  1. Thank you for your reply.  So, you say shared examples from subscribed marbles need pre-approval before being shared publicly to eliminate misidentified specimens.  Do you have a panel of experts that will conduct the vetting?  I ask this because anytime the general public is invited to share information it's a free for all filled with chaos and rampant inaccuracies from uneducated sources.

  2. I don't understand the usefulness of this software - in my case anyways.  My collection is organized quite nicely and important photos and notes are saved both on the cloud and externally so I have no need to employ further technical aspects.  Others may find this an amazing tool??  I am however, curious to know how misidentified marbles will not be shared to the public - if one chooses to share as you say they can opt to do so.

  3. The photos are not optimum which is not really a criticism but does present an extra challenge.  I'm seeing the base color as a particular dark wine red that I associate with some CAC slags.  This color creates a bronzy effect where the white is just below the surface.  IMHO along with the color blows in the white and pattern flow in general I'd have this with my CAC slags. 

  4. Hello all!  First post here, and delighted to become a member.  I just want to compliment everyone on the very cool marble related rarities seen here.  While I don't personally have any rare marble accoutrements to share I am enjoying what I see!  I have limited my collecting to just marbles themselves - save a few fisher jewel trays.  I have always hoped to stumble upon a Vitro lamp, and Schmoozer that's a beauty.  Thanks for sharing!
