OK, I need to get a pic of a Gen1 to use in a Haro advert for Ride BMX mag, its basically a "30yrs of BMX" Haro ad.
I need something as old as possible but clean as a whistle? I know its cheeky as I/they (UK distro) cant/wont offer anything for the pic other than it being in an advert.
Anyone? Need it by 5.30am when I leave for work.... no presure of course!

looks like I was too late in asking for the pics & the UK distro has already done the advert which is a shame however, they are talking over doing a double page "timeline" advert for the folowing issue which could be interesting & may require some help from you guys>?

aint usually too fussed for a lot of the oldskool stuff myself matey but thats a pretty bloody special bit of kit................ :daumenhoch:
-
Bit cheeky of them to expect it for nowt though DJ? I bet everybody else involved in that advert is getting paid.......grrrrr........ ;)
I don't mean you (obviously), But I do so hate pisstakers.
-
its not for haro driectly, its for the UK distrobutor.... they didnt say "get us a good pic for free" they just asked me if I had one & I saw it as an opportunity to maybe use one of these guys rides? When I said "they wont pay" (in a roundabout way) I just meant... "I aint going through the whole issue of how much etc..." if you get what I mean?
The guys who designs the adverts works for the distro so he gets paid of course, its his job!
but, I do get your point Rob! :LolLolLolLol:
-
so did they get a pic of one dj, whos was it?
Dave
-
I believe they used one from some freestyle site? js freestyle or sumin? problem is, the concept is great "1978-2008 30years of Haro" but like I expressed to them, the 1st Haro freestyle bike was 82' so... Im sure you se my point which is why the "timeline" advert will work better
