Another Crawl Thread - Ricky

i get what you are saying woodlee, but think about yourself as an example... you have mad skills and lets just say you worked at OCC and they kept you in the back doing production work... now you did work for them, but you have the skills that should be on tv but they are not because they have enough people doing that, so years down the road is it more beneficial that you "worked" for OCC or that you worked for OCC and were in the show "American Chopper"... either way is impressive, but his age as well as yours should not dictate his professional treatment....

besides if CRAWL goes under, they will be has beens, nobody will give a **** about them, i think a position w/ petersen's, off road, or any other main steam media will be more benefial in the long run....

Point taken but here is the deal. When I was in college I worked at a wooden boat shop. It was the best learning experience of my life. i was the behind the scenes guy that did work and never was appreciated by the public. That is part of going through the trials of getting where your going. I didn't have time to put to doing what i do now. I have been there and I just took in everything i could lean and how I did and didn't want to run my business.

If I was a college kid and had a chance to work at American Chopper then I would have been there in a hot minute. Future employers would have know where I worked last. They would have not had a doubt about the quality of their work. It would have been beneficial to me then. Then when i opened up a business it would have made my work credible right off the bat. Just like it will for Ricky.

Ricky is in the same boat. He is dedicating time to school. His age should not dictate his treatment because he is talented, but his choice for school will. He is making the right choice with school and just because the magazine left him out of one issue when the last one was full of his work is not mistreating him. I am sure a lot of the guys get their work rotated in and out of the mag. We don't pay attention to it because we don't personally know them.


About working for Peterson's would you rather take a mag from them or CRAWL to an interview with some one that didn't have a clue who either of them was. The CRAWL magazine is higher quality hands down. The primedia stuff feels like a auto trader magazine when you pick it up where CRAWL feels like a high quality mag.


Also did no one notice that they are using one of his pics for a add in the new magazine.

Ha, the whole board is down. I like how he put it on somebody else!

"John and Brandon did a few things that just went against my morals, in an effort to do anything, right or wrong, to keep the company afloat. I understand their desire to keep it rolling but not at the expense of personal relationships and screwing 3rd parties out of monies owed. There's a right way and a wrong way, and they chose the low road on this."

CRAWL is still very much in business. Tim didn't get fired, he quit because he didn't agree with the management. Timbercrawler.com is down because it was on CRAWL's sever and Tim is moving it to a new server. That is all.



Wonder if the "screwing 3rd parties out of monies owed" is talking about stories Ricky has had done but rags that have never printed???


...and so I wonder what happens to my Advertising credits :dunno: since both dudes that made the deal with me are gone.

preaching to the choir man...
 
I don't have much time so I just skimmed what most wrote, but...

XRRA Jellico and Hannibal were supposed to be shot for the mag, but then due to timing were put off for the website. Other web articles include the Wheelers for Wounded ride put on by Georgia Rock Rods. Supposedly these web articles pay the same and will be posted when the website is done. (I never wrote the articles except for one)

This should be issue 17 I believe. If so issue 18 will have XRRA finals, and 19 will hopefully have my Chocolocco shoot. Like Woody said I haven't had the time for shoots like I used to have due to school. I probably won't be doing many other shoots other than XRRA next year either for the same reason.

I'm not sweating that I had nothing in this issue, I got enough in the last one to last me financially for a little bit.

Last but not least... BUY SOME PRINTS! laughing1

Good luck. I cannot tell you how disgusted I am with all that.

Yeah, they aren't selling like I expected, especially not to competitors. I've sold a good bit to local wheelers though.(thanks guys!)

As soon as I can I'll upload Gray Rock XRRA, I think it's been 6 months?
