Hello Dan, I thank you for the offer you have made to place copies of the photos accompanying the articles on another Oregon list. I will have to decline your kind offer. I have not been sending the photos that accompany "History Mystery Photos" for at least three reasons: 1.) I've never learned to use a scanner 2.) The images in the newspaper print are not of good quality and I don't know how the clarity would be if they were scanned. In some, they are photographing old pictures from pictures that are faded themselves. If a person is actually interested in the photograph it is best to obtain a copy through contacting the newspaper. I'm sure the resolution in their copied photograph is much better than anything I could submit by scanning? rnichols@eaglenewspapers.com (Rodger Nichols). 3.) My sole reason is to expand the family names circulated so that people would know pictures are available if they desire to obtain copies. I receive messages that people never see "my family mentioned in your sends" and I am attempting to reach more people with what information I come across. My entries will always be "text". Again, Thank you.
