johnny you could try doing what i've started doing. when someone attaches a good quality pic to their shore report just right click on it click copy, minimise the page to get back to your desktop, right click and choose paste and you will now have the pic to send to any folder in your computer, dead easy and if you go through all the old shore reports it won't be long before you have a comprehensive species guide. it has been a valueable resource for me anyway, good luck :wink:

I'm making one up at the mo ,nearly finished ,just have to resize a few photos and then hopefully mr crow will do some fancy stuff to make it work on the site . basically photos and info on key features to look for .
If someone shows you a mark to fish, respect it and dont pass it of as one of your own, dont tell every man and his dog about it.
