Hi everyone. Today I finished my latest project which was archving 1584 photos (+2 videos) of LAN parties in Tasmania ranging from 1996 to 2010. Previously these photos were lost to time until I got in contact with the right people. Looking through the photos is a great blast of nostalgia, I hope you get some enjoyment from looking through them too!

This is really cool. Looks like there isn't a single download where one can get all the images though, which is a shame.
You can see a list of the uploads here: https://archive.org/details/@issung

Then either download the ones you're interested in manually as packs, as IA makes that very easy. Or, search through GitHub to find one of the bunch of IA downloading tools available.

I'm interested in all of them, but not enough to go to every single page there.
Nice work! I ran some LANs ("LANded NT") and went to lots more up in Darwin, Northern Territory between 1999-2002, largest being ~150 people but sadly I think all related media has been lost. Previous had website, and was forum chatter with some photos about the events, but these days can't find anything. Photos you've got hear reminded me of these events, good times!
Good times indeed
Good times Thank you
