Thumbs up

I spent some time on the site, and the exhibition is truly impressive. The pieces in the collection exeeded my expectations, in fact. Bravo, Antonio! You are taking orders for the catalogue, are you not?

Well done, my friend.

I'm still wading through it, but "extraordinary" just starts to describe it. Not only the exposition is thought-provoking, educational, extremely enjoyable and, why not to say it, very bold in its approach, but the presentation through the website it is truly an "alternative" exposition by itself and represents an excellent use of a communication tool to expand the scope of such an event. Its specific design and layout speaks of the care invested in it so people like us, all over the world, can partake of the immense work put forth by all those involved.
For this, Antonio, many, many thanks to you and all those have made it possible, and my sincere congratulations for what I’m sure is, yet another, success.

Good morning my Friend,

Here am I awake at 3:22 AM.
Guess that when one is exhausted one sleeps badly.
Well, the pieces are all the participants merit.
Thank you for your kind words.
Check your email please.

Thank you my friend

Your words are most encouraging. I hope to be able to take detailed pictures of the exhibits inside the display cases with a special set up, for the black background makes the glass act like a mirror.

I thought that it would be nice to create a *behind the scenes* section because it would be educational on the amount of work involved.

I will upload tomorrow my conference about swords being art. I noticed the second row of the Menu showed less people reading it, but nonetheless it is very encouraging to see that the homepage has received more than 600 hits in the first 24 hours

Your words are most kind and encouraging. Thank you

Outstanding, Antonio! I particularly love seeing photos of the smiths next to their work: it's nice to put a face with the names. Many of the featured smiths are new to me, and it's exciting to be introduced to them.

I'm very interested in a catalogue as well.

Best,
Andrew

Thank you Andrew,

I knew the official website could not show everything, so I built an alternative one.
I'm sure you know why is the reason for my delay with other things .
The Brazilian smiths are a great addition. I must refrain to show any personal preferences, but the way we managed to display would not be possible if we had more entries. Some smiths didn't bother to reply to the invitations. I am so grateful for that or we would be in trouble.

Shadow of Leaves are selling our catalogues up to a quota of 50. Right now the quota is nearing completion. Go and email Michael Crampton for a quick hit.

Check your PM in 5 minutes time

Antonio:

I can't even imagine how busy you've been in recent months. Proper placement of priorities is often difficult, but always necessary. It's something I struggle with every day.

Your hard work is evident. Congratulations! I'm sure we'll be seeing more from the Brazilian smiths.

I got your PM. Thanks.

Best,
Andrew
