I would not purchase anything from someone incapable of using punctuation, Enchi or not :roll eyes:
In all seriousness, if you are selling animals you should try your best to present a professional image. Just my opinion.

I am not trying to upset the guy i was trying to sell her to, i was given info from the breeders i sent pics to of her.
I'm not labeling her as a pastel enchi now.
I wanted to make sure i didn't label her wrong, but when you hear from 3 top breeders that she has the right pattern color and belly, you tend to trust them over anyone else.
But like i said I'm trying to produce good, correctly labeled animals and now have doubts of even asking the big breeders of fear of them not taking a good look at the pics before making a decision on them.
I sincerely apologize to anyone i have offended in this process.
I will be more in tune to research well before labeling the animal hence the reason i asked bp.net.
Thank you all for your input

It was your giant run on sentence that was the problem. If you want to sell something to someone, you need to come across professional. Proper punctuation and the capitalization of words after a period is a good start. Not a slam, just something you should work on.

Well, you don't need an expensive camera to take decent pictures, you just need a little tweaking.
First, choose a fairly light colored background that is a solid color. White is good, but also tan, blue and light green. Try to avoid yellow, orange and red because that messes with your camera. Or go with deep black.
Get good lighting. A lamp in the corner isn't going to cut it. If you have CFB bulbs, they can help provide truer colors. Using a desk lamp or two with CFB bulbs and an overhead light will help immensely.
Don't get too far away from your subject. Get as close as you can and have your camera focus. The best shots for morph ID or selling is one close up head, one belly, and one or two full body pattern.

My opinion is that if your biggest contribution to a thread is harping on someone's grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc...you'd be doing everyone a service by not commenting in the first place. You can deal with it and try to contribute something of value pertaining to the subject at hand, or you can move on to the next thread. Not saying it's the case here, but not everyone has been afforded a solid education, or has the capacity to proofread their own writing. Not everyone is capable of wording everything so eloquently either.
If it's that bothersome to you, I'd be glad to point you to a couple very well known breeders that have crap grammar...maybe you'd be nice enough to send them an e-mail asking them to present themselves in a more professional manner as well.

Well said +1
To be real, alot of people just dont care, dude
This is a time when we do not write, or speak english, its all slurred up and weird, we speak and write american, and there is no punctuation.
Now if i was writing a term paper....
