I think what you are saying is fine, you are smart for doing it. Kingsnake allows you to put your business website tag on the page also..I looked. I dont think that someone taking a beautiful photo of a newly hatched snake & showing it off & then posting it for sale is really wrong either. Low rent was maybe the wrong way to put it (was the wrong way - sorry). What I maybe should have said is that posting a show-off pic and then having it for sale is maybe a 'white lie' sales technique.

What I do not think is right, and what I sometimes believe happens, is two or more people(or business interests) get together and agree ahead of time to post here (and elsewhere) with the express intent of hyping up a certain type of morph that they have inventory and want to market as the next or greatest thing. They draw unsuspecting hobbiests (you and me) in by posting ultra flattering photos and by describing the superior beauty and breeding potential and money making possibilities of the snake. This is done not for purpose of discussion, or learning, or the sharing of a common passion, but only to draw attention and stir excitement up among the masses (aka potential customers - you and me again). Then a little while later the same 'must have' new trait(or even over looked trait) or morph is available at a ground floor entry price in the classified section.

That aint right.
