I do have more, but I can't upload them all; it's a decent bit of stuff. Also, I want to know if I should give any to researchers. Most of these are either from the Morrison Formation or Hell Creek. also 1 is from NY in these few anyway

Invest in a ruler or tape measure, and avoid taking photos with the specimens in hand. Place the specimens in a well lit area with no busy backgrounds, with pictures taken from directly above the specimens. You will need to number and possibly caption each of the photos if you wish identification assistance.

You can simply put a space between the posted photos and add some text. When editing your post, hit return after each image to create a space, and then you can type between the photos.

No 1 certainly looks like pieces of bone in a chunk of Morrison Fm sandstone.  Not enough there to ID.  

No 2 looks like the end of a crocoidian humerus... maybe a turtle

3...?

4... can we see pix of the other side as well as side views

5... nt a shoulder blade, but just a sliver of bone. Chunkosaur.

7 is soft shelled turtle, which is not found in the Morrison, but abundant in the HC.

7 is a rock. Not seeing bone textures.
