Hi, all.

I am getting requests from magazines for photos of P/Rs
in action. Writers want to show their readers what a
work P/R looks like.

And I would like to use that sort of photo on our web
site as well.

So, if you have a photo of a working P/R or if you're
willing to create one, and if you'd like it to show up
in a magazine, please let me know.

And if you have photos that you'd like to allow us to
use on our web site, please send those along as well.

And one more request: I did some data mining on our
web access log and it seems that folks can't get
enough of photos of complete bikes. So if you have
a photo, like a side shot, of a P/R that you'd like to
share, pls send it along and I'll put it in our gallery.
And if you include a block of text with it, I'll put
the text next to the photo.

Cheers!

Matthew

Do they have to be setup for front loading? Mine is setup for rear my commute to work and back and it's setup for rear load with my Dutch panniers. I'll take as many photos are you would like but I don't know if these would be useful?

Good question.

Let's go with front loading for now.

Thanks, Ben.

I'll add my two cents about photo credits and web design. As a former photojournalist (from the world's first and foremost school of journalism), I think that web design looks very cluttered with putting the credit under the photos. I'd like if someone programmed a credit bar that appears when you put the cursor on top of the photo. It seems like it would be easy to do (like Flcker does for enlarging pics). Just seems like a neat way to achieve the goals of clean design and recognizing the people who take the pictures.

That's a good idea.

They are kind of busy with the credits underneath.

I'll look at doing a mouseover. I do it for the buttons on the editor.

Good idea, Lance!

(I wonder if others will like it?)
