Can't afford them? Unacceptable excuse. The point is there are
literally DOZENS of albums out there of members and friends of TOS who
would donate pictures. If they wait until the last minute to ask then
that is just laziness on TOS's part. They should have an open request
fro submissions. Computer storage is so cheap now that to not have an
enormous library from which to sort through is just inane.
