Can you translate that for me please? :)

We sold $6,000 worth of  these in 5 home games.  (Digital Montages)

Here is one of our displays in front of our photo booth on game day, naturally these pics look better with matting and a frame...

Looks very nice.  Sounds like a fun and profitable business to be in. :)

Don't listen to mr humbug.  

Out of curiosity, how do you handle printing?  I assume these are digital pics photoshopped together.  Do you have some sort of fancy glossy printer at home, or do you take the digital files to a print shop?

sweet!  Just make sure you don't push him too hard...It's very easy for kids to get burnt out on a sport when they start at an early age....

Rip-  Are you a former athlete?

Hell no! I played some baseball and basketball, but I was too skinny to do much else.

FWIW, he pushes ME! :lol

I didn't want him to play football to begin when his obsession with football took hold about 2 years ago, strictly due to my own selfishness, I knew it was a big parental committment (5 nights a week, 2 hour practices in August, then Sept/Oct/Nov are 3 nights a week, this does not include games) but then I came down off my horse and realized its about them, not me!:aok

Ya Slim, they play both sides of the ball. :aok

Excellent! I used the new Kata element cover when shooting with the long lens, couldn't be happier!

I actually used my little umbrella (without the Kata cover, due to the flash attachment) for the Champion Team pictures in the endzone!  It worked like a charm!

Too freaking busy overall.  Maybe you can do something about the transitions?  You need something to pull the montages together.


Gordon's,

Bottom center picture and bottom right look great.  Very dynamic, real sense of movement.

Top left, is he trying to mate with a smurf?

Top center and top left look to posed.  If you are going to have posed shot, have a posed shot.

Bottom right, I don't know looks like he is about to hurt himself.

Font, gayest ever.  Cripes, it's a sports montage.  Not an invitation to here is pan-flute recital at the Conservatoir.


Reily's


Let's look at the same two shots from a billion angles.....no.

But at least he's got good lettering.
