Glad to be here. I did notice things slowing down over there after the news and thought I would come here to stay a part of the community just in case MT does go.
I am glad you caught the spelling error (if there was a way to fix it I would haha, it was pretty late when I wrote that up and also forgot to have the faction in the info.

I…[Read more]

Thank you! Though I wouldn’t bother with that because I’m doing the same thing haha. I’m trying to figure out a solution that will get me the images without downloading every picture one by one. Eventually I hope to have a database similar to the one at MT up on my site here.

@captainjack Thank you so much for signing up!!
Ben-
Of course, I wanted to stick around even if Miniature Trading does not.
When I get some time I am going to start collection the images of all the Pirates miniatures from MT, I can pass them your way when I have them all (maybe organized as well).-
