Go to your temporary internet files,look for flash file and drop it somewhere you can find it easily. I think it must be called something like chapter5 and if you want to play it, open IE and drop the file in it.

Maybe there is an easier way but I don't know about it.

yeah another great episode I have a feeling somewhere in time might take a while if he plans on reproducing the front cover in flash

Hey! That was great! I'm not quite sure how Aces High and 2 Minutes fit in, but....Was it that he was searching for his mind in those dates?

Right, it was very well done, Val. I can't wait for Somewhere in Time. I really want to see how well you draw the city scene. (SIT Album Cover)

Yeah that would be my only criticism this time it seemed a bit more stuck together than usual and the story didnt flow like it usually does but I'm not going to complain becasue findiing a link between each song on every album can not be easy!

I understood it perfectly. After a while in the cartoon, Eddie has a flashback of why he is in the past, with the little devil guy spilling coffee on the computer thing, which made Eddie skip between times. In Aces High (love that song), he was in WW2, and in 2 Minutes to Midnight, he was in (I think) the cold war, I was never good at history.

So, it still kicks ass.

Well, think this is a little complicated...So come on:
Yes, PHLEG is right...Eddie has a flashback of why he is in the past ("Aces High" and "Two Minutes to Midnight")...
The flashback ("Losfer Words") Eddie goes untill the your Mind was, cause Nicko McBrain catched the Eddie's Mind ("To tame a Land" in the "Piece of Mind")...then, asks for that it needs to come back and see the Little Devil Guy pulling out the handle of force, and the computer off on the moment that Eddie is go back to the "Headquarter"...
In the final of flashback, the time is present ("Flash of the Blade" ahead) and the little guys from hell, try bring to Back Eddie...
Well, I hope don't had complicated more...

It worked fine thanks......

**Val** I suggest, in SOMEWHERE IN TIME ,you can put somethings from Star Wars (criters, millenium falcon,R2 D2,C3PO)

Just an idea!!!!!

PS. I must say I am waiting to see your "Alexander the Great" version

I'm currently watching Blade Runner, which the SiT cover's similar to. Great movie...

But I can't wait to see your take, Val! I'll let the master at it!

Im interested to see how Eddie will be turned into the Eddie from the SiT cover.
