Hi Shamil No detailed experience - it is just how it works. If you wish to promote a physical product you will need pack shots and/or product shots to pass out for free to any dealer interested - previously to be used in catalogues and brochures, these days for web sites. If you lack such sources, one method is to google/bing on _Pictures_ using the part number or other unique description. Quite often you succeed. /gustav >>> shamil at smsconsulting.spb.ru 27-01-2011 16:22 >>> Hi Gustav -- Thank you for your reply. When you write typically - do you mean your own experience or experience of the other developers you're contacting with there? I'm also thinking that pictures should come from supplier/manufacturer especially for official dealers - they should for the new/additional options/opportunities to get their stuff sold/distributed. But my customer doesn't have such pictures - they just have .pdf or .ppt(x) (MS PowerPoint) catalogs. These are high quality catalogs with very good pics - so the supplier/manufacturer does have all the needed for an Internet shop stuff, and that shop will sell their (supplier/manufacturer) consumer goods... Not sure how to query them to get that catalogs' source pics to use them on Internet shop... I have written a short "enquire for pics" message to Babolat international offices through their site already - we will see will they react at all..

The customer is a small company, and it's its first attempt to start selling customers' goods on Internet. The current issue is to make customers' goods photos for this shop - to make them by themselves here or hire good photogrpahs - that's not possible not because of financial issues but because of the way this company sells the goods - many of them are never kept on the stores so it's not possible to make good pictures of that goods right now. And the current intention is to make this shop released ASAP: we use good "out-of-the-box" Internet shop ASP.NET solution. What is the usual official way to get that pictures? I guess that most of the well known brands (that shop is for tennis shoes, clothes, equipment...) do currently have ready to use pics for their customer goods. How to get that pictures officially? What is the usual cost for such a customers good pictures' set for one year models, for, say, Babolat, Nike, Head, ...? Thank you. -- Shamil
