There is a wide range of avatars on this forum and I have often been wondering more about it. Would you mind sharing a larger image, what it is, why you picked it, have you changed it, and anything else about it.

I had these pictures of ammonites framed recently. I purchased them in a shop in Oxford and they are from a book by William Buckland. For some reason the photo keeps orientating itself incorrectly. No idea why.

I'm having a hard time finding any images of anything other than the outside/side view of a spinosaur pelvic bone. I'm trying to see what the bone looks like in general, but all too many times...WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too many times I'll spend forever unsuccessfully trying to come across pictures, images, or diagrams that show what a bone looks like from other angles than what you see be looking at the skeleton from generic angles, like this one. In some cases it's not TOO difficult, but even those common bones have areas that you can never see, unless you get totally lucky and happen across it, OR if there's maybe, hopefully some site/database that specifically shows what entire bones look like. I doubt that, but I know there's perfect diagrams floating around on the web, but I can't seem to find any *im just talking about dinos and other extinct animal bones. I'm sure there's plenty of sites with images of every conceivable angle of every bone from humans and common living animals, but I'm not looking for that kind of thing.

Whitening of fossils with ammonium chloride is a common and effective method to enhance the contrast for pictures. Here you can download a short "how to do video" : https://www.researchgate.net/publication/287444709_Whitening_fossils_with_ammonium_chloride Ammonium chloride is water soluble - the process is reversible (if the fossil tolerates rinsing with water). Have fun Thomas
