You have always had a gold star in my book homie....Goes without need for mention...

On a more serious note:

The majority of the detailers mentioned in this thread are some of the top notch in this profession. Not only do I feel that they are the top notch in this field but the contacts and relationships that I have established with them to improve my skills and make my details better is amazing. I can`t even imagine where I would be without them and my countless questions :thx ...

Thanks you two! I really need my ego stroking after getting OWNED by a black S4 yesterday.

**imported_DetailDan** · 02-11-2008, 07:23 PM

TH0001, VaSupershine, rydawg, TOGWT...

Some threads are more important than others.

Some threads have more credibility than others.

So, here we are, writing in the Professional Forum. How many of the Professionals mentioned have taken the time to attend Barrett-Jackson, SEMA, NXTi, NAPDR, MTE, let alone actually host nationally sponsored seminars for enthusiasts?

How many of the Professionals mentioned actually generate substantial gross revenue ($200K+)?

I don`t care that I`m not mentioned, as I don`t accept the criteria. Posting images on `Click and Brag` (no matter how extensive) can`t possibly be your criteria... please!

If the `pro` is really working, then he does not have the time or incentive to truly (and frequently) document everything he does.

My business cooks - I write this, not from Carmel, IN, but Napa Valley Wine Country - a 5 day vacation that I can justify in February.

Bitter? No, actually sorta leathery, with a hint of tannin, and a dash of maturity.

Hey, Joe! Jump in!

Jimmy Buffit and SpoiledMan. You get props also.

How could I forget you two. Sorry that you were not in my original post.

Please forgive.

**LanceM** · 02-11-2008, 11:30 PM

Surprisingly, many people do use that as a way to judge other detailers. Some have basically said to me that Im not allowed to criticize their work because I dont post enough pictures myself. IMO, its not in the pictures one posts, but in their advice to others. Pictures dont show much.
