New Current PhotoPack Underway!!

jwisenberg · 06-03-2007, 03:34 AM

I am creating a brand new photo pack which will work with the upcoming roster sets. Last year a pack was released similar to what I am doing but I was not happy with the quality of that set so I have decided to work on my own.

The project is to gather pics for all players who have played this season from the majors right on down to A ball. As of May 30 there were 4253 players who have appeared in a game.

I am going in alphabetical order by last name. I have completed letters A & B and have thrown up a quick website so all can see the quality of the set.

Some pics are not the best but on harder to find players you take what you can get. If anyone has any better pics of the players already completed feel free to post them here.

I am missing only 2 players for a and b, Edulin Abreu & Mike Bell.

Sorry for the ads, but it is a free site.

Here's your missing pic of Edulin Abreau.

jwisenberg · 06-03-2007, 12:26 PM

Thanks but that is a pic of Cory VanAllen.

APujols5 · 06-03-2007, 10:14 PM

Here's your missing pic. I don't know which Bell you';re missing as I have a Mike Bell with a college pic and a Michael Bell as well.

jwisenberg · 06-04-2007, 12:33 AM

thank you for the pic. if you don't mind could you post both and i'll take a look. I did find a pic for Bell but it is terrible quality.

APujols5 · 06-04-2007, 12:47 AM

after a little digging around, both the Bell's I have are different ones. Brewerfan's site doesn't even have a Bell pic, so odds are it's not out there... unless I have something from last year's WV team somewhere on my HD. I'll continu8e to see what I can dig up. Any other troublesome pics, let me know and I can give you a direct way to contact me since I rarely come here anymore. But I still over 32,000 pics floating around on my HD.

jwisenberg · 06-04-2007, 02:08 AM

Send me a pm as I would like to have your assistance with some of these tough ones. You know what a pain putting something like this together is.

Powderguy · 06-11-2007, 12:56 PM

How is this project coming along?

jwisenberg · 06-11-2007, 02:26 PM

well to be quite honest I hadn't been working very hard on it as no one seemed interested in this project. Now that I know at least one person is interested I'll push on.

I'm interested in this, let me know if I can be of any assistance.

DCHepler25 · 06-11-2007, 02:49 PM

Let me know who you are missing from the Pirates organization and I'll see what I can do!

Powderguy · 06-12-2007, 07:16 PM

So you need any help??

Blaksox1919 · 06-13-2007, 04:01 AM

OK, I didn't do that much last year but I did help a little with looking for hard to find pictures, now you asked for any better pics if people had them, I actually used the same pic you posted I just cleaned it up a bit (of Matt_Antonelli) to make it conform to the rest of the pack a little, is this something your interested in? I just thought the red texture background was a little distracting. Just let me know so i don't waste my time if you are satisfied with what you have. I also noticed a few pics that looked out of focus, or distorted, do you want replacements for those? I am not sure if it is the same Rod Allen or not but I googled him and came up with a picture from Arizona State Sun Devils, I thought the one you posted look distrorted so I changed the uniform to White Sox (as you had) for the Sun Devil picture I had and attached that as well. If you are interested in help like this or looking for missing pics I am more than willing just don't want to waste my time if your not.

Sorry so Long.

jwisenberg · 06-13-2007, 02:34 PM

That is exactly the kind of help I am looking for thank you.

jwisenberg · 06-13-2007, 03:39 PM

Blaksox1919 · 06-15-2007, 02:18 AM

This may be a dumb question, but what is the exact size these are supposed to be?

Blaksox1919 · 06-15-2007, 03:07 AM

This would be a huge undertaking, but what do you think about something like this to make all the images conform better?

Blaksox1919 · 06-15-2007, 03:15 AM

...almost forgot, here is Marcos with just a plain background for your set

jwisenberg · 06-15-2007, 10:10 PM

those are awesome, anything else you wish to contibute to this project will be greatly appreciated.

Blaksox1919 · 06-16-2007, 01:26 AM

any chance you could send me the all the files together? as it is now it appears I have to right click on each one and download it. Also do you have all the players in a text format? just thought if you were interested I could help out by starting with a letter for you, maybe I could start at the end of the alphabet and work backwards towards you. just a thought I don't have a ton of spare time but I do enjoy this kinda thing when I do have time.
