# Your artwork is good
but I don't think you really understand b3ta. It's not an art site, it's a place where like minded creative people share a fairly specific sense of humour.

Perhaps if you had read the FAQ you'd understand this and some of the comments people make.

# Good Morning Mistah Toats
Good Morning everybody

Today I are mostly converting old cassettes into MP3. I thought I'd need a special tape deck (like what my bro-in-law bought) but it works just fine with a lead and some free software.

# Good morning David

I did this a couple of years ago. Put a tape deck under my monitor and just recorded away. Didn't have any specific software though. Sounds interesting. Not that I have most of the tapes anymore.

# audacity!
free and perfect for the job.
started doing mine a few years ago. it's a tedious and seemingly endless process

# Yes, took me several months.

But I just popped a tape in there when I was busy doing other things.

Certainly, I missed a couple of song endings from time to time. But being able to do other things while it recorded away and occasionally rerecording a song more than made up for not having to sit around waiting for them.

# I did this once for what was left of my old C90 John Peel recordings
the quality wasn't great but that was the original taping not the digitizing and an enjoyable project with lots of leads and specialist sockets and such.

b3ta is more about community, general nonsense and jokes, rather than actual artistic talent.
Your lovely pics are welcome, but try not to pay attention to what we all say - its a strange place, where everyone knows each other very well. Lots of obscure in-jokes and such...
