So I finally got around to it over the long weekend -- I finish the pics to my entire collection -- proofs, toners, mint state, everything!
I'd like a little feedback as to not only the pics, but the layout and the site itself. I decided to host it with a picture site (Pbase) instead of doing my own complete website. I can add some text, but not as much as having my own site. I figured it was easier to upload and maintain and I think the black background looks nice, but I'd like to hear others thoughts as well.
Please, take a look and tell me what you think.
Thanks,
TPN

Doesn't anyone take pictures of beautiful, unmarked, white lustrous coins?
Anyway, excellent site, and terrific pictures!! Once I learn html, I hope to do something comparable some day!!
Is there any significance to the dates on the proof sets (i.e. relative birth years, etc.)?
And the coins, WOW

Dont you own all of them?
Thanks -- all for those that are interested the site is a basic webhosting gallery site, but I think it looks remarkable nice for coin images. It almost appears to be your own website kinda of setup. Its called Pbase and it can be found at here.
Its really easy to use and set up and I highly recommend paying for the upgrade. It loads fast and they make it easy to upload.

Only suggestion I would have is that maybe you should crop the pics in a circle (if your photo software has that capability). I use "Picture It" and it allows me to crop using a square or a circle. That way you don't have any "slab" showing. Just a suggestion.
I REALLY like that website.
AWESOME COINS BY THE WAY....
You have some very nice coins and pics to go with them.

I enjoyed the proof type coins.
About the layout..........I would like to see the spaces between the pics made smaller,
that's a lot of distance for my eyes to cover to get to the next coin

I thought about this and figured that keeping the slab around the coin shows that the pics havent been played with. There are so many photographers that can make a coin look great with photoshop and then cut it out so you dont have a frame of reference as to how the pic has been played with. I just thought it better to leave the slabs there. And its less work!

Me too, I just have to figure out how to do it, thats all!

I just checked. Your 1879 proof dime is much nicer than the one in that auction.
