One --- my post was just poking a little fun, why quote me in your rant?

Two -- This is a web-based industry, at the big shows photography happens.

Three -- Shit happens.

Four -- Both photography and shit happens.

Five -- People take pics at shows. There is something to be said for staying away from the shows if you don't want your pic taken.

Six -- people that photographically cover the webmaster shows can't be expected to never make a mistake and include someone they shouldn't in the odd picture. By the same token, photographers should not laugh when someone directly asks them to refrain from taking their picture. Obviously such requests should be taken seriously, as this thread clearly shows.

That's why I was a webmaster for years and been actively promoting our program as one of the affiliates before I got a job as the "manager" The best is to hire a webmaster that has been promoting your program for a substantial amount of time then they have a good idea about the program already ..

I didn't get the job because i am eye candy , hell i don't even take pictures ! :1orglaugh
There are some reps I have encountered don't even know some basic easy terminology not neccessarily chicks too :2 cents:

Re # 6 I do not take pics of people not wanting to, also remove pics on request. Where the problem lies is when you ask for pics not to be taken, and then pose with a friend because you cant say no to them. Then ask to have that same pic removed.
There are all kinds of peeps shooting pics and posting them, good luck in getting them to remove it:2 cents:

That was part of the point I made in my above post. There are all kinds of photographers covering these shows, this is a web-based industry, an image-based industry, a high-profile industry..... I would almost be inclined to suggest that maybe, just maybe, if one feels so utterly and completely anal about not having one's picture taken, that maybe, just maybe, this is not the right business to be working in...... or at the very least they should think about avoiding the shows.

It is pretty unreasonable to demand that your picture not be taken when so many people make their living by covering these events. A person could go mental just trying to track down every photog that shot pics at even one internext, there must be dozens if not hundreds.

thanks , i am tired of defending myself ,
JFK my problem lies not because you took the pics of me and posted it up on your site that is the least of my concern at the moment , its when you came up to me and verbally attacked cussing me out at the table in public with everyone around. I had no idea it was coming it freaked me out

I think the moral of this thread is that certain pics should never make the web, like this one for example

This can be point #7 added to my above post.

Seven --- This is a high-tech industry, we are all (or should be all) professionals on one level or another. Let's try to act like it. An all-out public rant with flipping fingers and swearing, especially in front of others, isn't the way to go. Not at a show, not in a restaurant, not anywhere. Even in private there are better ways to drive home a point that keeps things professional.




Threads like this don't always have to be a pissing match. They can also be a learning experience.

And Webgirl, you do create quite a problem with your non-photo policy. The problem is that to those of us who have seen your picture.... well, we WANT to see more pics of you. I believe the few glimses of you I've seen in various pics says it all.... you're not so bad to look at.

Stop torturing everyone. You have some loyal fans here. Your ducking and hiding from cameras is annoying to them. :D

okay fair enough :)

I think that the best point here is to live and let live....

:2 cents:

Webgurl at least in the pics I've got of you, I think you look pretty cute, fun, and cool indeed!

Nothing to by shy about in my opinion :)

no. . . the male I was referring to knows who he is . . . we joke about it now

I believe him because the two times that I saw him around with a camera, I made sure to turn my back...

yes, that one is a little disturbing to say the least

That is the tough part, she is cute, and when she is always in the company of Lisa (equally cute) it makes it tough for a guy like me to not want to take their picture.

AMEN!

They are a deadly pair.

touche

you rock

both of them even

First off I haven't weighed 95 pounds since high school. Second off, I don't fake anything. Keep talking that smack and you'll see how I handle things in person ;)

So then you truly weren't faking it that one time with me?? :Graucho

1005 pure baby ;)

That's not disturbing.

If they were sitting down IN the tub, side by side so you don't know where their hands are, now THAT would be disturbing.

What's disturbing is the fact that they are so afraid of being mistaken for gay, that they have to sit equal distances apart from each other, each making sure they're not closer than the other guy. I find that shit hilarious!
Another thing that's always amused me is when 2 guys (strictly friends) want to catch a movie in a theater, they have to sit with AT LEAST 1 empty seat between them. That one little seat in the movie theater can make all the difference in the world when it comes to determining a man's sexual preference. But what I don't get is... why even bother going with somebody if you're not even going to sit by them?

we do it in hopes that a single, good looking girl will come to the movies, and the seat between us will be the only one available

Missy I always save an extra seat just in case you're around!

Then what would you do... share her or fight over her?

See if she has any hot friends.

flip a coin usually

Aww, that's sweet. But then I wouldn't have an excuse to sit on your lap!

and that

We have a winner! :thumbsup

I never said which seat... :Graucho

you all are just a bunch of a mental ass clowned bitches

...but you dont look a pound over 95.. thats what misled me.. :winkwink:

And you are captain obvious.


Dare I ask what your point was?

That's a pretty obvious point. 95lb drunk girls are all the rage.

It's definitely a sad day in webmasterville. :(

Whoa! Wait a minute you jabroni's... Can yooooou smelllllll what the Kimmy Kim is cookin? :winkwink:

:thumbsup

Wow, that's amazing, one would think at 5'9 I'd look like a skeleton to give you that appearance. I mean, I know my boobs, are um, non-amazing, but hey, I've got some hips!

;-}}}}

i like your boobs just fine kimmy!

Another bump from page 2 huh.

Nice. :glugglug

hehe

Webgurl is not obsessed about it and I have never seen her be dramatic or over react when someone is snapping away. Considering her preference to not being the center of attention in pics, she has always bitten her tongue and been polite rather than cause an incident or try to get her wishes met by throwing a tantrum. I have seen her pushed into pics by being held against someone or someone sneaking up to her... and smiling for the sake of the party even though she didn't want to be in the pics...so if anything she is the last person I would believe to be responsible for such a heated reaction to her wanting her pics removed.
