Default Amateur Photographers Needed!

I just launced a new website - www. myhoofpics. com - where you can create photo books and other cool products, like calendars, tee shirts, coffee mugs, etc., using your own digital photos.

But, here's where I need some help--and I can pay (very modestly!) for your photos if I post them. The concept is that the site has an Online Library of "back-story" photos from various shows and events that people can use to supplement their own photos and add interest and color to their own photo books. These are the photos that no one thinks about taking--the center ring, warmup arena, wash racks, show office--all the things that make the show, "the Show!" Although I'm trying to learn, I'm not much of a photographer yet, and if you're going to one of the last few shows of the season and would like a list of the types of shots I'm looking for, just email me and I'll send to you.

And, I'm also looking for general horse "lifestyle" photos--the farrier nailing a shoe, interesting detail from a bridle, a water bucket frozen solid--you get the idea! If you have photos you want to submit for this "All Things Equine," you can email these to me as well.

My email address is: myhoofpics@gmail. com

Thanks for your help!

P.S. Because the site is so new, we have a FREE PHOTO BOOK offer for a limited time. If you try it, I'd love to receive your feedback!

Looks like you became an affiliate or "reseller" of "Rocketlife.com". And I hope you did not pay anything for it.

All I get on your links is launch rocketlife. That ain't working friend. You need some examples up front. I checked their site - and it is pretty goofy, too. Sites that do not tell the visitor up front what the deal is about do not work to well any more. There was way to much "promise heaven and deliver hell".

Hope you did not pay anything! I would get out of this. This site has no traffic - check it on "Alexa".

Appreciate your thoughts, Wolfgang, but this is the real deal. Before I launched this, of course I did several books for myself, to be sure the quality was what I expected, and that the products were priced competitively.

Did you download the software, so you could see its capabilities? It's really amazing. It was developed by the same guys who created the special effects for the Star Wars movies, and has 14 different patents protecting the technology. It actually analyzes your photos, and does a preliminary book layout for you by grouping like subjects and action together!

There's no over promising here--we're offering a free 20-page book you can create to demonstrate just how easy, and fun, this product is to use. Nothing wrong with healthy skepticism, Wolfgang--but if you have lots of digital horse photos that really don't have anyway to display or enjoy, try making a free book, and let me know what you think!

Best, MHP
