Here is the new layout for posting cues to my website for 2010. I wanted to go with a cleaner, classier look. Check these out and let me know your thoughts.

Hey Jamie,
I do prefer this type of collage for your site than the other one. I think the way pics are being displayed in the collage shows the cues a bit better.

If you did your's like mine,
It would be like having Beetlejuice as your salesman...

That's funny Alton... you do some great collages.
Thanks for your input Tony and Jimmy. I wish I had time to update all my images.
Photos
You got it! Expose for the highlights, let the shadows fall where thy may.

Jamie,
Looks real good. I always get requests for entire cue photos. I try to sneak them in somehow.
Are you scanning the cues? Unless it's your software they look like they were scanned. I get scans from Mark for cues, I try and take photos. There are some definite advantages to the scans, the image doesn't lose focus on the ends.. or I just suck at pics.. which could be the case.
Believe me after 15 years of screwing with what's best, I think I'll wait till computers are 3d and get the next generation of camera.
One thing I think about doing is making a traversing camera on a little ball screw and a cue holder that rotates. So I can make a little mpg of the cue. Still toying with that concept...

nice, more precise and detailed...like it..
Thanks Joe. I have never understood the requests for a whole cue shot. I mean, look at the cue in my images in the first post, what more is there to see? I could somewhat understand it if the cue has a wood handle. In that case I always try to incorporate a shot of the entire handle with the rings and a portion of the forearm and butt sleeve.
And yes, I use scans.
