There are two ways to post photos. Either upload the photo to a web site that hosts photos and link to the photo with the http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/...nsertimage.png icon, or you can upload to the site server in the Gallery.Quote:

You have three picture posting options. You can post the thumbnail, the medium sized image below the thumbnail, or you can click on the medium sized image and another window will open with a full sized image. Right click the image you want. Select Copy Image Location, then click the http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/...nsertimage.png button in the thread you want and paste the image location in the box. Click OK.
You did it! :clap:

This is my last refresh until Friday Nov 6th at 4pm when I plan to upload 1/3rd of new consignment. It will be a level playing field for ALL. Consignee sent out (2 months ago) the spreadsheet of items to several people and while I have received requests from over 15 people in the meantime requesting certain items, I have REFUSED those requests. First come first served seems to be the fairest way. I anticipate popular items will be claimed QUICKLY (like the first 10 minutes)...remember, this is only PART of the new consignment. I still need to inventory and prices A LOT of items.
I dread the day all mine go for sale. I will sell them though... One day. If I may ask John... and if you feel like sharing, was it hard to do this? How do you feel knowing they are going? Relieved now that it is real or sad? If you want to share of course.Quote:

At least, selling them through Betts almost guaranteed that they would go to people who would appreciate them. Just the thought of never seeing them again was, and still is, hard.Quote:

Thanks John. I hope to give a couple of them, as you know, a loving home. There is solace (as you said) in that. I think other collectors getting them is a great thing and I hope to see that happiness someday as they have brought me. I am sorry you are selling your collection as I know one day that will be hard for me to. Cheers my friend and thanks for sharing....Quote:

Sorry to hear John that you have to part with your collection. If I may say, I think that nobody else than David will be able to find them the better home your collection deservesQuote:

Sorry you had to make this hard decision John.
A hard decision for sure John, but in the end none of us ever 'own' these books, we are merely fortunate caretakers for a while.
So very true.Quote:
