Hi Bob,

I've been sending some images when I can to this site. I'm sure Eddie will appreciate if you send some.

One problem with images of shells that comes up is: what is authoritative? Looking up some species, there are two very different taxa illustrated. I believe Thais rugosa is one such example. Between several of the books and website images, there are two different ones illustrated. When I get a chance, I can list the differing opinions.

> What's the story on the www.gastropods.com?  Pictures are used fromeverywhere.  It's created by Eddie Hardy with pictures from Guido Poppe,
Femorale etc.  It looks interesting, although it has a lot of pictures to
be
filled in.  I guess permission has been given for the use of these
pictures?
I have many Marginellas pictures that are not on, and there are a few
mistakes made.  Someone tell me something about this Website.  I don't
live
on this computer to do much surfing.  I just try to keep up with my stuff.
