PA Review Exporter: Backup your reviews & ratings

Hi folks,

I developed a little program that automatically exports all your reviews/ratings in text files and your avatar image on your computer. I called it the "PA Review Exporter". The functioning is very simple:

- Fetch your reviewer ID from your reviewer page (the ID is the last number)

For example, my reviewer page is http://www.progarchives.com/Collaborators.asp?id=11816

=> my reviewer ID is 11816

- Enter your reviewer ID in the interface

- Click on "EXPORT"

-> The program will automatically:

   * Export every review/rating in a specific text file per album

   * Export all your reviews/ratings in a single general file "_ALL_REVIEWS.txt"

   * Export your avatar image in file "_AVATAR.jpg"

* Rename "PAReviewExporter.jpg" to "PAReviewExporter.zip",

* Be sure to unzip the file first,

* Double-click on "PAReviewExporter.exe",

* If Windows asks you to confirm the execution, say yes,

* All the files will be downloaded in "<your_windows_download_directory>/PA_REVIEWS".

Please bear in mind that the data fetch speed depends on your internet connection.

The program is for Windows only (sorry Mac fans) and only takes ~400 kb.

Feel free to write a post in this thread if you encounter an issue or want to suggest a helpful improvement. Any pertinent comment is welcomed.

PS: Special thanks to David (Atavachron), whose Klaus Schulze's reviews helped me to test the robustness of my program to weird characters .

PPS: I tried to directly upload the zip file in my personal file manager, but for some reason, it didn't work, that's why I had to do the ".jpg" trick.
