Or you can search the source code and look for the HTML tagging SRC IMG= and just cut and paste that... not that hard...

And just wondering? WHO is this VIC FANATIC everyone keeps talking about? By the way Yankee.Stub responds, it sounds like it's him? Are they one in the same?

Yup its him. He joined last week and is a senior member already.

All men are created equal with screen shots.

You know you can find a code that won't allow people to steal your pictures. When they right click on the mouse the pop-up can just say what you want.

Stil doesn't work. You can take a screenshot of the image.

Photo-shop...that was the 2 minute version...with 5 minutes I could make it seamless. And I'm a photo-shop novice. An expert could do a much better job.
People on blogs and random sites scrap my photos from my website all the time. But I consider watermarks to be clutter. Stealing an image is not the same as stealing the actual item. This is why paypal is awesome. If you do not receive an item or the item is not as described, you get your money back.

If a real Lebron or Kobe was available on Ebay for this prices you quoted 1/2 this forum would trample each other to buy them. MEIGray is currently auctioning one of each worn in one game (this Christmas) and the current bids for both are over seven grand with 10 days to go in the auction. A Marino from 1997 obtained directly from Mounted Memories Dan's longtime exclusive agent (he also has a stake in the company) was a late addition to the Hunt superbowl auction and closed at 5,500 before the 15% buyer's fee.[/quote]


So fake or not real stuff on eB..? Now that is shocking to hear!


My jerseys are worth about 75% what I had paid for them - got a dealer come by and make me an offer I CAN REFUSE.

May be I am stubborn, but I choose to keep my loss then sell them to minimize the loss.


So again - these are nice to look at, it's more like a reminder how reckless one can be and then.... it's another day!

I asked a couple of days ago for an email from Vic about what HR balls he has and didn't even get that.

So a guy that registers his name on the Forum as Vic Fanatic which obviously is a ficticious name should be banned until he proves he is real.

I think Vic is enjoying being the center of attention and I join in with others who are growing tired of this type of "member".

Who want to be the center of the attention?


Where did I say I want attention?


As for your request of the HR Balls, scroll up buddy and read my response about your inquiries.


I cant even pay attention to my collection and now I need you to help me to be the center of my attention? Wow, really?


As for photoshop, why would I have to go to that extreme? Unless I want to fool somebody otherwise.


Oh, just in case, my jerseys are not worth in the $10K as some one mentioned on here. You can still get them for $3500 (Marino), $4500 (kobe), $4500 (Lebron) ... search eB.. you will find some and you can make offer on those too.


As for being a Fanatic, I am more like a lunatic who willing to spend whatever if my bills allow. So everyone has different threshold. Mine is anything and everything sports related.



Attached were my playoff game tickets this past year at the stadium - those legends seats were mostly empty during the year, but when playoff rolls around - everyone want to be there. Could have trade those tickets for some really good game used stuff - but hey, you only live once.


"notice the row?"


Got two game used balls from that game - got both signed by Mariano and Alex (which I paid $175 and $250 respectively)


Again, worth every penny![/quote]

I'm still wondering why people bothered to engage him...and are still talking about him. The only reason he kept posting was that people kept replying.

I try to not to reply and I DIDNT.


Your point is well taken ... maybe the rest should do the same, right?

Since pictures have not been provided yet, I would like to refer back to a certain saying that is used on countless other message boards, SCAN OR BAN!

Chris - As Joel and BTPH talk about photoshopping, I think the only way we will see photos of any of Vic Fanatic's game used UDA jerseys and the Yankees HR balls will be when he can PHOTOSHOP a collection.

I am also one of those boxed in basement guys but I can certainly produce photos fairly easily.

If stealing your photos is a problem you fear, just do as mb23 recently did and put a watermark.

protects your property and does question photo ownership if the userid of the poster and photo does not match as I do right now on this post.
