The Works section of site.

Post by Samuel »

I'm not sure who owns this site yet since I am new, but I'm wondering if anyone knows wether the owners plan on adding more titles and jacket covers to The Works section. This is the third time I've visited the section just clicking on the pictures and wow what a memory lane overload I'm getting. I just love looking at the covers. I would love to see more added to the site.

hi Samuel

you'll have to be patient.

Admin had a choice to make .... whether to wait until the site was complete, or whether to get it up and running asap.

as the site isn't anybody's job (merely a labour of love) fitting in time to do all the extras isn't easy. :D

cheers

Glad you like the site, Samuel! :D

*scratches head*

Maybe I misunderstand you, but I can see lots of jacket covers in the Works section. Aren't people seeing them? A thumbnail for each each book on the main list, and then, when you click for further details, there is a larger image of the title.

That said, we are planning to add more scans of different versions/editions of the books and maybe - though I haven't discussed this with Tony yet - some of the foreign versions. I'll keep you posted.

As for more titles, we probably will add more to the database in the future. There are 161 there now, which isn't bad, covering all the main books/series. As our Enid wrote over 700 in all, we will have to draw the line somewhere! :D

There are also several other sites that show book covers if you are interested. Try these to start with:

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/serge.passions/ ... nfants.htm (mostly in French)
http://www.misteriojuvenil.com/ (mostly in Portugese)
