Questions and Comments on our Catalogs

[Shannon]

Good job my Catalog-Brother!

I added the Battle Of Jericho Hill comics in the Comic Catalog today, but I'm now updating turtlex's old entries one by one before I go any further. The layout is great, and the info collected is great, but there's too much of it sometimes. And the layouts aren't uniformed between the entries. Ugh, and the spaces! The spaces drive me crazy! Sometimes there are spaces on both sides of a colon, sometimes there are spaces on both sides of a slash mark. Sometimes there AREN'T, lol. It's taking a while, lol.

"Obsessive Catalog Disorder"?

[Shannon]

Definitely. I may be crazy by the end, but at least it will look nice, lol. Nice to me anyway, lol.

It's like a diamond that you keep cutting and keep cutting until you get the shine you want.

I could go on and on as well so I decided right from the start that I will not care about pic size, layout, fonts and so on in the Proofs Catalog.

I forgot to mention that I also uploaded a bunch of proof letters/publisher's letters. Some of the scans are (too) small but I had to work with what I have. Larger scans are always welcome!

[Shannon]

UUGHHH pic size! Don't get me started on picture size! Take the image, resize the image, upload the image, insert the new image address. ZUUZZgghghgkhihkbjc!!!

Lots of new images are going up for the "Short Works" section. Members-hats off to jhanic and others are posting pics of the artwork included in the original (usually a) magazine appearance.
Once again, the Catalog is improved, and continues to be the #1 internet source for images and information on Stephen King.
Thanks to all.

I've posted all the magazine illustrations that I had scanned. I have all the magazines, but they are boxed away and not easily accessible.

Congrats and appreciation to you two and all the other contributors for the No. 1 King resource on the internet!!!

[Shannon]

I loved seeing the new posts in the Short Works section, thanks!

FYI, I'm working on the comic section now, trying to get it up to date, and then after that I will be returning to my Short Works section. Ahhhh, time.

I would really love to have quality scans here for every original appearance of a King short story. Just the first page, with the title and the usual surrounding illustrations, for historical purposes. So far I've just been uploading stuff I was finding on eBay. But our collectors can surely provide much better pictures and more compete.

[Bad Penny]

I think most of us knew we could count on you Bruce

[Randall Flagg]

It would be best to post the images directly in the comment section for each short story (please).

[Shannon]

Yes, please. I will add them to the page itself when I get back into "Short Works" mode. A lot of the pages you guys are adding stuff to are from the old format, but I'll switch them over when I make the new pages. Thanks!

[mae]

Shannon, if you want assistance with the Short Works wiki, I'd be happy to help.

[biomieg]

I still don't own a scanner but I'd be happy to provide pics of King's contributions in my Ubris, Contraband, and Moth issues.

[mae]

That would be tremendous. Just the first page with the title etc. and any applicable illustrations.

[Mr. Rabbit Trick]

Yeah. Who cares about copyright laws!

[mae]

I'm pretty sure that's within fair use. This is for historical and educational/encyclopedic purposes.

I checked but there's actually not much to take pictures of. Only Ubris has a Table of Contents, and none of the King pieces have any artwork with them.

[mae]

A Table of Contents would still be useful.

[Randall Flagg]

All three entries for CD's Doctor Sleep are posted, alphabetical list updated, and complete chronological list updated.

[Ari_Racing]

Excellent! I'm creating the thread at the illustration's branch now.

[Randall Flagg]

Added The Century's Best Horror Fiction Artist edition to the Catalog, updated the Alphabetical and Chronological lists.
