GemAddicts Gallery Goes Now Live
I would like to proudly announce the going live of our gallery of gemstones and gemstone materials. It is not entirely completed but is well on its way and more content will be added as the images get finished. Our goal is to provide an online reference guide for collectors, jewelers, gemologists, etc. of gemstones, jaspers, agates, telltale inclusions for both natural and treated materials, crystals& rough, as well as cut & finished pieces loose and in jewelery. We believe that this would be a very useful tool to double check identifications and the like so correct and better and more thorough IDs can be made. We hope you enjoy the gallery as well as find it a useful tool.
A special thanks goes out to Astynax, because without his contributions and hard work this project would have never come to be! He has spent a lot of time and put forth a lot of effort to bring this project to life and deserves a large kudos from everyone! So please drop by the forums and give him a big thanks for all his hard work!
Added by request of Squeaky:
Another special thanks goes to Jamey S. – without his work, dedication as well as server space and network for this wonderful website, none of this would be possible. His gemstone knowledge, cutting talents and his exceptional photographic abilities are well known and much appreciated throughout the gemstone community. We are truly honored to have him here.
If you have an image of any material that you think would be a good addition to the project feel free to submit it to us via email or contact us for further details. You would, of course, retain all copyrights and rights of usage, but would merely be giving us simple usage rights to display the image on the website and/or gallery project. We would also give appropriate credits for the images submitted as well. But please only submit images that you either own the copyrights to or have proper usage right to, thanks in advance.
BEAUTIFUL Place!
