As with the archive of phpBB 2 MODs, I am now downloading all phpBB 2 styles from the official database. These include:

Currently have 417 out of approximately 430 files from phpbb.com.
Disclaimer: There may be a few very new styles not included.

I have added both MODs and Styles as torrents on my own bittorrent tracker.
MODs torrent | Styles torrent
I have an upload capacity of around 200 kB/s on my own, having more seeds won't do any harm |

I have downloaded this file and will be posting it "as is" meaning as one large file on this site shortly. Thanks.
Eventually the goal will be to post individual styles, of course. _________________ phpBBDoctor Blog |

Hi,
Ordinarily MODs are covered by the GPL and so their redistribution is not a problem (methinks). With styles (images especially) it is a different story, so is it not an idea, apart from contacting each and every author, to add a file to the zips with something such as;
Quote: | This file was originally available at the phpBB website and was obtained, due to the discontinuation of phpBB2, in order to preserve it. If you are the author of this package and this act of preservation is against your wishes, or you wish to update the files and/or change the terms of distribution, please contact the site it was obtained from.
Please check the contents of the zip file for any further details, especially restrictions, regarding the files. |
Is putting a link to here desirable?
BTW: I know some authors don't allow redistribution from sites other than phpBB and these need attention. I have contacted Kail and asked him.

Hi,
Kail wrote: | I'd rather you linked to my site (and not to the download directly but to the page of each template) as I'd like to have some way of keeping track of the number of downloads. I have no plans to remove the files and I don't mind hosting them. The site URLs are clean and will remain as they are and are safe to use. |

Is he okay with us adding his styles to our demo page, even if we redirect to his site for downloads? _________________ phpBBDoctor Blog |
