I can vouch for this; dedicated hat enthusiast, yet non-bald is me. ;)











Oh, and which image is best depends on your market. The youth market will probably prefer the first one. Tally-Ho!

Hmmm...this picture makes me think maybe your real talent is not in composition, but in used car sales... :D :lol: :lol:
HaHaHa! :lol: Maybe not a bad idea, Matt! "Ma'am, do I have the car for you! Vinyl roof, new tires, AM/FM radio, only 155,000 highway miles, cold air, new timing belt at 80,000 miles, 22 mpg highway, smogged, clean clean clean! Of course, we provide financing to anyone!"

But I'd prefer to be a new car salesman for either Oldsmobile, Saturn, Pontiac, Hummer, or possibly Toyota! ;)

I may be moving to the Bay Area soon, and want to update promo photos. My new iMac with Gimp processing is an amazing photo duo!

Here are some candidates:

Image (My rock image).

Image (Me appealing to my veteran friends).

Image (My NRA image).

Image (My "Angus Young" image).

Image (My "Margaritaville" image).

Please Help! Thanxs.

Try taking the four "hat" pics, crop 'em square, and arrange them as panels; (square layout) Try to get your head to look the same size in each panel. Arrange the quartering views of your face opposite each other diagonally. Sorta like the old Andy Warhol/Marilyn Monroe deal, only without the color separation; this will suggest versatility to your prospective clients. That, or multiple personality disorder. :mrgreen:
