A quick question for everyone...

[olde_fashioned]

How many of you would be interested in color bars (or love bars, or whatever the heck they're called!) if I made them for various subjects? I've seen so many people using them, and I'd like to know if they'd be worth my time.

Here are two samples:





These are my first, but feel free to use them if you'd like. Just comment and credit as you would an icon, please! :-)

*laughs* Don't worry -- that won't happen! Wild horses couldn't keep me away. ;-P

Do you perhaps mean a certain "A.P."? If so then I'm glad to hear it.

No, I am not currently collecting those, but that doesn't mean I won't in the future. ;-P I am however interested in finding a matched set of all JA's major 6 works with Brock illustrations -- I don't suppose you know of a publisher?

I'm glad you found it, too! Enjoy C19 -- they're big North & South fans. ;-) Have you seen that yet, Mandy?

Adios!

Hi Elizabeth,

Bingo ! A. Pest has left. ;-)
Dents, London were the original publishers of JA's works with the Brocks
illustrations...I don't know if there has been any recent re-publishing of Jane's works with Brocks pics.
However, ebay and Abe often have the novels with Brocks pics published circa 1900, at different prices and different condition; if that is any help.
Just out of interest have you visited http//www.solitary-elgance.com ?
Heather L has an interesting showcase of
JA Brocks and info.
Glad you enjoyed your holdiay and have a good weekend. :)

Hey again Mandy,

This may sound very wicked...but I'm quite relieved! Mr. A.P. Troll was getting out of hand.

Thanks for the Brock info -- and yes I know about solitary elegance. Heather's great!

Ditto, and TTYL!

Hey again Elizabeth ~! Meant to say, I read Mrs Gaskell's Wives & Daughters and North & South ages ago. I took W&D on video out of my library, lovely series...an example of what AD gets right. :-) But have yet to view N&S.
Exactly so ! A. Pest behaved liked a troll. Nor did I appreciate Pest's ridiculous theories on subtext domineering ROP. ;-) Ah well, he's behind us now so won't mangle anymore group reads either. See you at ROP soon. :)

LOL! Yes, I'm not a fan of AD, but I am of his Emma and P&P! I loved W&D, but you simply must see N&S. He didn't write it, and I bet you'd like it too! Proceed to the nearest library/rental store -- heck, RUN, don't walk -- and snatch yourself a copy! ;-P

You know what they say online about A.Pests....."don't feed the trolls!"

TTYL and see you @ RoP too! :-D
