Help with my project

I've been a freestyle website and graphic design for about 6 years now and with some help from friends im creating a caresheet website for T's (possibly reptiles and other arachnids). I know there are many caresheet websites out there but most of them are very unorganized and quite frankly plain boring. So basically, i want to make a nice looking website which is very simple to browse. I want people (instead of searching for caresheets on google and just clicking on the best search) to always rely on my website instead when they need to look up a caresheet. I currently have 4 people helping on this project and more people are always welcome to attribute...speaking of attribute;

Now to my question...there are currently over 900 tarantula species so imagen how hard it is to find pictures of tarantulas which are not copyrighted. It also takes up time finding pictures of T's you really like and then have to email the photographer and ask for permission. Sometimes it takes up to a week to get an answer and it's not always a positive answer.

So if anyone have a good quality picture of their T and want it featured on my website i'd really appreciate it. Your name (maybe a nick if you want to stay anon) will be under your picture so that you get full credit for the picture.

I will not give out any more information about the website yet, i don't want the admins to mistake this for being advertising - im simply asking for help. However, if some people do decide to donate some pictures, since the picture are from this forum, tarantulaforum.com will be advertised on the website.

I guess you could post your picture in the thread or in a PM if you do decide to donate. By sending me a picture of your T or posting it in this thread you give me permission to use the picture solely for the purpose of using it on the website. Please don't send me any pictures from google or other website which are not yours - i will know the difference

If you don't want to donate a picture - thank you anyway..you deserve it for reading through all this :D

* Picture needs to be pretty much of the tarantula - try to avoid showing half the terrarium. People are interested in seeing tarantulas and not enclosures. Hehe :p

what do you mean by baby t's? :)

It has to be big enough to see the colors as you would in an adult, therefore slings and such can't be put up..however we're thinking of a gallery so your T's will be up on the website anyway - if you want to.

I'm sure Karina will use this opportunity as an excuse to be even more of a diva lol
Probably! I think pink toes are quite subtle about showing off tho like women who spend 3 hours getting ready to go out and when someone tells them they look nice they say "oh i just wore the first thing i found in the wardrobe. I havent even done my hair."
