A lot of other advertisers here have done great things for the sport. Perhaps they should all get to advertise for free?

Steve,
work it out with Tim because not only are his pictures great but also he himself is a huge informal supporter of this site. I know Tim fairly well and he is always talking about this site at poker runs and in all the performance circles.

If i'm understanding this correctly it was only the pics of the LIVE broadcast and party?

firstly if they didnt want pics taken and put on a forum, they shouldnt have allowed cameras in those areas. Tim has a right to offer for sale his pics. The watermark is to protect his intelectual propertys as no one else can copy the pic and sell it for profit.

secondly,His pics were taken in a public event therefore he has the right to do with them as he pleases, if someone wants one, they have a choice as to wether they want to pay for it or not.

thirdly burgers and fries/ie slandrew ie andrew realtor has done nothing except slam people and encite anger, I feel that he is more of a detrimate to this site than tim's pics. speaking ones opinions and disagreeing is one thing.

Totally agree.....

Yet, he's allowed to stay and continue his useless banter and personal attacks

Watch for more here....

Sharkey takes some great shots. But what I don't get is ... instead of asking him to remove them, was there even an offer made to be a paid advertiser in order to allow them to remain posted?

I understand business is business, but I'm sure something could have been done to rectify the situation.

I vote for Sharkey becoming a paid advertiser and leaving the pics up ... business is business ... and Tim, if all else fails, free is good

I agree! I think the only problem is the watermarking. It's the same reason why we're not allowed to post classified adds for our boats and have to pay for the add.

I remember some other photographers/businessmen who had their threads deleted, pictures removed and in some cases were banned for trying to market their services without being a paid advertiser.

I wish it was free to advertise because I would be advertising all over the place!
