These work great to correct perspective flaws and square it up, but still doesn't have the image quality of an actual scanner.

Problem is, I remember seeing on some basketball set, a picture not a scan, sent in by Admin. Is Admin allowed to break his own rules?

First and foremost, it's the rule of law, Admin's law. No photos. If one exception is granted then unfortunately that gives license in the minds of some members to upload nothing but photos, "Well, if he can upload photos, I can upload photos."

You can upload your photos of your card to your personal images of the card. Personal images are viewable by all. So your goal of having an image for members to look at will be accomplished.

Understood everyone. I won’t submit photos anymore. Thanks for the clarification. How does one add to personal images though? ------------------------------- #COMMONCARDSMATTER "The 0-2 pitch...

Rules have changed over the years. If it was scanned by Admin and dated 2019, I would question it. If it was scanned by Admin in 2008, it probably wasnt a rule yet.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.
