anyone think it would be of interest to have another page on this site so memebers could donate scans of 45's, 45 picture sleeves, cassingle sleeves or cd singles inserts..........just a thought.......

That's a GREAT idea, Ed. (Though I don't have a scanner at the moment... but I've been thinking about getting one.)

Is that sarcasm? We still don't have a designated area for P/S scans.

I think it would be a fantastic idea! I personally love cover art, using iTunes and iPod to listen to my music "on the go".

For the last couple of years, I have been searching for picture sleeve scans for all my "45 rpm singles" for which I've made MP3s (that I listen to on the bus, at the gym, what have you). And I mean artwork for the SINGLE, not the corresponding LP. There's a number of websites out there that allow you to upload and download a picture, as well, ebay contains tons of scans (sleeves, 45 labels, etc.). Sometimes, I will use the LP scan for a single if I can't find an appropriate single scan.

I'd be interested to see what others have in this area. My challenge is not owning the singles - I have to find scans from others via the Internet. I've amassed near 7000 now, with something for every top 20 song from 1961 to 1979, with lesser coverage into the 80s, 90s and 00s.

I have looked into the idea of having a separate section of the chat board for scans of picture sleeves and record labels and unfortunately if this chat board is to remain subscription free, it is not possible as I am charged by the amount of data on this web site and the amount of data is very high at the moment due to the existing scans. In fact I am going to have to ask the current scanners to cut down on the number of scans they post unless it is absolutely necessary to prove a point.
