bummer

saw this on the computer the other day and it kinda bummed me out.. the Vinyl photo site  

tom arkus is a cool dude but the vibe that the site put off was a bummer.. tom posted this online  "Trying a new concept for a photo blog, i wanted to build a community. It will feature photos from people that know what they are doing in bmx. Get in touch to contribute please if i know you i will most likely post ur pics!"


the fact that it said "i want to build a community" followed by "it will feature photos from people that know what they are doing in bmx" and "if i know you i will most likely post your pics"
    and the first post on the site was "This will only contain Photographs from some of the best people in the bmx industry."


i like vinyl  but its a bummer that that attitude exists. i admit i dont like everything that happens in this hobby. but it shouldnt be elite groups that are better than other groups.. 


have fun with it 


good news though.. clint made the cut of best people in the industry!!




had this picture in my email tonight... stoked!

  1. when tom said "the best people in bmx", i dont think he was talking about the riders, i think he was talking about the photographers..
    and its true...there are some photographers that are better then others...
