You can see the beginning here: http://www.desperationmorale.com/products/hatten-in-flames/. Hopefully, other new entries will appear over the next month or two, or however long it takes until the Desperation Morale World of ASL compendium is caught up.

You'll notice something missing here. As the photos have been the big sticking point in updating the site, I have for now decided to bypass that whole issue and post entries without photos already accompanying the text (something I have not done before). When I am through, I may go back and add photos, or I may add photos slowly over time. As before, I urge people to contribute photos; if I do decide to use any of your photos, I will credit you in the relevant product entry.

Just out of curiosity, why is it so difficult to post photos? Is it the website interface itself or the time it takes to get good photos? I really don't need photos on DM. I'm just pleased that updates are being posted again.

Taking a lot of product photos and processing them takes many hours. It doesn't have anything to do with the website itself.

Can you reference the photos at Gameboard Geek with a link? Let others do the work.

I'm willing to try to photograph AP14 if no one else has volunteered. Unfortunately, everything else I own is punched and filed.

Thanks for all your efforts, Mark. Much appreciated by this relative newcomer. Without you and Patrick Ireland, I don't know that I'd be playing ASL.

People who want to look up a game on Boardgamegeek can do that on their own.
On BGG, you can create your personal gallery, which is not automatically linked to a given game.
I have posted images there to have an online link.

Triplicate, duplicated over priced and in some cases quadrupled product repackaged and sold as new products with over inflated prices, some playtested in the late 90s or not.

Perhaps a blanket "only buy if someone you trust recommends them". That has been my policy for years now. -- jim
It was not so much what to write but whether to include new products at all, include them but have no write-ups, have write-ups of a selected few only, or something else. I really don't want to cough up any more money buying Critical Hit products like I have been doing just for the website.
