    Thanks Jack!!

    The site is still a work in progress. Several of the modules aren't completed. With my slowness in html and picking which photos to put up, it may never get done.

    I still plan on writing a little bio on each person to whom the gallery is named. PCcoins of course is the Jon gallery and there are more of his images coming. Jack is Toneddollars, Sy is SkyMan, Raisinet is Gobrechts99Grapevine, Pete is ESM on the Registry, Curly is Curly here and Duane is Duane from here.

    The rest are from NGC.

    With such great material to choose from I was disappointed over and over at how watered down Photobucket would make the images appear. Hopefully those days are over.

    I didn't do this to market my work. I have never taken payment for any photo I have made. That is not what the site is about.

    Not really looking for much these days but if I were, it might be a toner. :smile:

    Wow... very nice display. Although not a personal fan of tarnished coins, that is impressive photography and nice coins. Cheers, RickO

    Bob has never charged one cent for his time and efforts. It is so typical of a few to rain on ones parade.

    I was glad I got away from photobucket years ago. What they do to good images is a shame.

    I feel the need to respond to this . First off, Bob did not post this, it was another member of this forum. Bob has helped me more times than I can count with coin related questions and imaging questions I have had. He has NEVER asked me for a dime, instead he has gone out of his way to help me when I havn't even asked him to do so.

    So when I read stuff like this.......Also a great way for him to market his work. >>



    ... It's so far from what Bob is all about. He's all about helping a guy out!

  • I didn't mean it in a negative way, my apologies if I came off like so.

    They really are professional-quality photos.
