Sorry Boogie my Maxx card is a 1/1 :)

-------------------------------

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

Tips on how to make your scans look like the card does in hand (No more washed out, fuzzy scans!):

I know, Billy, I read your post about it. I think its awesome you have a 1/1 rookie of yourself from your favorite set AND its part of your profile picture! None of the rest of us do. ------------------------------- <Insert Signature Here>

Again, in this situation (Card of the Day back), if you have the card and can provide a straightened clear scan, notify Admin, they'll remove the crooked scan, and you can post yours. (And you get the points.)

If I click Write One on the card of the day right now the guy with the most points on this site has a crooked, washed out crappy stock image of a baseball card pop up. If the rest of you enjoy that with it's black edges and skewed centering, than by all means continue to enjoy.

Like I said I am not going to replace all of their half hearted uploads but maybe someone else would if they wanted to climb this site's leaderboard. My suggestion was simply that maybe someone who cared could do it right or you can continue to enjoy Dave Sosidka or whatever his name is and the rest of the stock image uploaders.

I don't know what the reward is for uploading the most crappy, harvested images on this site is but it must be that t-shirt. I'm personally holding out for a Billy Kingsley Maxx rookie because now that he has shown me photoscape I am scanning and photoshopping and photoscaping and reuploading and it takes way too much time but I like the results better.

I personally prefer quality over quantity, like with my IPAs, bourbons, coded applications, women, entertainment options, etc. I would punish mediocrity every day and reward a quality effort. They are too lazy to even crop them correctly.

In the meantime I hope your collecting is fun and you pull hit after hit!

I'm still trying to get good results from some of my scans. Until I'm happy with them, I won't be uploading them. Wish I had more time to mess with it, but until my current situation improves, it'll have to wait. ------------------------------- "I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter." - Crash Davis
