Well, we (actually, my sister) lists about 10 to 15 of our prints a week.
Some weeks we sell nothing, others, like last week, we sell 4 or 5.  Just hope
that something you list tickles someone's fancy, I guess.

In terms of web sites, we set up our own.  Well, actually my sister did.
There's some software out there to do it, and once you get it set up, it's
actually quite easy (apparently).  If you click on the "urban caravan" hyper
link at the top of this e-mail, you'll see it, just to get an idea of what can
be done.

So far, we've only sold a few directly from the site;  probably about 5 sell
on eBay for every one that we sell from the site.  Not making much money, but
it's kind of fun.  And, if you do look at the site, the European and North
African stuff is hers.  Taken with nothing more than one Yashica FX3 with a
standard 50mm lens.  For someone who until very recently has only pulled out
her camera once a year, I think she has a wonderful, intuitive eye.

regards,
frank
