Should pin this thread I nearly missed it.


I have requested it to be pinned through a support ticket.  I've never requested a topic be pinned before.  Is there a different way I should request it?

You may have more luck just sending a PM to Ken or Gerri.

Juoquim: At this rate i will have no problem continuing to serve this as well as future versions simultaniously if desired... just upload any revisions to the ftp and use the same link format as before... consider the space yours for this project.

Funny, my stats give the same amount, 48. Although the total hit count is 106, but the rest of the downloads are incomplete. Incomplete downloads originates only to couple of IP-addresses.

I've had 131 hits to the download script. Of those, I have no idea how many are partial, and I do know using a download manager which downloads in segment completely messes up the counts (went from 2 to 17 during my testing phase).

If you want to contribute images of Norwegian actors, make following:
- backup your whole collection with cast and crew
- create a new empty database
- restore only Norwegian movies into this new database, restore cast and crew too
- restore any other movies too where you know Norwegian actors to appear
- make a full database repair in order to get rid of all non-Norwegian cast and crew
- edit your profiles, delete all cast and crew without headshots or assign one
- make a new backup file including cast and crew

This final backup file can be now called Norwegian_Master_Headshots. It now includes only profiles with Norwegian cast and crew who has a headshot assigned.

The addition of a number of birth years is a rather unwelcome "gift" indeed - but hey, at least I've learned that Harrison Ford was born in 1884... 

Apart from that: great work!

In another thread about headshots database was information that there was A Harrison Ford who acted in an early silent film - and he's the one wo ws born in 1884, not the Indiana Jones/American Graffiti Harrison Ford.  The headshot was supposed to be a drawing rather than a photo but somehow that didn't get corrected yet.

The cleaned up version of the Headshot Master Database is about to be finished.

Almost all birth years have been deleted. Only following same name cast or crew members remain:
  Kenny Baker 1912 & 1934
  Matthew Beard 1925 & 1989
  Colin Farrell 1938 & 1976
  Harrison Ford 1884 & 1942
  Jim Norton 1938 & 1968
  Tracy Reed 1942 & 1949
  Kevin Smith 1963 & 1970
  Liz Smith 1921 & 1923
  John Williams 1903 & 1932
  Mike Mills 1958 & 1966

Does anybody have a headshot of Colin Farrell (1938)?

I hope we could be in public with the new master quite soon. So, if you have not yet downloaded the current version, please wait. This is going to be MUCH better.

Based on another thread there should be BY's for 2 Bruce Campbell's and 2 Diana Lewis's.  Here's a link to the thread that mentions them.  Sorry, don't know what the BY's should be, just that they should exist.

-edit-
Oh, and there's currently a vote going on adding BY's for Richard O'Brien (one from Dark City, the other from Andromeda Strain.  Currently 75 Yes, 0 No so I have a feeling these will go through)

Diana Lewis is not present in the Master at all. Do you have any sources for headshots for both of them. This time only people with a headshot are going to be listed in the Master.

Only one Bruce Campbell and Richard O'Brien is listed in the Master file. I can add the other ones if I can find a headshots.

Excellent work, Jykke.  Best to get this done quickly before too many of these BYs propagate.

If it's any help although I can't find a headshot on the net anywhere if anyone has the British TV series of Porridge : Episode "Happy Release" on DVD and can get a still of the Character "Norris" this would help.

He is listed as a cast member for this 1975 production http://porridge.org.uk/castli.html
and being 1 year before Colin Farrell of PhoneBooth fame a screen grab might be ok>
