Looking for photographs

[captainproton]

I have been a PBase user for some time and love browsing through galleries enjoying the work of others.

I am also a programmer and started writing a game package, primarily for my partner who loves slot machines but spends to much money on them, but this one is not like the others. The reels are all made up of my photographs, and there are some photos that are spread over all reels which makes it hard to get a big win because getting them all in the right place is not easy. You can also customise your own reels if you want to. I intend to allow photographers to make their own reels and distribute them as they please once the software is completed.

I have decided that I am going to distribute the game on the net but am looking for photographers willing to let me use a few of their images on the reels.

So, if anyone is interested in having their pictures in the game (you get full credit if I use them) can you send me some (captainproton@craigedgar.com)

You can download a beta copy of the software here. http://www.craigedgar.com/pp.zip

I want to have reels that cover specific subjects, so I am looking for photos of the following;

Fruit,
Animals,
Landscapes,
Nudes,
Marine,
Abstract,

just about anything.

The pictures will not be used for any other purpose and if not used in the game will be deleted.

I don't want copyright and can't afford to pay for them.

Individual reels measure 128 x 120 and complete screens are 640 x 360. But send full size images so that I can crop them and size them correctly.

I do hope that this request doesn't offend anyone nor that it starts a discussion that might turn into an argument. I just figured that PBase was a great source of pictures but wouldn't dream of using any without permission.

Lots of lookers but no takers.

I have made a lot of changes to the software with emphasis on the size of photographs. Pictures are now the equivilant of a normal 6 x 4.

Quite a few have downloaded it, and I am aware that there are some bugs to date and I am sorting them out one at a time.

Does the fact there has been no reply mean that I have offended anyone?

Hi!
I think it sounds like nice idea! Good luck with it! Unfortunatly I don't think I have any photos for you (or at least not enough for a whole category). Feel free to brows my galleries and if you find anything I'll be more than happy to send them to you!

you can use this:

but it's a little fuzzy.

Thanks for the replies, I shall look at using the photos on offer and will credit each of you in the help file if the pictures are used in the final release.

I have made a lot of changes to the game, ironed out bugs and made it cleaner looking.

It has been downloaded about 15 times (this is the only site that has the URL for downloading it). Those who have downloaded it, you might like to download again and take a look.

Any feed back would be appreciated. I normally write application software, or internet stuff so this game stuff is interesting and new to me.

Thanks again to those who have offered photos.

BTW, someone mentioned that they could not cover all categories - that doesn't matter. Anything is appreciated.
