I am working on a website and am in need of pen pictures. Are there any libraries out there I can access?
Hey guys, he may be talking about examples to show potential customers so that he can make more pens. Nothing wrong with that if he has permission to use the photos. His pens for sale will probably be shown with his own photos. I am making assumptions as well with this. He may not want to start with an empty website.
Interesting discussion - say a person wanted to put together a page showing the various types of Sierra pen kits out there as an idea of what could be made, but hasn't turned say the Fisher's of Men pen thus doesn't have a photograph to use - is this taboo, or should he be able to do that?
Along these same lines, should he have to do that with wood samples too? Say he wanted to show a prospective buyer different samples of wood or acrylic on his website, should he be able to do that without purchasing the blank?
An argument could be made that by showing the Fisher's of Men pen and a Cactus Blank - if the prospective customer ordered a custom pen, then the suppliers of the materials would benefit without any additional cost...
Thoughts?
Ed, you should be hovering over those slabs of PR, getting it ready for the band saw on Saturday. Lathes await !!!
Much of it is next to the bandsaw as we type. And it pertains to this conversation. IF you post a picture of one of the pens I make from SOME of those blanks, YOU MAY BE quite surprised when YOU try to turn it.
That's why I'd say, turn first, sell second.
Chris,
She says she doesn't have an answer for you yet. (That's all I know - flogging me won't help!!)
CEO?
I have made approximately 100 pens of all kinds so far. I was looking for pictures that could be reduced and used as buttons. I am not trying to use another's picture to sell the pen.
Sorry if there was some confusion.
This is a hobby for me. Creating the website and working with the code is as much a hobby to me as creating the pens. I am an IT techie.
