Google have created new toy. This one will take you on a virtual trip around some of the world's great art galleries and/or let you look at lots of the paintings. I think it is great. You being another person with an interest in the visual arts might well enjoy it too

Now if only we could get the McKays scanned at such a similar resolution!

Hullo Norman, your message is welcome but a little unclear. I am not sure whether your intention is to say my scanning technology is rubbish compared to Google, or that you are such a fan of McCays that you would like to see more and better, or here was an opportunity to get a link to your own Frank Bellamy checklist website. I am in sympathy with all or any of the above. Bonne chance.

Hi Arthur - just spotted your reply. What I meant was - wouldn't it be great if Google scanned all McKay's work at the highest resolution exactly as they do the Great Masters paintings in their Art Project - and thanks for the encouragement regarding the website

Hullo Norman,
yes that would be great. Like you I suspect, I could give them a list of other artists to scan too.
Oddly enough was exchanging mail with David Jackson about your site this very morning.
Best,
Arthur
