The Gunner Kiel inscriptions are now obsolete

Or, maybe they are now premium?

Still not a fan of any of the products and certainly not a fan of BG as a human being. But I will play nice for two seconds and offer some constructive criticism. Only because I'm in a good mood from having spent Fri and Sat at the range with my new AR15 and today is Super Bowl Sunday.

1. Mugshot photos are not eye appealing and look like a 3rd grade school project.
2. The purple and green auto aren't eye appealing, especially the purple. In any of the products.
3. The inscriptions just don't do it for me. As a collector I don't want to see "Thanks mom" on a card that I'm collecting. Some may like it. Again, I think it's grade school.

If the photography looks unprofessional, so will the product it's used in.

Suggestions.
Maybe requiring the signers to stay within certain guidelines as to what they can and cannot sign. Just a thought.
The pics on Topps Photoshoot cards are pretty good. Maybe experiment with different backdrops and definitely settle on one distance being the same on all cards. Having some at head and torso level and others straight up in your face pics look bad.

As an example, the Green-Beckham looks great. Perfect photo, nice classy blue signature. Eye appealing card all the way around.

So essentially you hate BG (who knows why) and everything he does ... so why even bother posting in the thread?

The only way to get on card autos is from the promotional photos from when the kid is selected to the game. That means photos taken by various photographers across the country at press conferences.
Why the hate on inscriptions? In general, most are like the Kiel and are "Go (insert team name here)" Makes no senese to try and give guidelines to a high school about what not to write

Titans,
the ONLY way get on-card is using the tour photos.... EVERYONE wants on-card, this is the choice... There will be game images with sticker autos... BG

BG,

For future draft or prospect products, is a pre planned photoshoot set up possible? Controlled enviroment, specific pic set up. Better than using just what's available. I'm sure cost effectiveness is a factor, as well as player availability.

When are these coming out? I need some Brian Kimbrow cards!
