I'm waiting for the one where we win the World Series. I won't care if it is blurred and the colors are wrong. It will mean more to me that the other celebrations.

I can do hi-res post-game celebration pics from the locker room. A couple of guys pouring champagne over each other's heads. But they're all very vertical pictures. If you're still interested, maybe I can stick two of them together.
I'm in class now. When I get home, I'll stick up some Oswalts. I use a method that's sort of a secret and it all depends on which Getty Images a certain sports website decides to put on their page. There's a fear that if too many people start accessing these photos that the website admin will notice and will stop putting them up (I don't know why they do in the first place). But if anyone reeeeealllly wants to know the very simple method of getting hi-res pics from, well, sportsline.com, e-mail me at enewsom@gmail.com with a promise to keep it under your hat. --Eric |

I found only two photos with Biggio and Oswalt, but they can be used as desktop wallpapers.
Here is Biggio photo, he is on left ( you can see his smile ) and pouring champagne over Roger Clemens who is on the right.  .Here is Roy Oswalt photo, celebrating and getting hugged on the field by Phil Garner after game.   |

You're welcome TheLidge. I play MVP on PC, unfortunately. Well, fortunately for me because I love to mod the game. I'm currently working on adding the '86 Astros to a mod of classic teams.

Me? I'm a lowly grad student. I just know a secret.
Minute Maid Park? Well, those are a bit easier. From visithoustontexas.com From a family's blog A bunch from a Tri-City Valley Cats fan From ballparksofbaseball.com Another one from a family blog. --Eric |

Eric, You say you have a secret. Could it be that you are stealing COPYRIGHTED photos from the Associated Press? And other news services? There are some tough laws in the country concerning this. Just asking....... |

I'm not sure, astrophoto. What I've done is take photos that are on sportsline.com, change the name of the file a little, and save the resulting larger images. They're available for anyone who can discern the very simple naming convention on the sportsline.com servers for all to see. I could link directly to the lot of the current images if I wanted.
I don't want to mess around with legal departments though, and I don't want to get this forum into trouble, so I've removed the images above. --Eric |

As long as you are not making money (or hindering the copyright holder from making money) from the pictures I don't see how there is any copyright violation.
