i dont understand how using a picture uploaded to facebook that has a fat water mark on it as my avatar is a violation of personal property when the its being flaunted around all over the place already.

Dude kartman i apologize if you feel wronged by me using that pic and not paying for it but its kinda misleading.


the picture itself may be your property but whats in it belongs to me.



P.S. -i cant dish out 50 right this very moment but if your willing to wait maybe a week tops id love to give you my lunch money cuz that photo is pretty sick.

man i think im in the wrong business.......

Here's the deal for next year...PM if you want me to drive your truck and all you guys that don't want to pay for pics can take some shots of me getting after it!!! You will get to see your truck in all its glory and get free pics out of it that you can put your own watermark on.

How can you say no to that?!?!

I'll even do it for free!!!

I am more than happy to pay a photographer for their work. the price is the price. I will purchase some from all of the photographers that got some shots of my truck. Why can't we all just get along?:cheers:

Guys, ENOUGH PLEASE with the bitching and complaining about photo prices. It's been said, let's move on.

Time for a reality check: Kartman's prices are not THAT high. He is priced right within industry standards for events like this.

The saying, "don't hate the player, hate the game" has never been more appropriate.

I have paid $30-$50 for digital copies of pics from road races and half-marathons that I have run. Consider the difference between setting up a tripod and snapping photos of sweaty runners for a few hours...or traveling half way across the country for a full weekend event.

Then it takes time and money to upload the photos, watermark them (everyone does this), edit them, categorize them, etc. Airfare costs money, food costs money, camera equipment costs money, photo printers cost money, server space costs money.

God forbid an ambitious, talented business man would attempt to make a profit so he can make a living.

I'm not saying you have to like the prices or even buy the photos, but don't represent FRF in this way...it's not how we roll.
