Check out the latest Turf Mag. The Lawnsite article this month seems longer than usual and a picture that made me laugh is becoming famous. Maybe Paul has a future in photography! How many recoginize their own posts?

Jodi was telling me about this article too. Before everyone jumps on me for getting credit for Paul's picture, read this thead. http://www.lawnsite.com/showthread.php?threadid=10475&pagenumber=2

I gave Paul credit for it, but JimK must of forgot this. I told him, Paul took it and I posted it for him.

Anyway, I am anxious to see this anyway. I hear it is a big article. Also I got my first posts in the magazine, 2 of them. :D

Yep, I was laughing when saw that pic. I had to immediately message Eric to see if he saw it. Yes Lawnsite got a nice amount of coverage this month in Turf.

Did only two members here get Turf today? I think us Midwesterners are getting taken, we don't get our Turf magazine for about 2 days after you Easterners get yours. Makes me sad and blue. :(

Or.....


Could it be that Turf Magazine knows how special us ladies are, so they make sure we get the magazine first :)

Some posts were taken from these 2 threads. Maybe more threads were used, but I'm too tired to search thoroughly on this.

I got mine today. The Lawnsite ad will boost the hits here!

BUT, Chuck what about the logo change? Never have heard about the ones I sent in. You really need one in a better format available for things like the Turf ad. The jpg or whatever was used is not going to cut it in the future. You need a crisp logo in those ads to show how CRISP this site is!

Here is the thread started last Friday on this same subject you just started a thread. We get so many posts now that if you miss a day, you get about 3 pages behind. I think this one was on page 5. Last Wednesday to Thursday in 24 hours, we had a total for all the forums of a little over 700 new posts. ;)

Skookum:

Every issue that Turf does an article on Lawnsit.com, we get a lot of new members from this. I noticed over the week end we had several new members saying they found Lawnsite from Turf. :)

A little back ground on this picture.
Paul took this picture and sent it to me to see. When I saw the perfect opertunity to post it in a post, I did. It has become a national photo now. :)

This is the original thread that this picture was put in.

Paul:
What does it take for you to get credit for that picture. I posted on this thread 2 times, now 3 and I did the same thing on 2 other recent threads and I do the same about every time this picture comes up.

Please members, Paul took that picture, I posted it.

Tell Paul how good of a photographer he is. :)

Paul!! I think that you have done a fantastic effort in creating a poster child for Scrubsmopolitan Magazine.:) Nice work.

Jim from TURF here ... Okay, okay, okay ... I screwed up. I forgot to credit Paul for the photo in TURF (with the lawnsite column). I PROMISE to include this as a correction in the April issue.

(So anyway, Eric ... why ARE you trying to claim credit for Paul's great photo ...)

Hey guys,

I think that we should start a turf signing tour. Everyone who has been quoted in there. Plus we'll find the guy on the bike to be our main attraction...

Any takers :)

Jim, I did my best to not get credit for it, but I still did anyway. :) It has been a classic picture here at Lawnsite and now it made the big time. :)
