Hi Andrew

It depends. Server space isn't likely to be a problem - we have lots of space. The number of images, their dimensions, and how much editing they need are all factors. Nearly every image that winds up with a turkotek.com URL has been resized, renamed, and many have been cropped to remove extraneous parts of them. All of that takes time, lots of images take lots of time.

We're an all volunteer site; neither Filiberto nor I get any income from editing and administering it. Unless there's an educational or recreational payoff, I don't take on big projects, and creating repositories for various genres of rugs doesn't float my boat.

To give you a straight answer, I'd have to know how many image files there are and how they'd be coupled to whatever educational content goes with them. If it's just pages of images of pieces that Rageth analyzed, with his estimated dates as captions, I'm not interested in taking it on.
