Topic title: How do I make white paint colour less white?

Bear in mind that if you paint a light colour over a darker one, it will appear bluer. It is called the turbid medium effect. So you have to slightly warm the overpaint colour. It is trickier than it sounds to match colours, and really you need to experiment mixing different paints till you get it right.

Has anyone ever come across miniature cutlery, scissors etc marked "Mecast", and do they know where and when they were made?

I thought I'd tried that, but will give it another go. Thank you.

Topic title: Help to use the DHP&P site

The only trouble is, if I do that, I lose all the useful things I have on there too. Guess I'll have to use a different browser. Any update on the log in stuff?

Topic title: Help to use the DHP&P site

Although I can access the website on my iPad, on the computer (where all my photos are) it still says you are down for 'gremlins' and I can't get it to reboot. Any suggestions? Also I have found that you still have to log in every time you use the site, which I thought they were going to sort out. Help please. Liza.

Topic title: Back to all things dolls' house

A dear friend has given me two beautiful bodies complete with arms and legs, but no heads. She said she had been looking for heads for them for about fifty plus years but given up hope of finding any so passed them on to me. Both are slightly bigger than doll's house scale and one is a Kister with a wooden body and beautiful china limbs. The other is a headless Grodnertal. I don't suppose I will be any luckier than her , but if anyone ever hears of a head looking for means of locomotion, please let me know. I only mention it on here as I am always looking out for info on small dolls too.

Topic title: For sale album

Really' it's a bit confusing to have the for sale place at the top but the items for sale being in the photo albums. Is there any way of making this clearer?

Topic title: Welcome to the new Dolls' Houses Past & Present website!

An extra plea, for when you update the odd thing, maybe tomorrow? Please can you add a category for food? I don't think having it as an entry in 'Identity parade' would mean anyone wanting to research it would find it, unless they had noticed new photos being added. I know you have added the tagging, but I have no idea how this works, and would it guide people there?

It would be great (for lazy people like me) if we didn't have to keep going in, and it could actually remember us.
