By the way, if some of you want these pics as your avatar, I can size them down for you. Just PM me.

I was just thinking about doing that with Catch's pic. But I don't like the two-tone background behind her. I wish they would've taken 1 more of just her. I'd rather use the one where she receives her Olympic jersey. |

When/why did you change your username. That was tripping me out!

The 96 Uniforms were the best! Those rocked it! The Rebook uniforms looked nice. The Nike World Championship uniforms (2006) were sharp.
I think 08 uniforms are pretty average.
On a separate note, does anyone know if they are going to make the women's olympic jerseys? I bet they would make a nice piece of changet with some Candace Parker Olympic jerseys (not that I'd buy one but still...) Are they going to have separate apparel with "USA Women's Basketball"?

I hope she hired a wardrobe stylist too! I can't believe she wore that little brown sweater, with a white bra, at her hiring press conference! She HAD to have known that the white bra would show through!
What about those suspenders she use to wear??? omg lol
Now, Al Brown has taken the reigns of the horrible fashion icon - especially with those 1980s Bill Cosby sweaters! yuck....
btw: Is Joanne Boyle dressing better at Cal than she was when she was at Duke and Richmond?? She was strug-gliiiiiiiiin....

A glance at other images taken by this photographer shows that she has done far better work than these. |
Just curious, what is it you don't like about them? Does it have to do with the lighting, the composition, contrast or what? |
For starters, yes. Quantity of light is inadequate, which, in addition to causing the images to be underexposed, negatively affects the color quality resulting in, among many other things, the red uniforms to be blown and skin tones that are just slightly off.
But merely an inadequate quantity of light is just the lowest bar that wasn't cleared. There should be a fully realized concept of lighting on display here. Some signature techniques that effect the quality of the lighting and reflect the quality of the photographer shooting the portraits.
The rest must absolutely be said via PM. Check your inbox._________________ Every woman who has ever been presented with a career/sex quid pro quo in the entertainment industry should come forward and simply say, “Me, too.” - jammer The New York Times 10/10/17 |

I know Lisa and Tina are probably saying peace; but I guess they could easily be saying were #2. |
lisa is holding up 4 fingers in one photo. what's that represent?
and is nobody #1, #2 or #3? |
4, meaning this will be her 4th olympic games! And hopefully her 4th GOLD!

That's what I want to know as well. I like the jersey. Anyone know?

Ok...visited the USA Basketball website and the only jerseys they have in their online store are for the men's team. So I've emailed them. We'll see how long it takes to get a response.

They have sold them in previous years but they've also normally had them up well prior to the Games.

Who is hosting these images? Because there's porn-style stuff in the ads above the large shots of Team USA, etc. _________________ Every woman who has ever been presented with a career/sex quid pro quo in the entertainment industry should come forward and simply say, “Me, too.” - jammer The New York Times 10/10/17 |
