so some helpful hints would be really appreciated.

You can try anonymous ftp to 129.69.1.12
and get a file called "amiga.sites" or somthing like that.
it contains a list of amiga bases.

You should also try ftp.etsu.edu

cd aminet

They have the largest selection of Amiga stuff I've seen, the whole system is
mirrored to another in Europe, I believe.  They have all sorts of things there
from Demos to utils & stuff.

If you're a first timer, the only words of advice I have for you are this:

Don't forget to type BINARY before "getting" a file, as most everything there
is lha/lzh or what-not.
