Here it is, correct size:

EDIT; Just checked and for some weird reason the first itemimage replacement I sent you looks a bit fuzzy. I've uploaded it again, just now 9:30 a.m.

EDIT: and then I noticed that the elementsofconchology_1901.jpg is also fuzzy, so I uploaded them both again at 10:50, (zip file same name). The original cover isn't fuzzy at all. This happens when I downsize the psd file instead of saving the psd as a jpg in original size, then downsizing the jpg. I try so hard not to do that!

I'd like to claim the Short Story Collection 77 cover, but cant since my name hasn't been removed from the Claims Board for Snowy Evening, which was "caught and linked" two days ago. I don't quite understand the process, Anne. I presume this is not automated, but could you please explain how our names are removed.

I've preclaimed the prophet, if you want to discuss the claims system again please use the chat thread

Caught - and linked. I wonder whether he actually saw the shipwrecks or just made it up with the facts he had. It looks good, I was just wondering.

yes one would have to wonder where the artist was actually positioned to have painted this from life. And then he would have to paint in the storm

the colours would never stick to the canvas. No, I think this is done from memory.

Thanks for the claim. I did repost my question in the chat thread, with an additional query.
