I am beginning a super top secret project that YOU can be a part of!

Well...ok, it's not exactly "top secret", I'm just not quite ready to reveal it yet, until I am sure it will come together as I envision. If it does, it will be a HUGE asset to both BP.net and to the ball python world in general.

What I need from all of you is your help in collecting pictures...specifically of ball python morphs. ALL morphs!!! My focus in the beginning will be on single-gene base morphs...recessive, dom, and co-dom. With the co-dom morphs, I need pictures of the "het" form as well as the homo (super) form. (ie: I need pictures of both yellow bellies and ivories, pastels and super pastels) If pictures of combo morphs are submitted, I will accept and keep them aside for later when I reach that stage of the project.

What I am specifically looking for in these photographs:
  • Full body shots that clearly show pattern and color
  • Belly shots
  • Close ups of details specific to that morph (ie: The green eye in pastels)
  • Clear, crisp photos without background distractions
  • The identity of the morph must be included with the submitted picture


There should just be one snake per photo submitted, UNLESS: you can submit a picture of the morph paired with a normal for comparison OR if you have multiple snakes of the same morph in the same picture. Please don't submit pictures with two or more different morphs, unless specifically requested at some later point.

Do NOT send us someone else's pictures. You don't necessarily have to own the morph in the picture, but you MUST own the picture.

I'm looking for multiple pictures of ALL morphs. So if you see that someone has already submitted pastel pictures (for instance) you should still submit yours as well.

All photos used in the final project will be fully credited to their owners, with BP.net screen names, at the very least, and your full name if I have it.

Photos may be submitted to me via PM or simply by replying to this thread and including them in your post. Submission of photos to this project constitutes full agreement that BP.net has your permission to host and freely use the photo in perpetuity.

If you have your own albums online somewhere on your own website, and would like to make any/all of those pictures available, please just let me know either here in this thread or via PM, so that I'll have a written record of the permission given, and I can then collect the pictures myself, rather than you having to go to the effort to repost them here.

Thank you all in advance for your help and support! The more morphs we can collect...and the more quality, individual photos of each morph we can collect...the more value this project will have!
