Usps tracking seemed to have some issues in the past few days. My Liberal Blue Brobot left Las Vegas and there are no updates on the tracking page since. Is this across the board?

Hah, k cool. Hope you guys like the shots.

The second one I edited the RAW to give a little effect to it. The color of the cap is closest to the first pic, although I did edit that one as well just to clean it up.

Now I just need more BroBots! They are so photogenic.

Edit: Here is the other one that wasn't showing as well:

The best colours are always the most difficult to photograph!

I also find that I have this problem. Or I just suck at photography. It could be that too. :)

No, it's the same with Clacks - the most interesting colours are the most difficult to photograph.

I doubt it. I use a pro camera with great macro glass and getting the right color isn't easy even with post processing. It is just the way light hits the key and the way the camera exposes. Just try to get it as close as you can and mess with the temperature in post.

I have one, but personally I think the best shots are when desk items are in the background. Seeing the edge of my interface or a cable adds a nice touch.

I'd use a light box (light tent) when I am selling something or trying to display a created product/project.

Haha. Ya, I only have two relatively inactive threads setup in there so it stays reasonable. I learned that quick.

guys....i KNOW you are out there improperly storing your zombros.

zombros need to be kept chilled or they start to misbehave.

so please, fellow bros, PM me, the official zombro habitat manager of The Great Big Igloo ('Canada' is what people like to call us...just silly if you ask me), and I promise to keep this zombro menace away from your dear V2s and clacks.

tl;dr

pm me so we can trade your zombros for my zombie victims

Well SP was a bubble mailer which can explain why I am still waiting for the brocap.

Fire Brand · « **Reply #2072 on:** Tue, 15 July 2014, 12:28:44 »

I highly doubt we have missed anything, Brocaps seems to remove posts on the sale thread once its over and move it to the previous sale post in the thread until that happens you have not, also he tends to give a lot of warning, I'm sure it will be soon anyway all this waiting means is that he has more time to make more bro? Maybe adding more to the sale giving more people a chance

I dont think you missed it. I stalk the Bro Caps threads almost constantly ( :pokerface: ) and haven't seen anything to suggest the raffle already happened.

Patience. Site hasn't been updated yet.

Psybin · « **Reply #2079 on:** Wed, 16 July 2014, 10:15:50 »

The raffle will be interesting, and probably more fair to people. Although there will probably be a large influx of people vying to get caps, so they may be harder to get.

I'll miss the countdown to clicking send though. That is a huge rush, like hearing my heart pound in my ears rush, and I've been super lucky the last 3 or 4 of them. I'll miss them, but I'm glad I got to do a few before it went away.

at least for this first one, it will only be open to people who entered the july 5 sale but didn't make it.

just don't post it to reddit

I thought this will now be open to all who weren't successful in the last sale regardless if they sent an email or not.

Calm thy jimmies.

If you didn't make it into the Independence Day sale you'll be eligible for this sale. That means if you entered and didn't win, you'll be eligible, and if you didn't enter at all, you'll be eligible.

Unfortunately this is going to make it harder for me to win bros, but I think that's fair. I was fortunate with the old system, but this is more fair to everyone.
