Hey guys,
I changed my name and I am working on changing my look 
The last guy that was hosting my site went under and because of the problems I was having trying to get my name moved I just changed it.
I am now using The CPU Shack to host my site located here: http://theintelcollection.com/
I am still taking photos daily and so there are a few broken links that I haven't gotten to yet. Here is an example of how my photos look now:
I am using wafers as a back ground for my photos. What do you think?
Those of you that have sites please add me to your link bars and if I don't have you on mine I will add you as well.
Thanks,
Lee

Hi Lee,
i changed the link on my website.
your website is the biggest Intel Collection i know, congratulations 
f.e. 16 different Intel C4004 
only one thing:
as a collector i prefer chip pictures from both sides (top and down) to see more details. (but most collector sites are showing only one side)

Great collection!!
It'd be better though to open all pages in the same window.

I had two sides posted before but that is allot of picture taking 
I still have to take pictures of all my 386 CPUs and higher... And I only made it to the 8088 on the main page. I still have 2 1/2 rows to go.
Maybe tomorrow I will get a few more posted.
Someday I will even add information about the chips like everyone else but for now I will just be happy to get the photos competed. 
Thanks Borris!
Lee

I had it that way originally but when I was going from chip to chip and I kept have to hit the back arrow everytime it and sometimes there was the big pause... So I just defaulted everything on the main page to open in a new window. I may change it back later...
Thanks Slava,
Lee

I updated the link.
By the way, when I was creating a thumbnail of your site logo (Picture6.jpg at the top) I noticed it's a 3740 x 577 300KB image that is scaled down by browser to 852 x 140. It's good idea to scale it manually in Photoshop or other graphics editor to 852 x 140 - this will make it smaller (and faster to download), and it will look better.

If you are serious about buying Photoshop, you may want to try http://gimp.org. It's free and can do almost as much.

You are right! Compared to your photos mine are enormous! Scaling them down a bit will have to be a later project  |

Thanks, I got there in under 5 years but it did cost me a little bit. I still have about 30% of my collection that I still have to take pictures of but the site is coming along.
I can probably help your collection if you have anything for trade. I have a lot of duplicates of some really rare chips.
