Who's maintaining the posting site at http://www.kl.net/scans/ ?

I'd just like to thank you for your efforts and commend you on the
fine service you're providing. Already I've built several sets which I
couldn't for over 15 years. Thanks!
I tried to send you scans of set 918, but the person who scanned them
for me (a kind soul; I'm in his debt) only had access to a B&W scanner
at the time. To help out a little, I manually colored the images,
bringing them closer to their original colors. Is this acceptable for
your posting protocol? Or do you prefer non-retouched scans only?

Thanks again!

I am responsible for maintaining the site. It's only been up
for about 10 days, and has already delivered over 30,000 images
(not counting aborts, directories, and server not modified-reloads).

You are welcome to upload scans for any set not already on the
site, as long as it's "out of print". If it's b+w, that's better
than nothing. If someone has a color scan, they can always
upload it later (please do). You should NOT upload re-touched
scans, as they are technically "altered", and may violate
some legal stipulation somewhere. If you only have b+w, upload them
as b+w, and people can have the fun of figuring out the colors
from catalog scans etc. I did receive some files for 0918, but
it diddn't seem complete (only files 1-9 and part of 10).
If you wish to resend, please send non-modified scans only.

Thanks for the response! I'll try resending the complete B&W series,
and we'll see what happens after that...

I see some of my scans (retouched by me) uploaded without my
permissions, but that's ok, I don't mind.
I don't have the time to do it, but if somebody would voulenteer to
upload the rest from my page, I would be thankful.
I will soon close down my homepage and totally rearrange it.
The scans I want uploaded is at:
http://home2.swipnet.se/~w-20413/scans/
Don't forget to remove the 'L' before uploading to the other site.
