Since monk volunteered to upload forum photos to the Gallery, it has grown by leaps and bounds! He is tirelessly searching through old threads and saving photos to the Gallery that many of us haven't seen in ages, and crediting the engraver in the process. I consider this to be extremely valuable work, and suspect our Gallery could be the largest collection of hand engraving photos on the net. If you haven't browsed it lately, have a look.

Thanks for your hard work, monk! / Sam

i found out , this aint work. i found this natty lookin bird by magnus jensen. and then a comment by andrew biggs. andrew said: "don't be afraid to bite off more than you can chew" in doing this you will skrew up. when you skrew up, you can learn from your mistakes. this keeps stagnation away, and allows for personal growth. i always told newbies to take the easy road. perhaps i've learned a valuable lesson here.it is true, those fearing falure seldom taste success !

Thanks, Monk
For searching and posting "lost" photos in the photo gallery.
But for your efforts, I would have missed so much.
Now, I am checking the gallery on a regular basis to see what treasures you have found for us.
Thanks,
Stephen

Monk has single-handedly doubled or tripled the size of our photo gallery!

We're now at 669 photos and counting. Could we break 700? Will be break 1000? Monk the sleuth continues his ruthless pursuit of photo postings in old threads. This guy's a picture hunting animal. Photos tremble at the mention of his name.
