The AKA online gallery will be extended when people offer high 
quality pictures of the fish. I am hopeful that as the slide sales 
program is revived (and it will be) we will be able to use most of 
those issues, linking them to the store so that people can buy the 
actual slides. You will realize that the resolution of online images 
is relatively low and does not compare to an actual slide.
