Hi Thomas,
I think that Vince just deserves it. No thanks required at all, and your words are too kind Thomas 
Pardon any design flaws. Vince's work is fantastic.
It is my humble way to contribute for the world to see his work.
Slàinte & Viva !!!

The only remark I can make regarding the first of Viking swords (with the plain iron hilt). Again I say.

Hi guys,
Thanks for the feedbacks. Is the reading clear? I use Verdana font as it is my web favorite font.
Jeremy, what is it about the Viking sword?
Appreciate all inputs

Hi guys,
I was alerted that some people were viewing funny white @ @ @ on the dark blue black ground.
Please check http://www.arscives.com/vevans/encoding_info.htm
I did not notice that the HTML encoding was set to Chinese Big 5 but the issue is now solved. There's also an indication on how to set your browser (Explorer in this case) to Western European. Mine was set to Chinese Big 5 which allows for view in both English and Chinese languages.
It has been corrected. Apologies to everyone.

Hi Russ,
We were posting at the same time
Most kind of you. Nothing that outstanding really. As I said before, I am not that proficient and did not notice what was happening.
BTW did you notice any of those @ @ @ in the background when you first saw the site?
Cheers,
Antonio

I have been hoping to see a new website for Vince Evans for a long time. It was worth the wait.
Constant and true.

I just looked at Vince's new website. Very nice job! I also got my new copy of Blade magazine, and there is an excellent article on Vince and Grace. Great to see master artists and fine people get the recognition they deserve. Well done Vince and Grace!
Best regards,
Ron

Thanks Taylor,
I just did the website. I did not do the swords
It is mostly sure that Vince has done countless swords, but possibly not all are photographed.
But the remarkable thing is the superb quality he imparts to each piece. I would love to know how he made out the way the handle is tied in this Chinese Willow Leaf Saber
I love the picture and its understated quality.

Hello Antonio,
My unclear post is simply admiration of this fine sword. Thanks. Jeremy

Hi Jeremy.
I see what you mean. Sometimes written colloquial English can be misunderstood. Thanks for clarifying

Antonio,
NICE job on the website. Is Vince going to be using this one
over his older Picture Trail website in the future?

Hi Alex
Going on what Vince recently told me ......
He will continue to use his Picture Trail site for eductional purposes, as well as posting things he does, as the site is easy for us 'non-computer' guys to work , etc!
I (Mac) view the new one as his professional / official site !
Two sites are better than one, anyway *g* Mac
