Suggestings about updating the authentication guides

Scott,
It's all a moot point now. The baseball photo book and the wirephoto book will be re-issued in their original format: printed booklets at a cost. These two little guides were very good sellers for me before I put them online ... The baseball book is officially out of commision and won't be issued as a book or in other format. I originally published it in book form circa 2000, and sold a grand total of about 4 books (Does that count as My Worst Trade Ever?). This not only expains why I was willing to put that one online for free, but that it's the humaine thing (for me and the book) to officially put that thing out of its misery.

The two non-sport guides online right now will stay there (I wasn't going to use the opinions of Net54 to determine the viability of a fine art print guide). Nothing else on the site will be removed either, other than normal web editing ... I'm also actively working on another guide, though I'm not sure if it will be directly put on line or issued as a paper book.

As noted before, maintaining a workable and aesthetic large website means regularly updating, weeding and editing-- so the fact that I am changing things this way or that way now is normal course. Again, I'm not not complaining about the lack of response, as getting opinions in a variety of forms (including lack of response), is important in determining how the site should be set up and what should be featured.

Best wishes,
David
