RYEBABY Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Apologies to everybody on this post, in my ignorance I blindly went hell for leather and rapidly posted too many posts. I was in such a rush I failed to even read the guidance notes at the beginning of the thread. Thank you to Bob for attempting to reign me in before I overdid it. Apologies once again for my poor etiquette. Best regards Rye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ak49 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Hi, fairly new here. Wondering if it was worth posting close up photos of the corners of a slabbed book, or if it's too difficult to tell? I know little about grading and was somewhat surprised by a grade I received -- I don't wish to contest it, I wish to understand what I missed. Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx There's no harm in adding as many photos as you feel necessary. Did you receive graders notes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was already getting spendy so I started cost-cutting, but if they're usually worth it I'll do in the future.

I believe notes are free with books you submit yourself. I'd have another look at your submission and see if the link is there maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They gave the exact same notes for every comic submitted, and since the grades all varied the notes gave no insight/value. It did say I could pay for, what I imagine, are actual detailed notes... I posted the pics, but someone said on another thread not to post encapsulated books, so I understand if I don't get feedback. I don't want to open the case tho. If I sell it I hope whoever gets it ends up with a better grade if they do examine it closer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief1332 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Please Grade My.... Showcase #6 Got in a hurry and did not notice shadow on cover pic. Snapped one in the bag. Small losses on few edges and corners. Staples are clean. Interior colors look nice. Page color...? idk, cream or tan...? Smells like a 60 year old book that spent little time in the basement. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

podochigae Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Hello, have the tutorials for posting links to images from Photobucket or Flickr been updated? The tutorials are from 2014. Wondering how to post a picture and if someone clicks on it, it opens a window and then the user can click that again to zoom in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jitasaw Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) Only have a second to post, and I don't know if it's been suggested- I've mentioned many times that the OP shouldn't mention what they feel the grade is for the book they're posting. May be no big deal, but I like to have a clean palate when grading Speed Test. Edited December 5, 2020 by jitasaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to post, and then see what the OP was thinking, to see how close or far we might be in our opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TappanZee Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Hi, I'm having trouble posting .jpegs to this forum. I'm getting a -200 error message, and Google is no help in explaining what that means. I converted these images to .jpegs from HEIF photos, so maybe that's the problem, but I would love to know if there is a workaround. Thanks!
