The new download panel


I am please to present to everyone the new and improved download panel.
I have updated the "Available Issues" download panel, from the old and boring text links to the much more appealing image icon links. However in doing so it has come to my attention that there are differences in downloading and viewing of the issues between FireFox and Internet Explorer 7 (IE)(I haven't test the downloading and display of the site on other browsers such as Opera or older versions of FireFox and EI, so please leave a comment if you are having issues with certain browsers). So just as a precaution i would like to give everyone heads up on how they can download individual issues.
If you are using EI you can download an issue in 2 ways.
1- Right click and image and select "save target as". It will then ask you to save a file called 'view.pdf'. You can rename this file to the name you desire (but keep the pdf extension), and save to your desired location on your computer.
2- Left click an image, and wait a we bit for the issue to download and open in your acrobat reader. You can then click on the save icon (which looks like an old floppy disk) to save a copy of the pdf file on your computer

For FireFox, you can either
1- Do the same as option 2 for EI or
2- You can right click the image and go "save link as". A download window will prompt you download a file called "view.php". You can rename this file, and chance its extension from "*.php" to "name.pdf" in order to save the file as a pdf.

Hope that helps anyone who is not sure about how to download a copy of the current issues.
