    Good Day Dave, Thank you so much for your legacy of images for Dungeon Tiles and Poster Maps. Your DT color coding idea is excellent. Do you want Promo Tile Photos?

    I have recently restarted an old project to inventory and catalog all my Dungeon Tiles. All 21 Sets (times 2!) and most Promos. About six 9L Really Useful Boxes. OK fine, I discovered one set that I only had one set of tiles but some sets I have three sets.

    I write to you because it is possible that your DT2 Arcane Corridors inventory image is wrong. It looks like it is a duplicate of DU2 Arcane Towers. The gallery snap shot looks correct, but the summary page here, , has an image that may be mapped wrong. I suspect your computer has the right image somewhere, since you have an image but…..
    I think this eBay auction ,, may have the right images (unpunched.)

    I don’t think your website liked how I abbreviated websites.

    Correct DT2 Images Links- dmdavid.com/tag/a-complete-list-and-gallery-of-dungeon-tiles-sets/

    Incorrect DT2 Image Links- dmdavid.com/dt-arcane-corridoors/

    I found your DT2 images Uunder Gallery) and they are better than the ebay auction I was trying to tell you about.
