  1. Well, it wasn't working. Luckily my husband knows enough to recognize it didn't have a memory card. I didn't know what a memory card was, and didn't register what "memory stick SD card adaptor" in the ebay description could mean. It meant I still needed a card to go in that adaptor. Oops. But hubby had a spare and now I have one. So yay. But I need to rest and recuperate before I try to take marble pictures.
  2. Did you mean "both sites"? There aren't "sides". Most of us are friends on facebook. Leading members of that site post here. The owner of this site is a member in good standing over there. I'm just not. And you have to be a member to view the links. So I just don't get to see them. That's all.
  3. It's so shiny my first thought was modern. But that could be an Akro Royal.
  4. Aw, go have a look. The marble world used to have a lot of resources on it but it looks like Marble Connection's old Nova threads are missing and the other marble sites I knew of with the info have gone offline. If AAM is the official keeper of the Nova information now, so be it. Check it out.
  5. Interesting looking ... Would like to see more views of the seams.
  6. I think this is another Peltier Rainbo
  7. This one is modern. Vacor, I think.
  8. If vintage, then this one looks Vitro, but it might be modern. (You do have some moderns in this group of marbles.)
  9. Possibly a Peltier Rainbo. (Edit: actually pretty sure it's a Peltier Rainbo.)
  10. Bennington (a German ceramic marble)
  11. I've had some mega rockhounds in my family. I don't even dabble. But I do love a pretty rock. The biggest rockhound in my family gave my husband a pretty sizeable amethyst geode with another crystal nested inside ... but I put all our cool rocks into some kitty litter buckets in preparation for a move. And the move didn't happen in a timely manner and the rocks stayed in the buckets. And then the buckets got used to hold down the back of a pick-up in the snow. And then someone stole the buckets from the back of the pick-up. We were very sad to lose that geode. This past year I decided I needed some more pretty rocks and so I bid on some online and now I have them in a candy dish. (with some goldstone and some stoneware marbles)
  12. I'm banned at AAM and was looking forward to the fun of growing a Nova thread over here. Oh well. Sara, I hope that gives you the info you were looking for.
  13. So SonyT200 is the unanimous choice! "Ottlite" is new to me. Simple is good!
  14. Welcome! That's a lot of years of collecting. Bet you have some treasures.

    Hello

    Obviously gotta love a wet-looking CAC. But that Vitro is amazing!
  16. My camera which is now in six pieces was a Canon PowerShot SX170 IS point-and-shoot. It was okay but the flash gave some distracting effects which made marbles less clean looking.
  17. Time to get a new camera. Gives me an idea for a thread where you guys post your camera model and some representative marble photos. And if you have a special set up for your marble photos, maybe share that too?

    Good observation about NW Montana! Muddies are keepers, by the way.
  19. It briefly occurred to me to wonder how they made that happen but then I forgot to keep wondering.
