Two comments:

1) Are you aware that you can view the games in "PGN" format?
http://www.itsyourturn.com/iyt.dll?viewpgn?game=15300006371568
(when viewing a game, there is a link under the "options" section)
nope, but am now.

oh, wow! - that is incredibly simple.

2) Is there a compelling reason you are using itsyourturn?  I used to use
IYT but switched to www.DragonGoServer.net (which I like _much_ better) and
it automatically creates SGF files.
no, i just started playing there at the request of my friend (who wants the program). i will check out the dragon.

thanks
