Improving Mindat.orgNew - by popular demand...

Go to Search Pages,

Select Photo Search

New field added allows searching of comments...

So you can find pseudomorphs, for example.

So, add Copper into mineral box, add 'pseudomorph' into the text field, and you'll find all copper pseudomorphs we have described as such.

Very usefull new feature.

Another way to use it:

Pierre LeRoch and me have made some photos of minerals from our friend Jean-Claude Leydet collection.

Just add 'Leydet' into Keywords description and you will see 24 photos, all from his collection.

Thanks, Jolyon.

Really great!

Very helpful to get an overview. I searched quartz and twin, and found that there are certain very liberal interpretations of what twinning is.

kind regards,

I love it.

Is there a way of doing the samething for a specific mine or mining district?

Say I want to see just the photos of minerals from the Tintic Standard Mine, in Eureka, Utah.

"Is there a way of doing the samething for a specific mine or mining district ?"

Guilty of never having looked up the manual !!

Hi Rick

To see just the photos for a specific locality, call up that locality page and click on the "Photo Gallery" button on the page - any photos of specimens from that site that have been entered into the database will come up as thumbnails. You can click on any of them to enlarge them.

I'm not sure, but I *think* the same is true for higher levels of the hierarchy where there are photos posted. For example, if you called up Titintic District and it is a highlighted name (not plain black type) there should be a "Photo Gallery" button to click on. I don't know if that will only get you photos attributed to the District - not a specific locality - or all the photos for all the localities listed under the District level of the menu.

Anyway, at least part of what you want is alresdy available: locality galleries.

Regards

Alan

If it is not wrongly spelt. (Check how many entries you find with "psuedomorph".)

Jolyon: would a fuzzy search or something like that be possible to also find such spelling mistakes?

Alan,

Thanks. Somehow I missed that button when I was trying to do it before.

Uwe,

An unambiguous (?) substring like "domor" or "epita" turns up most variations.

Rather than a fuzzy search, we should want a global find and replace function, or an integrated spell checker :-).

kind regards,

Dominik

Dominik, I agree! (I would guess there is in fact freeware for such things.)

27th Sep 2006 21:17 UTCDavid Von Bargen Manager

The spell checker is on my todo list.

For Eifel microminerals fans,

try a search with collector name as : Willi Schüller.

130 Stephan Wolfsried & Fred Kruijen top photos, amazing!!
