Book collection challenge [56k friendly]

Post by The Grim Squeaker »

This is Post my donating over a 100 books over the past 7 months, due to lack of space.

These are almost all of the books in my house, although you should disclude about 30% of the books in hebrew since a lot of my books are in my sisters rooms.
This does not include: Books in my grandparents house, books that I have donated, Books from the local American International school library or my regular school Library (where I have read over over [Very roughly] 50 and 75 books respectively, although the regular school library has books on a very low level or a dozen more books scatter over the house or about 25 mythology books that I forgot to take pictures of on the piano:

About 5/6 of the books in my parent library that I've read [Sorry for the blur].

Blame Ace for daring me to upload pics of my whole collection:P mrgreen:.
I'll post the pictures rather than links once I resize them [these quality versions took about 1.5 hours to upload to photobucket].

I'm guessing that yes ;) In what other ways would nerdy teens waste their time?

Multiple Times, I read my favourites (A few dozen] over 6-8 times each, but there isn't one that I have'nt read at least once or twice (Usually 3 or more times if it's a good book).

Which? Some are of the same long bookshelf only of different parts of it.

I'll upload a 640x480 inlined version [Of all the pictures] tommorow once I'm done editing and re-sizing it, as long as it isn't a breach of bandwidth, ok?

*dies*

I'd attempt to at least try for respectable second here, if it weren't for my lack of digital camera-ness.

But that collection's even more impressive than it looked initially.....

hmmm, thought you said it was? Ah well, jsut clink on the links, I reccomend the firefox extension LINKY for opening multiple links/tabs/pictures at once, in case nobody feels like slogging through each link.

You should have seen it before my donations and clean up, the table was 4-5 books thick and a sea of pages, as were the bookshelves and 2-3 stacks of 12+ books scattered over the floor :P .
I'd attempt to at least try for respectable second here,
use a phone, if it makes you feel better my grandfather's collection is more than 4-5 times as large as this :twisted: , so you might edge in for second if you exclude anyone related to the 3d degree from me.
[Not counting an old friend of mine from England with almost 2/3or more as many books, although estimates are hard with him due to his books being shared among the whole family.] We have a lot more books in the house apart from mine after all :P

No, a bunch of 'em are just the same pics, or at least that's how they showed up on my end.

Odd, I'll re-upload 64-x480 versions once I get back from my test today, which ones are repeats?
