Hi Bart,
Here is my contribution. This is my first recording and I don't really use my legal name, I go by Jim Henry. Will this be O.K. ?

Thanks!

Thank you Miranda and welcome to LibriVox.
I listened to your recording and there are two issues:
In the first place your file is in stereo. Our standard is mono.
Secondly I hear a soft tone under your voice. I tried and it is possible to remove it with noise reduction software.
You'll find information on both issues on this wiki page.
Your recording sounds good, so I hope you'll manage to address these issues and reupload (using the same file name).

Hello again Bart,

I have re-saved the file as mono instead of stereo, after running the background noise reduction function, and I think all is well now. The new file, with the same name, is now uploaded. Please let me know if there are any other issues with the recording. Thanks again.

That's fine. Just go ahead. You don't have to announce a recording.

"The Cats of Ulthar" is PL OK! The only thing that needs to change is the filename. It should end with _128kb.mp3 (instead of _128kbps.mp3). Bart can take care of it now or at cataloguing :)
