Those catalogs & flyiers look to be in mint condition!! I've got the brown one with Buffy St. Marie on the cover but the others sure would look nice in MY collection - Hey Paul I'll give you $20 for them!!! :D

Location: SoCal | Al, I'll do it, but I'm going to have to find a full afternoon to do it in because I've got a ton of catalogs. I'll coordinate with Miles in a few weeks as to what I have that he needs scanned. In return, he can get the pics and stuff from the OFC gathering up. Does that sound fair? |

Sorry for the delays, just been busy with things that I actually get paid to do. :)
I received the last of the OFC Tour pictures last week, so that project should be done in short order, maybe this week even.
I am working on the online store and CD simultaneously so that should be in a few more weeks. |

As I've offered before, if you guys EVER need any kind of help with scanning, photo-editing, layout, or anything of a "graphical" nature, just lemme know. I'd be more than happy to help! |

scan any catalogs or paperwork you have and send it in. That is my next goal for this site to have a comprehensive catalog archieve.

Location: SoCal | Maybe we should coordinate on this. I've got a lot of catalogs and I'll bet I've got a lot that Cliff has. Why don't we divy up the scanning so we're not all doing the same catalogs. |

As soon as I get these new catalogs, I'll make a list of mine and shoot it out to both of you. Then we'll divvy up what we've got. |

Location: NJ | My catalog inventory is extremely meager (see my e-mail Paul(s) ). Once you guys have determined who has what and what needs to be scanned, if Al wants to send some (or even all) of what he has to me, I'd be more than happy to help with the scanning duties.
My other thought was . . . . . .
Miles, what are the chances of "opening the architecture" in the "Reference" section to allow memmbers to enter in photos/data (like we can do in the galleries)?
What I'm thinking is to list the various model numbers and then let those members who have the knowledge/experience with their respective models enter in a photo and vital "stats" (years made, top material, scale length, bracing pattern, etc.) sorta' like a baseball card.
In this way, "newbies" looking for info on a specific model can look it up themselves as opposed to asking the obligatory ". . . can anyone offer any info on this model? . ." question. Granted, it'd be a significant amount of data, but if bonafide Members had the access to enter the info, a lot of the work would be spread out over the Membership and not solely on your shoulders.
Just a thought. |

let's try to get a conprehensive list of catalogs together and then assign volunteers to scan them in whatever format miles wants to use and that way it will be easy to accomplish |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | The best way is to scan into PDF format. That way it's resizeable and searchable. Scanning with any other format would have to be done at such a high resolution for small print items brosures that the files will be too big. |
