I really dislike it when a file is larger than 50MB as it really ties up my computer for a very long time. A 50MB file will take me 25 to 50 min to download depending on how fast/slow things are at the time (I have broadband).

I don't know how you sort things, but I sort by designer and then have folders under each with all of their kits that I have....so I don't really care to much how the files are named as they are always in a folder under the kits they come from and thus the designer.

Broadband refers to a high data transfer rate of dsl or cable rather than a dial up connection through a 56k modem. If it takes you that long to download a file I don't think you have broadband (It takes me 2 minutes 13 seconds to download a 50mb file).

I was asking/hoping designers would include a all-in-one download link in addition to the smaller files so people could choose which one was best for them. (i.e. you could choose the all-in-one file when you were going to bed and not needing the computer and in the morning the entire kit would be downloaded).
