[Valadius]

OO, are you paying for those pics?

[Valadius]

Black and blue, but...

No, which is why I'm only grabbing ones where the face isn't obscured by the watermark.

Fair game, right?

Right?

[Valadius]

Because I went to the Getty Images website, and I try and pull images from there, but it won't let me.

I've been copying the image locations and trans-hosting them at imageshack.

[Valadius]

Not a player, but here's a coach:

Jose Parra



Kane Davis (I can't tell if its too small or not, my eyes don't count pixels)



Dammit, Jeff Tam, move your damn glove!

[Valadius]

Toby Borland



Willie Blair



Donne Wall



Ryan McGuire



Rick Wilkins



Dick Tidrow (somebody has to buy this or whatever, so we can get the watermark off. The important thing is that this is out there.)



Brady Clark (too bad it's not really a Mets cap)



David Lamb



Jorge Velandia (this is priceless...)



Barry Jones



Jeff Tam

[Valadius]

How are these, Yancy?

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

I'll probably grab a few of them.

It's too bad about that watermark over Dick Tidrow's face. That was the nicest of them.

[Zvon]

That Tidrow is excellent.
He looks so much like Mattingly from the 80's there.

But I suppose he always kinda did look like the Mattman.

Val, can't you register at the GettyImage site and then have the privilage of viewing (and saving) the images without the watermark?

I know thats how it works at Corbis (an image site)
, and there to register is free.

At Corbis they have one nice image of Tidrow, but he's a Cubbie.

[Valadius]

Very quietly, David Wright has moved into 18th place all-time in look-ups.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

It looks like it will be at least two months before he catches Kevin Mitchell for 17th place.

He has a shot at being in 15th place by Opening Day.

[Valadius]

I think you have to purchase images to remove the watermark.

[Valadius]

Tom Martin



Jason Anderson



Shane Halter



Joe DePastino



Jim Mann



Rick Parker



Barry Manuel



Todd Haney



Wayne Housie



Mike Fyhrie



Dan Murray



Matt Watson

[metirish]

Anderson looks about 15 in that pic,Mann looks like Miquel Cairo.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Watson is a day late on that cut, isn't he?

[Elster88]

That's a great Mike Fyhrie.

Not that I know who the hell that is.

[Valadius]

By the way, Yancy, you already have the pics for Tito Navarro and Darrell Sutherland up on UMDB.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

How do you like that?

Thanks for pointing it out. I guess I forgot to update their records when I posted the pictures.

I also posted Rick White and Ricky Ledee today, so the want list is down to 111 players.

[Valadius]

Uh... Yancy?

Why is the UMDB showing up as a bunch of garbled code?

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

It's a "dehancement."

Actually, I was unaware of it until you pointed it out. I opened a support ticket. Hopefully it'll be fixed within a few hours.

[Valadius]

It's started coming back up. Some parts are still down.

If thats the same site.....
Now I can view all images without the watermark. And save without watermark.
Didnt try linking, but if its anything like Corbis that wont be possible.

None of my searches revealed any of these pics you have found here.
That has to be the most unuser friendly website Ive ever visited.

Can you link me to the section of the site that has these images?

[Valadius]

Right here:

thnx Val.
Ill keep you imformed as to the watermark business.
You should register but.....
you still might not wish to , since they insist you give your home address and phone number as well as the usual Email info.
Very intrusive, if you ask me.
But I made everything up cept for my Email.
My home address and phone number is none of their business.

[Zvon]

Update:

Dont bother registering-
all pics in this section contain the watermark even when logged in.
Thats F'd up.

Join Corbis- they remove the watermark upon registration.

Has there always been that little fanfare when you first open it? I never noticed it before. Cool!

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

huh?
