excellent creation...
would you consider signing it somewhere out of the way, so we can give credit due but not interrupt the overall image??
understandable if your reluctant, but i suppose all the images are previously copyrighted.

either way cheers and thanks for taking the time and sharing it, its very enjoyable to look at.

the watermark is just there while we're here playing around with it, i am not looking to sell it or make money from this...but at the same time i wouldnt want it appearing anywhere else...

when i am done there will be no watermark , not looking to sign it at all....and the size will be 6000 pixels across so about 6x larger than the silly jpeg example you see here..

i reckon we could still fit another 5/6 images by squeezing the ones there a bit! Get suggesting people!

lol a bit, the biggest time consuming thing is FINDING good large images...if guys want to suggest somebody PLEASE post me a suitable pic, no use just posting the name...

and bare in mind thse requirements:
main theme is subs...few execeptions ok but prefer to keep it 'sub' heavy...
a pic that looks good in black and white
sharp large images
an icon that reflects 'vintage' ,more than contemporary icons...
i havent added any women...i think its a poster about 'men'

today been a bit busier than expected, will 100% continue though, just need a bit of time...

Sorry, but you made it political by including those people in your 'icons' (usually people who are celebrated and revered) poster, so you can't then tell me it's only about watches and not politics. They are extremely political and controversial figures. That is what they are known for

Otherwise, using your stance, if they are available, why not include photos of other nice people who more than likely wore Rolex, such as Saddam Hussein, Idi Amin and Colonel Gaddafi... or have they not become acceptable or cool 'icons' in pop culture as per Castro and Guevara?

YES they are 'cool' photos in my opinion, nothing watsoever to do with them being 'nice people' as you so sarcastically put it.....in fact i dare say that other than the 'holllywood' actors in the photos (brando,bonds newman etc) they are some of the 'coolest shots' on there...thats why i have added them and some more than once...and anyway we are talking 'rolex icons' not world/life/morality/political icons...

maybe we are truly in IBTL territory...
