UNOFFICIAL UNDERGROUND FORUM ARCHIVES

Welcome! If you are a member of the Underground forum, you know how fast posts disappear. I plan to archive some of the very informative posts that I've read and learned off of the UG forum. With Kirik's permission (as he has copyright on all posts to the UG), I am reposting some of the good ones. He just asked that I credit the posts to the UG forum members and that I mention the Underground forum.
