I used to have (or say I do have) one. But I really do not care..... I am pretty lazy to scan them (b/c the scanner is not mine and I have to use one at the department ) so even though I got them, sometimes I do not scan them and I use older scanned pictures (I have a couple in my RS gallery )
But also I sometimes like looking at "coming soon" sections b/c if I am watching some cels and I really want to see who got these cels soon

I originally had "steal" but I thought I'd better change it to "borrow". I know people who asked permission to use the image after they bought the cel.Startyde wrote:Heh, you guys and your "anti-borrowed pics" policies...
I never thought of using coming soon sections as a means of keeping track. I have an email draft that I use with the link. When it comes in, I simply get rid of that image and link. I like the idea of a coming soon section where you list what's coming with no pictures though.
Can you hear this fangirl squee?!

I used to have one...mostly to keep track of what was coming in...but I agree with the members who mentioned that it screws up the NEW ITEMS in RS.
I took it down recently. I now put things directly into their section.
EXAMPLE:
http://fetish4minx.rubberslug.com/galle ... iesID=7298
In my ARMITAGE section I have a COMING SOON...a NEW...and then the older items.
That way it shows that my armitage section has been added to. (COMING SOON). When the cel arrives, I re-scan it and add comments (NEW). After a week or two I take the "new" off the title and place it in chronological order in my gallery.
Sounds confusing...but it's really VERY simple.
Please note I'm in the process of changing my site to this new system, so not everything is perfect! ....yet!

That's what I do too. If I absolutely can't help wanting to add a certain cel early I just list it under whatever section it belongs but I put the title as *coming soon* and then add all the information when it actually comes.

Hmm I really dont care about having a coming soon section. I dont have one. But I do have to use the pictures of the cels the people are using to sell. Only because my scanner is really bad and makes the cel way to bright,an I cant get it to look normal agian. So it takes out the greatness of the cel. Also I think having a coming soon section for me is just to annoying. Because you have to post the cels under the coming soon section and the once you get the cel move it to where it really belongs (I just lazy)
But Im not saying I dont like looking at stuff people have coming in, Then seeing the changes once they get their cels. I think thats pretty nice.

I don't mind other people having a Coming Soon section at all, but I myself don't care for it.
So, I voted for the second option.

I guess I go with Baakay on this one. I like to know what I've got, and there have been times when I was disappointed in an item that I thought I'd bought and turned out to be something different from what I thought I'd ordered. (Yes, like others on this board, I've gotten photocopies when I thought I was buying original sketches.)
Then too, I've also been pleasantly surprised at lots that turned out to be much more interesting in person than as dealer's scans (such as my fold-out Emeraude sketch). So for lots of reasons, I keep my peace about what's coming until I know I have something worth displaying.

I like looking at other people's "coming soon" pages, because it's more consolidated that way, and then I don't have to look for the new ones in each series' section (yes, I'm lay-zeeeee :p ). But like others, I don't have a public "coming soon" page of my own, because it doesn't fit my website's scheme (and because I'm lay-zee :p).

I had one..for like 7 days
But it's hidden now, and just like Tex, I use it to keep track of whatever I have coming in
It did surprise me however how many people visited my "sneak preview" section when I had it up
