I have been given many icons of the Theotokos over my years as an Orthodox Christian and would like to know what they are entitled. I have a scanner and can upload files of them if there is anyone who might be able to help me identify them. The nuns that gave them to me are not readily accessible by email, although I will try them too. In addition I would like to know if there is an icon discussion community, both for icons and iconographers. If anyone knows of one, please let me know. Thank you

Dear Olympiada,
Olga is very knowledgeable with icons and will be a big help I'm sure.
You may also like to have a look at a site which lists and tells the story of Mother of God (http://www.oca.org/FStheotokos.asp?SID=4&Month=March) icons for every month of the year, some of them with pictures.
In Christ
