Ouch - I forgot to add 4 new globular clusters to the glob guide...now they are in it. Two of the four were observed by Jimi and I last year with his 48". Namely they are Koposov 1 and Koposov 2.

Hopefully last update. I've enhanced all of my guides with a graphical cover page. And slightly enhanced the download page with mini graphics of each color. Let me know what you think. I was doing and thinking about it while putting in the finishing touches to my upcoming new book, Observing Variable Galaxies.'
