Generating any type of revenue would be tough as well...given the average price for entrance in to a museum can be anywhere from free to $2US(for adults). Just something to keep in mind.

I agree with Dimasalang. I was warned about this possiblity at the Antiques Road Show when it came into town.

However a virtual museum is an excellent idea for now and can be accessed by all. Many of my pieces were in the Macao exhibit and the others can be seen on this forum. (though posting them again for the virtual exhibit would be fine by me ).

A virtual museum sounds like a great idea. If there is anything in my collection that would be of interest just let me know and I will be more than happy to furnish pictures.
