OK your fart smuckers.....

[Billyman]

But can you help me with this?

You know the net is filled with sound bites from movies and such.

How can you steal them? or can't you?

How can I copy it and post it elsewhere?

How do you record your own audio messages and whatnot for posting purposes?

Sound files are like picture files, only worse, they take up a lot of space, kind of fucks it up for the dial-up crew.

Anyhow, .wav files are what you are looking for.

[Billyman]

huh?

Since I'm not sure what you're talking about, I'll assume you mean embedded MIDI's, WAV's in webpages, etc.
The process for swiping them is fairly simple:

First, go to a webpage with a sound you wanna steal from 'em.

Right click on the page and pick "View Source".

Now, here's where you'll get confused a bit if you don't know HTML, but hang in there.

Look at this code below:
<BLOCKQUOTE><HR>
EMBED src="http://www.cox-internet.com/meshboy/sounds/terry2.au" border=0 loop=false autostart=false
[/quote]

Now, what you want to do is find something similar to that. Usually, any content you want from a page, be it Flash, sounds, or movies will be embedded.

Find the code and copy the full URL of the wave file; so if I wanted to steal theMAC's sound, I'd have "http://www.cox-internet.com/meshboy/sounds/terry2.au" (without quotation marks).

Open up Notepad and enter the following info, replacing "{}" with "<>" and changing the sample URL to the one with the sound you want.

[/quote]

Ok, go to File>Save As.

Under "Save As Type", select "All Files".
Type the filename you want, and put ".html" at the end, no quotation marks. Save the file to your desktop, open it.

Right click the link and select "Save Target As".

If you did it right, you'll get a prompt to save the sound file you wanted.

Right click on that link you posted and hit "Save Target As".

You can indeed. http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/smile.gif

Anything can be saved to your computer using the method outlined above.

I just used it as an example. You asked if it could be saved...well, it prompted you to save it, no? http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/smile.gif

View Source...it's an option when you right click on a page, not a link. In any case, you should be able to go to the View menu and see an option to view the source of a page.

If there's a "{", then replace it with "<", if there's "}", replace that with ">".

Jesus God its like the blind leading the blind off a fucking clif on the backs of rabid lemmings in here...ahh...nightmare world...

Ok...you cant rip sound out of flash...thats all there is to it...yer best bet would be to rig your comp to record when you play the sound from that flash file...just use whatever little audio thing your computer has...other than that, yer basically screwed...why not find the guy who made the flash dealy and ask him for specific sound bytes...??
