 This is the image catalogue of the site. All images of the site will be catalogued and listed with this site as a starting point.
-Images are listed by Categories. There are three main groups of categories :
+At present just over 56000 images are listed in this section.
-*Images by country, to look for arms of a certain town/country
-*Collector's items, to browse through all images of heraldic postcards, stamps, tobacco cards etc
-*Religious heraldry, to look for arms of religious institutions
-In total over 65.000 images will be listed in the catalogue. At present just over 56.000 are listed.
+Images are listed by categories, as shown below.
-As this new version of the site is still under development, an image may be found, but no information page linking to it. This may be because page has not yet been transferred from the [http://www.ngw.nl old site]. If you find such an unlinked image [[contact]] me and I will upload the page to the new site.
+The thumbnail section can be used in several ways:
+* To search for a specific image in a country using the category '''[[:Category:images by country|Images by country]]'''
+* To browse through the different categories of collector's items with thousands of images
+* To look for religious or educational heraldry using the specific categories
-Also not all collector's item files are directly linked from any of the pages, as sometimes there are hundreds of images belonging to one album or series. On the information pages only the series and some examples are mentioned. But if you find an unlinked page, use the menu on the left to browse through the specific section of collector's items to find the appropriate pages.
+Another main use is to look for coats of arms with a specific charge of shield division using the category '''[[:Category:Themes|Themes]]'''.
