Great buttons Steve, I store images AND buttons; have them send to Mark K so he can ad them to my parcel!(lol!!)
No, just kidding!
I do store images, but i have got better then a computer!!
I started a (Dutch /Flemish) forum to store and share!
Have a look @ knopen verzamelaars boutons de collection buttons :: Index
Not that much members, only 4 are active (now and then...!)
But you have to know that i started that forum, because it was the only thing i could come up with to communicate with a button collector who lives 120 km from me. As we had to exchange a lot of pic's and also stock them, it seemed to me the best way...
