program. -----signature----- If I have burnt my bridges I will walk on water.

	Sorry, it's just what B&N calls there ebooks now. For some reason I've started saying it too. Hm, I'll give it a shot. Thanks! -----signature----- Calihane - Thane Caliyrie - Valkyrie Calidoc - Armsman Sonsham - Infiltrator http://gimpchimp.etilader.com/s.php?u=Calidoc

	Hey Yoss, Stanza won't open most of my ebooks, and most of the ones it does come up as gibberish. Is this DRM, or am I doing something wrong? (which is a very good possibility) -----signature----- Calihane - Thane Caliyrie - Valkyrie Calidoc - Armsman Sonsham - Infiltrator http://gimpchimp.etilader.com/s.php?u=Calidoc

	I have to assume it is the DRM. I use Stanza to open ebooks in multiple formats, word documents, PDFs, microsoft lit files, etc. I haven't found anything it couldn't open. I don't really know anything about DRM, I haven't tried to open anything I bought from them I've only used it on other files. -----signature----- If I have burnt my bridges I will walk on water.
