    Hi there. I have always loved antiques. Would check out the local shops but never actually get into it. No I find myself in the position of digging up all these pieces and I know nothing!

    I hope this is a good place to learn and your patience will be appreciated. Some of these items will be kept but I feel the vast majority will be sold. Unfortunately most of them I know nothing about and haven't created a love for them just yet. Perhaps through research things may change.

    I am wondering if I can post a link to the one drive with all the pieces for people to look at and hopefully help me identify them.

    Hi Michelle and welcome :)!

    Most people here won't click a OneDrive link. Plus, it would be better to create your posts in the respective forum for which it belongs.

    I'm reposting a set of instructions courtesy of @Aquitaine to help you get started with uploading/posting your photos:

    Each image MUST be UNDER 1 MB....
    There are instructions on site here on how to reduce the size of your image, if that is the problem......you are allowed up to 10 images per post!!! Here are some links to the instructions:

    Try emailing them to yourself as "medium" size, they should then be under 1 MB!

    If on the computer:
    https://www.antiquers.com/threads/posting-a-thread-and-uploading-pictures.15990/

    If on an iPhone:
    https://www.antiquers.com/threads/resizing-photos-on-i-phone.35097/

    And if on an Android phone:
    https://www.antiquers.com/threads/using-an-android-phone-for-pics-on-antiquers.41709/

    As an added note, when you have your photos LISTED, but BEFORE you hit POST, please click on the wording that says to "INSERT EVERY IMAGE AS FULL IMAGE" !! That way, we're not clicking on little thumbnails, but get to see all of the images full sized!! Thanks! Remember, it takes a bit for MOST new members to get the hang of it, but it's really quite simple once you get used to it!!!" Have fun, and if you have questions, PLEASE ASK US!!!

    Welcome!
    (It is OK to put several items in a single post, if they are similar, and if you number or otherwise help people to refer to them; like several silver items in one, several pieces of furniture in another, and so on)
