Can I post it here as long as I give credit to the author? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, as long as you give the author full credit, it's by no means considered illegal to archive their works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanted to be sure. Thank you for taking the time to investigate though Wyv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
