they re heavily watermarked, how can they finish on ebay? . Beside, im posting pictures that are online for anyone who wants to see them, im not posting pictures hidden in the archives.

Yes i have of the rest of the sisters and Ernie. I didnt found them, it was Minnie from foros dinastia who did it. They re awesome!

I believe it is 1911 photo session - I have somewhere fuller one. Or at least, it had been posted previously.

I am mistaken - it ws taken actually in 1906. I am sorry.

Amazing photos, Katenka -- well done!

You welcome, Nena!

Well, i read in other forum that it was forbidden to post pictures from  the hessian archive here. Its that right? because if it is, im sorry i didnt know about it.

Thats what I meant - of course it is not your fault but you see not anybody should get access to those photos.
Perhaps the moderators can remove the posts! Would appreciate it!

Well, the hessian digital archives are avalaible for anyone who has a little knowledge of german, so, if they dont see the pictures here, they will get them in the bilders.

And moderators, if post pictures of this archive is forbidden, please post a warning about it. That would be very helpful.

I think all of us know about existing such a soft as Photoshop ? This soft can easily help you to prepare the image for the ebay if we speak about the watermarks.

I don't know about forbidding of posting here the pictures from the Hesse on-line Archive but in this case I am with Thomas.

Hmm..so sad to know that even the pictures with big "APF Forums" mark can be edited and sell as prints on ebay *sighs*

Are there any photos anywhere of Alix smiling so her teeth can be seen? I know it sounds a bit silly, but I have always wondered what her teeth looked like! I just saw Nicholas for the first time yesterday in a photo someone had put up..nothing like I imagined. lol!

I ran across this image and was startled to see a toothy Alex...it was new for me at least.
