ErraticStatic.com - Paintball Picture Gallery - Tons of gun pics and action pics!!

[Muzikman]

First off, I think it's a cool idea. With that being said, I am glad to see you are now taking every effort to see that the owner of the picture gets credit. Photo theft on the internet is a common problem. Though I am not saying you are a theif, as you have posted the disclaimer, there are some people out there who have serious problems with this and would take legal actions to prevent it (not that any of these people are here, or even in the paintball field).

I have not looked though the pictures, so I do not know if any I have taken are there, but I will do so ASAP and let you know as I would like credit. Also, if you want to use any pics from the AOSE '03 day go to my site (http://paintballmedia.com/gallery/albums.php)and take them, but again, please give me credit, do not link directly to the pic, and do not alter the pic in any way except for resizing. I have other pics of other events out there, if you find them, use them

BTW, what part of Pittsburgh you from? Where do you usually play?

Hey muzikman. I appreciate your concern on the site and allowing me to use your pics.

I live a couple miles away from the city. I live in Kennedy Township, real close to Robinson. Maybe you know/heard of the Robinson Mall (Even though I think where it is is actually North Fayette).

My friend owned a lown mower and such repair shop. They closed it down and we made the building into an indoor speedball course. I mostly play there. When I go to an actual field I go to Three Rivers and occassionally Urban Assault (I've only been there a handful of times even though it is closer than Three Rivers).

[APowers365]

Oh Mayhem, those are some real sweet guns. I assume you wanted me to post them on the site, correct??

[Muzikman]

Is the indoor place you guys made open to the public? If so, PM me directions and one of the times you'll be there and I'll come out an introduce myself. I live in Penn Hills (east of the city) and yes I know where Robinson is. I usually play at 3rivers, though I have only been there once this past year. I do not play as much these days. It's been years...and I mean years since I have been to Urban's outdoor field. I think NPPL '96 was the last time

Apower, feel free to add them to your site, if you want I can add specs on them when you want to update your site with the full pic/specs/person thing. LMK

[APowers365]

I do not play as much as I like, only about once a month because of the lack of funds.

The indoor place we made is not open to the public. When we play there it is usually a couple of us from our group of friends and anybody else in the area that plays that we atleast somewhat know. But I would be happy to let you know the next time we play there. It is out by Starlake though, about 30 minutes from where I live, so it might take u some time to get there. We haven't played there in a while. The top floor (there's the top floor where we play and the cellar that is filled with machine parts) has the course, a kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom. The kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom take about 1/4 of the space on the first floor and it is kinda hard to explain but the field is heavily favored for the one team the way we have it setup. We haven't played there in a while because we are...reconstructing the field. We are rearranging the bunkers and getting rid of the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom or atleast minimizing the space they take up. Again it's hard to explain but one time gets about 1/4 the floor, and then other team gets about 1/2 the floor, so the one team usually gets pinned down in the corner. We are trying to make the sides fair.

I think that's about all....

[APowers365]

Thanks mayhem. As for the specs and stuff, I'm gonna have to hold off on that for awhile because I do not have the code yet to reconstruct the site so when you click on the pic it shows u the pic and all the information about the gun. Whenever I reconstruct it I'll post on here and on the site for everyone to submit the info about their guns (If they want). I think that will be the simplest way.

Shut up. I would be happy to have my mag up there I bet everyone else would too. He never classified them as his own he has a seperate section for his gun.

my gun is up there and im not very happy about it. i dont have a problem with people doing websites like these but if your going to take pictures someone else already posted for others to see you should ask first (if you cant contact them then dont use it, then you dont have this problem or have to post disclaimers) and you should give credit where credit is due given that you dont have to make the pictures yourself (beyond that of making them into thumbnails) make a website like that isnt exactly time consuming compared to the work i and others had to do to make the money to buy that gun, the camera, the computer, the software, etc.


anyway if you want help with the website id be glad to retrofit it or whatever since my website design classes have been pretty useless so far.



and since i dont like using email ill give you my info for my gun so you can place the credit.

my emag is this one: http://erraticstatic.com/image.php?p=p/guns/mags/mag(63).jpg

my nickname is FalloutMan (i use that everywhere else btw)

and my email is [email protected] (lol not sure why i made it that o well)

[APowers365]

Hey guys. Well I spent all day developing a php script so that you click on the thumbnail and you see the larger pic and then on right it will have the name of the owner, email, and specs for each gun. I just got the basics done, that's the hard part. And I got one angel page done. Now each page has 25 thumbnails instead of 15. The thumbnails I made are crazy small from 1kb-4kb so it shouldnt take much longer to load the 10 more thumbs. So that's 25 down, 1000+ to go, lol. It shouldn't take that long though. A good hard days work should, I think, be able to convert the whole site. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Keep visiting!!

[APowers365]

Oh I forgot to mention. If you would like to check out the new revised gallery go here:

http://www.erraticstatic.com/images/angels1/index.php

That page is not fully done but 95% done.
You probably will notice on that page that there are random page numbers and just plain old random numbers. Those are for my reference and will not be there when I complete it.

The first thumbnail is the only one with owner/specs info. That info is not real, I just put it there so you can see how it will be setup. I know the guy (kinda, just online, so I don't know his real name) who owns the gun, so hopefully he'll forgive me All the rest of the pics just say "comment for pic x" I will change those later.

I would appreciate any suggestions on anything for the site.

[APowers365]

Photo galleries re-done and a matrix section added. Still much more to come.

[Ov3rmind]

Oooooooo, a Trix section to oogle over.

[xrancid_milkx]

I emailed you my picture(s) of my E-Magnum when you first posted this thread, before the whole above issue arrived.

Anyway, I don't see it on the website

Do I have to send another email with the pictures and owner information? Or post the information here?

Oh ya, do you want the actual file, or a website url of the image?

[APowers365]

I never got around to it; I'll do that today.

[XzIpK21]

Tee-hee, both my Cocker and Micro E-mag is on there.
Nice site man.
