Greetings all, I've been a part of this community for a couple years now, mainly in the Poser forums, but needed to asl a favour of you. I am putting together a booth for some kids fair type things this summer, and I'm going to do a "Picture of you anywhere" theme using Photoshop to drop in the people into the photo. I thought I would start here to look for photos, as most of the globe is represented on this site. What I'm looking for specifically is kind of a tourist looking photo that people might take when visiting a city. This way, with me and my Photoshop, they can have a photograph of them standing in front of the Eiffel Tower, The Great Wall of China, In a castle, Stonehenge, where ever. :) It's becoming quiet a challenge for me to find photos I can use (I only use what I have permission to use, otherwise the internet is FULL of photos I can steal, but that's not me.) When requested, I have no problem putting a by line on the image for the photo, and I can gladly share with you the outcome of the project. I don't know if it will draw any business or if I'm wasting my time, but it's (at this point) to raise money for the kids school. (Library, sports and music equipment, etc.) So, two things I suppose, any suggestions on what I can do to make it more fun, and mainly, anyone have pictures of their hometown I can use? (I'm also useing a lot of my own photos and computer generated images to drop people into, so they can fight a dragon, fly with a fairy, and things like that.) :) Thanks for any input, Rich

Just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to those that responded to my call. I honestly can not put into words how nice it is to be able to meet such great people. (This is not in sarcasm, I have been recieving and responding in instant messages.) :) If ever there is a time I can repay the kindness, please ask. I.E. If you ever have a photo you want to put a person in, (or a fairy or dragon, or what have you) you need but ask, and I will do my best to comply. The project is moving quite fast now, and within a few weeks I will open shop at a street fair in my hometown (Olympia, WA to those local that want to come visit) Thanks again, Rich
