Orange Dream. What is the big deal?

No hate, as it is a relatively muted and mild base morph. I just got this wonderful little female for my collection:

who will no doubt lose some of her sizzle in the years before she breeds, but what is spectacular about OD is what you can do with it. There are so many combinations yet to be seen on the open market and it intensifies color and cleans pattern. Here is a few that made it one of our dream morphs since starting:

IT'S AN INCREDIBLE COMBINATION MORPH IMO!

can we agree orange dream is either just as good as enchi or not as good as enchi, but not better than enchi?

because when i see multi-gene morphs, and compare them with the same multi-gene morph with enchi added, i think enchi delivers at least as much.

p.s.: i still think the orange fades... while the pattern on that inception still stays incredible.

I would put them on par with what they bring to combinations, but in a different way. I bet people said the same things about Enchis years ago when they were first discovered, as they are relatively "boring" in a base morph but bring amazing things to combos. I see OD in that league, and I think it will be as sought after in 5 years or less for what it adds to combinations and a collection. That's just my thought, and I know many don't agree but not all examples of the OD look normal as they age, but granted they lose their intensity but retain some orange. So do a lot of other base morphs though.....isn't that a primary goal of us creating combinations....to enhance and retain each individual gene better then they are on their own?

dont know what to say.... except that: it wasnt me, dont shoot the messenger.

EDIT: i saved the other one, and as long as the link works here it is for comparison:

sorry, I am confused as well, am I not allowed to use WOBP pictures? Never claimed it was mine and certainly never touched photos. Just a combo that proves the capability of the OD. Did I mess up? :(

the color has been changed dramatically. And i have both files on my harddrive and can make them available at any time and any place.

dont you see the color difference between the two images? And dont you see that it is THE SAME SHOT? I conclude that one of the images is manipulated.

sorry, cannot resist, too nice a pun..... orange "DREAM".

EDIT: in case you are wondering, the upper link goes directly to the file hosted by worldofballpython in the big morph list. The second link goes to an image file hosted at sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net , some file-hoster i dont know.

no idea, but I took the URL from where I shared it on my Facebook page straight from WOBP.. I didn't and have no reason to touch the image. Tonight is not my night here, and is really burning me out on this so I am going to get some sleep. No idea why there is a slight change, maybe compression from Facebook? Sigh

I keep looking, and honestly don't see it. I would appreciate a few different opinions on it as I see no difference. Again, the image had been shared via the WOBP Facebook page and re-shared on my page which is where I grabbed the URL from. No funny business. Man, I am burned on the forums tonight...seems every intended innocent post gets bombarded for some reason

it may be a technical issue, ill get a screenshot of what i see, host it somewhere, and post it here.

Thanks, because honestly they look the exact same on my end and don't understand why that would be different. Sorry to vent my frustrations, just get very concerned about that because don't want the rep of altering or photo shopping WOBP photos :-(
