Question Photo request

I am in the process of adding "collector pictures" to the Parker Grades page found off the PGCA home page. John started by adding pictures of an A1S and pictures of a AAH have been added since.

I have seen some great pictures posted that would work well there and I wonder if the person that owns them would be willing to allow these (or new) pictures to be added. Would you make them available to me for use on our web site?

If you wouldn't mind, please create an Album on this forum with the pictures I can use and let me know the name of the album so that I can identify them.

Pictures of the receiver sides, top and bottom; the forend, grip checkering and butt would be great too. I am in need of AH, BH, CH, DH, GH, PH, VH and Trojan.

Hi Robin!

I'll give it a try for you... I've got a few of various grades I can add over the next few days, OK?.. Also, do you want various gauges and frame sizes of the same grade?

Our collective thanks for pulling this together - it should be a terrific addition!!

John

Thanks John.

I think following what you did is what we want. To show the grade in picture form in an effort to enhance the original Parker paper description so someone who hasn't seen many Parkers can appreciate the variety. One ga. should do it and I don't think stock or forend type matters much, although a mix of splinter or beaver tail forends and straight or pistol grip would be nice.

Hey Guys!

Those are outstanding - and just what I think Robin needs.. As well - can you add them to an Album of yours (Create your own album by clicking here...) The reason is that the Album software will create "thumbnails" for Robin.... Also - the more pictures of the same gun you have would be great - like, Dave - if you can add both sides and the bottom plate as well to an album - that would be great!!

Also - Robin - please feel free to use these for an AAHE....

John

Dave......????

I know you took the Evelyn Woods Speed Reading Course.... BUT.....

I was talking about putting them in an Album you create for them (by clicking here.... and above - or in your userCP or...) - as that will create the THUMBNAILS for Robin for that page..



AND OH - wait until you get my bill for that picture... It'll be the same I charge for all my pics..??

Best to you Dave - and thanks for all you do!
