Default General Album Comment

Hi All
I would just like to thank all of you who take the time to make up albums and show the rest of us some of your collections. I thoroughly enjoy looking at them and often go back to look over and over...and drool...and turn green with envy
Anyway, thanks again.
Cheers,
Alex

I could not agree more. Have spent countless hours going through them. They are a great ready reference source and have saved me from making a few mistakes along the way. Thanks to all. Need to start my own one day with some of my bobbles and beads.

Best
Jack

Well said, chaps.

There are some absolutely super albums here; those members who are kind enough to share their collections, knowledge and enthusiasm ensure we all have a wonderfully nutritious archive at our disposal, day and night, free of charge.

Thank you from me too.

JT

I also agree but would say, even a brief description adds considerably to the pictures.

P.B.

First port of call for me when researching is a search of the albums, a great resource.

I can think of a few albums I have looked at that had no picture descriptions, which did sadly detract somewhat, though with big albums, uploading descriptions takes time and mistakes are possible which do sometimes get picked up by others.....
