(Also... Did Flickr just get REALLY sh*tty with the recent changes, or have I just never noticed how sh*tty it always was, because I wasn't looking at the resizes on a retina display before? -- I don't think I'll ever link back to Flickr to post here ever again. They just looked too pixelated and sh*tty and it made me want to cry. Fo' real. :lmao: )

I like the last one the best. The first few make him look kinda douchy.

Not your fault mind you.

I like the last on in each post! Nice work!!!

….and yes… Flickr really knocked it out of the park. lol

Haha, douchy how?

I was trying to get him to emote more, but all the ones he selected were the ones he was more serious in. I guess he just likes his serious face. :lol:

Thanks!

And yeah... I think I'm gonna cancel my subscription. I was sort of using them as a place to link from in here and on my blog, but I think I need to find a new method. Everything looks like sh*t now, unless you're actually viewing IN the Flickr gallery itself. :er:

The "oh you caught me reading some heavy text in my study" look.

That would be writing some deep text... but yes. :lmao:

Apparently ya'll don't like looking at photos of dudes nearly as much as the girls I post. :lmao: :sexywink:

I never use flickr for resizing fullsized photos - I do that myself because pretty much any automated service is going to get it wrong (there is no perfect amount to add some photos need more and some need less). I tend to upload at 1000pixels on the longest side at most and that is one I've resized myself so I know it looks right. Flickr and the others are generally ok resizing from there to make a few smaller versions.

Also this guy is way too serious; he needs more smile

short of the sun spots, I really cant find any raving flaws standing out. My first reaction is I thought they were snapshot plain material when I glanced through. I just looked through again, and they are actually pretty good though. Im not jumping and clapping my hands in excitement but not avoiding looking from the pain either. Just good and decent photos. I like the first three bw, I actually kind of like 7 and 10 too. All really. The background on 5,6 might be a acquired taste, im not a fan. The road in ten adds some interest for me over the nothing in 9.
11 I guess is okay, not really into the farm hick look with the silos and putting his head right between I thought was a little odd.

The stuff on the wall in 4 is distracting to a extent. But that may be example of what he does and your intended purpose it appears so.

As I already stated I like the bw, I would consider moving things around for a change if redone. The windows and placement in the frame something could probably be made better there.

Okay Rose, I'm disappointed. VERY disappointed. When I open one of your threads I expect certain things and dudes in baseball caps are not them!

Technically, the images look great, they're very much 'you', but... HOW are these going to be used to publicize a music producer? My thought was that they looked like a high-school senior shoot.
