I was watching a repeat of StarTalk's (National Geo 2015 -?) 3rd season episode with William Shatner [original airdate: December 19, 2016] when they showed two charts;

1). The Periodic Table of Fictional Minerals— English:



2). The Periodic Table of Fictional Chemical Elements — Spanish:



Useful to know so as to use for proper terminology. Wilipedia™

List of Fictional Elements, Materials, Isotopes and Subatomic Particles:

List of Discredited Substances

These are the largest versions I could find. Hopefully Bud can turn these into smaller versions for ASF and can either make or find larger versions a la the enlarged and improved magazine articles (e. g. Starlog).

Since paying a large sum of money (a four-digit annual figure) to have All Sci-Fi installed on a Dedicated Server to insure both its future and it's reliability, there is virtually no limit to what Bud can do! Cool

As for the images you posted, may I offer a correction. The images above are your 700 pixel wide versions. I have done as you requested. The members can now click on them and see much larger versions.

Your Imgur account provided me with both the 700 pixel "display" images shown above AND the 1,049 pixel "readable" images. It was easy for me to embed the url's of the large versions within the small versions (as you asked me to do in your PM).

I simply used the template below from a Word document I created and pasted in the url's from your Imgur account containing both the BIG and SMALL versions (replacing those words in the template with the actual URL's).

[url=BIG][img]SMALL[/img][/url]

Child's play, my dear girl. Try it sometime yourself. It's easy!

And now, in your post above, just click on the image displayed in the post to see the big one on Imgur, and then zoom in as close as you want. Very Happy
