They were painted by R&G Autobody in Woodinville, and it was between $4-500, I'd have to look it up to find out for sure.

redlude97 and I performed the disassembly and reassembly, and Eight08Flip was the soldier providing us with moral support and carting my *** around at 3:00am the night before HIN.

From what I understand, a lot of them didn't come out. Which is to be expected. Any photoshoot, especially one like this, if you walk away with ONE good picture, you did well.

That makes sense, since the camera was bouncing while doing the rig shots, and with the less than ideal lighting we had, for the most part. There may be a few others that are worth showing, but I'm not sure. I guess Alvin/Vince would know...

Hey're your pics, so I think you should do whatever you want. Are they offering you any compensation? Well, either way, I say go for it since you're not in it for the money or the fame, but just for fun. Wish they would've picked one with my car in it too

NWN is classified as a non-profit organization. However, I'm not exactly sure what they do with the funds they receive from selling paraphernalia (shirts, calendars, stickers), from BBQ's, and of course the bulk of it coming from paying site sponsors. the old school founders and mods that I knew when I joined are gone now. That site is now run like a concentration camp...lol...and none of that money seems to go directly towards benefiting members in any way. Doesn't cost much to pay for the site hosting, and they never lose money on official meets, so the money they make goes into their coffers, and then to.....???

I'm 50/50 on wanting to support NWN or not. There's a reason why I don't post on that forum anymore or basically attend any of their function(s). That place is full of pimpled face virgins that think they know what they are talking about but end up just talking out of their a$$es.

For example:

I'd find out what they are planning to do with the proceeds before agreeing to let them use your pics.

They don't have "employees." It's just a hobby forum like any other one. Like all forums, the moderators "on staff" don't get any form of compensation.
