The pictures on the results page are large enough that who needs to pay for an add? Photographers must agree that the pictures will be provided to the Review for no charge. The Review is the only magazine where not only does the advertisers not have to pay for the add they don't have to pay for the picture either. And you wonder why photographers come and go? It is the same with the results page on PC website. The photos are blurred now and makes your eyes crazy trying to look at them!! It seems to me that if the photographs are not purchased then they should not be provided to the Review and the Website until they are. The photographers have travel expenses and time into their work. Why are they required to provided all the freebees :0) Terry ________________________________ From: carolyn mckenna <carolynmckenna@xxxxxxxxx> To: showgsd <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tue, March 15, 2011 9:04:24 AM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Saving the Review I receive many breed magazines. They are huge, beautiful, informative, full ofadds. Why ? Because they are sent to all judges approved to judge that breed."The Review can't afford it" I hear you cry. Well it's a circular thing: the moreadds the more income; the more income the more material can be included( more pages ). In this age, adds are for the judges. Why does the Reviewhave more adds just before the national ? It's for the judges to see. If theReview were sent to judges, more people would advertise, thus more incomeand the magazine could afford more articles and info. Another start toward recovery would be to replace the way outdated show results pages with something of value, but I have been told that the board dictates the content and that theywant this useless stuff in there. Why ? Who knows; it's on the web site justa few days after the shows. Carolyn ===========================================================================POST is Copyrighted 2011.
