Hmm, zZip and WinRAR both choke on your ZIP files. :(

Mmmm... I used 7Zip with the normal regular deflate compression method to compress it with an IBM compatible PC (not an Amiga) so I'm not sure why you are getting the problem and the reason I use .zip and deflate is precisely because it is the most common and compatible compression method cause I'm trying to make it available as much as possible to the broadest amount of computer users so I seldom if ever get somebody that tells me that it has problems with this.

I remember that one day I got the problem with somebody that couldn't decompress one of my .zip files and I found out it was because I was using LZMA encoding but like I said I'm using deflate for everything now and I know that 7zip is not the best program in the world but it seldom gives me problems of any kind.

I don't know, Winrar should be able to eat something like this for breakfast. Ummmm any format that you can decompress that I may try? I can create .7z, .tar. I don't have at the moment a way to create a .rar file which could be better for you to also place it at Mediafire. Let's see what I can do. I will try later a different program. Will see, will see.
Upgraded my copy of 7zip and now im good :D

I created .tar versions of both files with a different program (PeaZip) and placed them as an alternative in my Mediafire wallpapers folder. Can you decompress those? Tell me if you succeed.

This is the address to that Mediafire folder:

Look for both files ending with .tar and see if you can decompress them OK.
the TAR's work fine in WinRAR
