Guys, pictures are fine as when it comes to jewellery, seeing is much better than description. However, undated and uncaptioned picture links aren't that helpful. Members would like to know if they are recent or old pictures, and if possible the date and the event. If they are older pictures, there is a good chance they have already been posted.
Unlike some other websites, TRF threads do not disappear after a relatively short time. As time passes our threads become valuable resource libraries which is why it is not only helpful but important for as much information as possible to be given for each picture link. It is good posting etiquette and it saves members from having to ask.
As long as the old picture links don't become invalid there is no point in the repetitive posting of links to pics which already appear in these threads. Members with an interest will browse a thread from page 1. It's not as if no-one looks back beyond the previous page.
Thanks for everyone's cooperation in making the jewels threads as accurate, detailed and informative as possible.
