Hi Everyone

 

Just wanted to let you all know the good news that we are now ready to roll out our Photo shoot picture library web site at 1pm on Monday.

 

For those of you that wish to have your photo shoots on JPEG's so you can used them in a digital format and use them on the net , Facebook or print them off yourselves etc this is for you.

 

Also if you lose your hard copes you can look them up in this library and order them so you have them again :-)

 

We have all the photo shoot photos from the very first event we started doing photo ops , so there are many images to go through and look at.

 

We will be charging £4.99 for a standard size image file and for the full size file they will be £5.99

 

We are also going to offer the chance to have your image put on a canvas and on larger size images on photographic paper as well.

 

The library when it go's live on Monday will have Showmasters/Massive Events years 2006,2008 and 2009 photos that will be every photo we have taken in these years and we will also be putting up this years London Film and Comic Con as well.

 

Over the next few weeks we will also be adding to the Library till we have all the photo ops ready for you to buy and download.

 

This is an extra service we have added to our events and it has taken many months getting this library uploaded as there is such a vast amount of images in our archive, and now we have this service up and running you will be able to pop in and see your self and your friends and remember these amazing images and the moments they represent can now be with you forever and you can also now share them on line with your friends.

 

we hope you all like looking through these lovely images and the fact that now you can order the JPEG's online.

 

Enjoy

 

Jason

Great Idea ... but 1 question i'm not sure of .. do we have to pay to join this / download our pics , or is the price for if we want them printing off ?

Based upon

and

then I would say those are the prices to buy the digital files. (It also fits with previously suggeted file prices by SM.)

Printing by SM will involve extra for the costs of print media etc. (As no doubt it will if you just take the digital files and get them printed yourself).

The work company was just an example (maybe a bad one) but I'm sure there are as many valid reasons as number of attendees, each with their own sensibility.

 

It's not such a bad example. For cosplayers if these photographs get online and people know the cosplayer they may credit them, therefore linking the name with the photo... google search, so there there are possibilities of this happening.

Hi everyone

 

it looks like i am going to have to comment on here to stop any further drama.

 

We are within our rights to be able to offer these images in this format and charge for this service.

 

I am going to close this topic as I know for a fact that on another forum there are people trying to feed this thread just to create some drama for us. At the end of the day this is a great service which many people have been asking for for a long time. We are within our rights to offer this service and thats what we will continue to do.

 

If you do decide to contact us about this matter here is the response that you will receive. We have taken legal advice on this matter and the below statement are the facts provided.

 

 

 

"Hi

 

 

The copyright of all images that are taken at all our events reside with Showmasters/photographers and are our intellectual property. We grant non commercial use to the people in the photographs so you can use them on the internet and in whatever non commercial media you wish, but the copyright of all images still resides with us and as such we have the right to distribute them as we wish.

 

The new online photo shoot Library which Showmasters has launched is mainly there for people wishing to obtain JPEGs of images of themselves and their friends and helps people who have taken part in a photo shoot get high quality digital images to keep forever.

 

We are charging for any downloads of these images so that people cannot just download whatever they want for free and as such we do feel that most of the images will be bought by people who are in the images themselves. We also do not disclose the names of the people in the photos so they will not come up in any searches of that person's name, so unless you know which event, day and photo shoot the person took part in then you are unlikely to be able to find their image.

 

Yours

 

Jason Joiner
