Title: Arnold Amateur CLASSIC Photos.
Post by: Matt C on March 03, 2011, 12:58:14 PM
This is thread #19874 on my board.  Ron, maybe you can think about unblocking my link?  :-\  ;D

I'll post more.  I'm just trying to decide on the watermarking of these photos.  What do you guys recommend for size and placement?  My old watermark program expired and I am just learning this one now but I have the hang of it.  Any opinions on that, let me know.  I will upload more photos in the meantime.

Also, what would you guys say is the optimal size for viewing of web photos?  I am thinking perhaps 50% bigger than these photos would be ideal.  Discuss.

your "watermark" is blocking/taking up Way to much space (IMO)
make it smaller/more inconspicuous (like this pic perhaps)
my 2 cents ( i mean come on/ur blocking off half of the guys physique)

This was the "classic bodybuilding" contest.

There are height classes and weight restrictions.

NOT the event that Essa Obiad and Roelly Winklar won.

I'll do that now for the ones I post after this!  Thanks Mike.

PS - I bought my tickets but there was no will call booth to pick them up and I just walked in and seats third from the front were available.  Sold out show.  :-\  I don't even know exactly what was scheduled for today because neither Antoine Vaillant or Alexey Lesukov were there.

Got it, thanks.  Title edited.  What about the photo size?  Should they be a little bigger?  I have to say I am very pleased with the quality of my camera and lens.  If I get good seating I will be able to get some decent photos of all the events at the expo.  This thread will be sort of my learning thread so that I get it right when it matters for the big events coming up on the weekend.

I'm going to go with 50% bigger after I post these four because getbig already resizes them so that they can be right clicked for the larger versions.

Title: Mens Classic Bodybuilding
Post by: flexingtonsteele on March 03, 2011, 04:15:46 PM
I see that they have this class this year at the arnold.

When are they going to bring it here to the states.

Its nice to see a bodybuilder without the huge guts, the seo all over the place, blocky waist, and overall drugged out look.

Matt C, you're such a fucking loser. Get rid of the 1996 Angelfire/Geocities era watermarks.

Well, that's why I asked.  I just wanted to get any watermark up quickly for now but the watermark software I just downloaded is easy to use so now that I have the hang of it I can change it to anything.

I have videos to post but the upload speeds at the hotel are horrible, no doubt due to the volume of people here.  It's literally taking two hours for me to upload a 30 second clip of Evan Centopani at the Meet & Greet.  He looks great though.  His arms are huge.

Thanks for the advice!  Yes, I might just have to seek out a faster wireless connection.  As it is, compressing the video files has helped the uploads go faster.

X2, get a better haircut also you homo

I did get one and thanks for everyone for pointing it out!!  My hair looks like this now:





I purposely sought out a barber who is a BENDER because apparently they have a better sense of style.  It just goes to show how out of touch I am when it comes to style because I can't really tell what looks good and what doesn't.  Any advice on the clothes would be greatly appreciated as well.

It is body building but with a maximum weight per height set.

Here's my recommendation regarding the improvement of your photos, but it looks like someone has already recommended "crop" and "enlarge" because the last group of shots look pretty good.
