Subject: Funball
Hey,

I tried to submit the game "Funball" myself, but after filling out the first form I was greeted with a blank screen (website template with no content at http://www.dosmuseum.com/pages/upload_swf.…?collection_a…). It's a good little strategy game for 1 or 2 players, and has a different style of play from anything else I've seen.

Thanks for the attempt to submit a title to the archive.  Unfortunately, the web software I use was designed for private collections run by archivists in museums.  As a result it's support for public collections with anonymous/guest browsing and interactions are limited (and buggy).

I've downloaded a copy of Funball and will add it to the collection today.

If you are interested in contributing by adding other titles to the archive let me know and I can create an account for you.

If it's not a lot of trouble, an account would be nice. Unfortunately, I was born in '92, so I don't have a collection quite as large as yours. However, I do love old MS-DOS games (some favourites are SkyRoads, Hocus Pocus and Commander Keen) and would like to help you out with this project. Thanks to DosBox, I can play these quality games on my Linux box! (And they say that Linux isn't a gaming OS  :-D ).
