It looks to me as if the proprietors of this site have stolen all of their content, verbatim and without giving credit, from this site: http://www.wotsit.org/ (which is a truly excellent site, IMHO). Pretty slimy. I don't think I'll be visiting again any time soon, but feel free to compare for yourselves. For example, compare these sets of documents about graphics file formats: http://myfileformats.com/search.php3?cat_id=20&cat_name=Graphics&start=5 http://www.wotsit.org/search.asp?page=5&s=graphics It's either theft or a remarkable series of coincidences. -Andy "MyFileFormats.com" wrote: > > ATTN: Developers > > There is a new website: > > http://myfileformats.com/ - My File Formats - The Programmer's File > Format Collection > > MyFileFormats.com contains file format information on hundreds of different > file types and other useful programming information including algorithms, > source code, specifications, etc. > > Thank you for your attention, > > My File Formats Team > > myfileformats@myfileformats.com > >
