My Million Dollar Idea
Don't you think every gym ought to have a private room with perfect lighting and a camera that captures every cut & striation in a variety of angles and poses and in perfect focus, and emails them to you when you're done? I mean, not that it's not entertaining to see everyone of us carefully positioning ourselves under the kitchen light. . . ha, you laugh, but haven't we all been like contortionists trying to get that shadow just right, or ran out of breath after trying to beat the 10-second timer after 20 tries? Huh? . . . People? . . . come on, humor me.
Remember, you heard it here first! August 3, 2007 at 2:02a.m.

Great idea, but I'm sure the room would end up being used by some members for making porn.

 That's a funny Jay. Good one.
It certainly would be a convenience that might work.

Hey, if it makes your muscles look bigger, who knows what else it might improve?

It wouldn't be so bad if they'd clean up after themselves.
But then again, there's so few people at the gym who actually do that anyways, I guess I'm hoping for to much

I'm fine with having my pic taken and then having my head put on this body. I think you can have this done at the fair.

I think it's an EXCELLENT idea!
I find it very daunting to see one thing in the mirror at the gym, then try to take good pix at home (inside or out), and it NEVER looks like what I want or think it should look like!!
So... which is the truer image??
All I know is I still gotta lose 12 to 15 more lbs before I send anything to you jackals online (too embarrassed and don't want to be picked on/laughed at!).
LOL!

I think your response should be "Honey, if I ever saw someone as hot as me, I just may turn gay, but since there is no possibility that will ever happen, you my dear, should just count your blessings that I'm all yours"

Great idea...Mr. GunPowder...I like it...It would certainly make shooting self-flex-posing- pics so much better (easier) and more professional looking.

I agree with you 100%...Mr.bobpal59...in regards to shooting my pics...seeing one thing in the mirror at the gym and then another thing <sadly> in pics at home...ugh...ugh...ugh...glad I am NOT alone in that area of thought.
But I am improving my build...learning...asking questions...growing...changing...so I am being vulnerable (in regards to some of those so-called jackals) by posting some of my pics...here...on BodySpace...taking the good with the bad (comments)...and just for the record...most comments have been very positive, worthwhile, and for my benefit.
So...I therefore encourage you to post your own pics...and move on...move forward...and help another along the way...it will all be to your benefit !
Best regards,
W&P

Well your wife of all people should have ample evidence of your true sexual proclivities! Maybe she needs a reminder.

She is probably jealous and insecure. By ridicuing your self improvement she is hoping she will not have to improve herself or risk losing you. It is a very common theme we here on these boards. The women use the gay terminology to cover up their own inadequacies.

Yeah, if all we want is a fantasy, it's easy to come by. I'd like to see the first 10 years of this guy's pics though. . . think he might have a drawer full of not-ready-for-prime-time progress pics somewhere?

That's right, Red. That's why I call it "My Million Dollar Idea". But, do you think people would pay, say $5, for a five-minute shoot especially immediately after spending an hour pumping up? You wouldn't even have to oil up cuz you're already actually sweating.

Humor is what keeps me from going on a three state shooting spree.
Well, that and the cost of gas.
