Hi Larry, Just wanted to let you know that
I got into every ZAPP show I applied for this year using the new booth
shot you helped me with. I was praying to god that whole weekend it took
to do those that it would help get into more art shows. People, myself
included, underestimate the importance of our booth shot. I wish I would
have smartened up years ago. Thanks so much. You're an asset to everybody
you help! You've always given me good advice and I really appreciate the
extra time you spend helping me. Angela
PetersonI want to thank you for the work you did
with my slides I am so happy to have been accepted to my first
ZAPPlication show ever. I feel that you are a great asset to the artists
you come in contact with and it is really refreshing to find someone as
open and unafraid to share information and offer help when needed. I
really do mean it when I say thank you for all the help you have given me.
Jessica Daman
Hi Larry, I'm 3 for 3 with ZAPP since
having you redo my images. Before that I was 1 - 6 with ZAPP. Just wanted
to let you know. Phillip Singer
Dear Larry, Thank you so much for sending
my images to the Smithsonian on such short notice this morning, and for
all the other times that I've called and you've solved my problems WHILE
I'M ON THE PHONE WITH YOU FOR GOD SAKES! I want you to know that since you
worked on my images that this year I got into Lakefront after trying for
17 years, St. Louis after trying for 13 years and THE SMITHSONIAN after
trying for 20+ years. I knew that the images of my work were the key to
getting into shows, but it took you to turn the key. Thanks again,
Gwen Bennett
Larry,
Nice job. I am very happy to be working with you and Hap. Makes my
life so much easier. All the best, Stephani
Briggs
Larry,
Your work on the two pieces Hap sent to you was just great. I can
hardly wait to get all the pictures looking great. Thanks for you help and
your tips. Sincerely, Sherri & Brite Taylor
Larry: We took a look at the photos you
took for us on ZAPP. They're absolutely beautiful, exquisite. The lighting
and perspective, etc., are all perfect. Thank you very, very much. They're
by far the best photographs of our work we've ever had taken. I keep
hearing a refrain among artists/craftspeople that they can't get into ZAPP
shows. I keep telling them their chances would improve if they'd send
their images to you. Your work certainly improved my lot. Thanks again. Hank Schlau
Hi Larry, Just wanted to thank you for helping us get in
the Melbourne Art Show this weekend. Those zap files you helped us with
did the trick. Now we just need to make it happen and sell a lot of
paintings. Carlos Corvado and Mari
Hey
Larry, You are my Superman for real. My first acceptance with ZAPP since
you did my new stuff. I can't thank you enough, and I can't tell you how
perfectly great you are. Thank you so much, more work coming your way!! I
love you. Susan Lane
I was
taking really good slides but now with many shows and art exhibits
requesting digital images it has been a nightmare. I happened onto Larry’s
site in a desperate attempt to improve my images. I read all the
recommendations but I still wasn’t quite there. I decided to contact
Larry. Just talking to the guy for a few minutes was enough to improve my
photography immeasurably. Then there is the image prep and correction. I
have Corel draw and paint shop pro but I would need to spend a couple
hours each day for a long, long, long, time getting the hang of it. For
just a couple of bucks I ended up with amazing images. In addition I
didn’t have to waste my time struggling with another aspect of this
business that takes me away from what I really love. So thanks Larry You
are my new best friend Sharon Weltner
Hi
Larry, I received my disc yesterday with the 13 slide images. They all
looked great.! It was so kind of you to include several different
resolutions of each slide. These will serve me well in future applications
of a varying sort. Your online instructions for creating ZAPP files for
the North Carolina artist grant application is how I learned
about your services. I'll be sure to pass on my superlative
recommendations to other artists. Nancy
Whittington
Thank
you Larry! The pictures looked very good and the instructions made it much
easier to apply. We appreciate your help very much. It made the whole ZAPP
experience much less frightening. Carl and
Carol Coss
Hi Larry, I finished the application
process. I couldn't have done it without you, so thank you very very much.
I thought you did a great job with what you had to work with! I won't know
until March 15th if I'm accepted or not. I'll let you know! Again, thanks
Larry for not only adjusting my photos, but for the advice and the great
instructions you gave me. I'll be in touch! Myrna Grigsby
Hi Larry. I wanted to let you know that I
got into Forth Worth this year. Wow! So glad I had you work
on my slides and we made the new booth shot. First time in the show since
the mid 80's. Thanks. Geri Lynn
Dear Larry, Again, more thanks to you for
your image assistance. I've been invited to La Quinta after 8 years of
rejection so that is yet more evidence of your expertise. All my best,
Christy Beckwith
Hi Larry. They look great. Your work is so
good and still gets me into most shows I apply to.
Michele Levett
Thanks
Larry. They look WONDERFUL and we really appreciate the incredibly
quick turn around time to help us meet our deadline. We just sent out our
zapplications (after an agonizing first attempt at formatting our display
photo to the square Zapp format) and I thought that we needed to thank you
for your overall efforts. All of the information and instructions that you
provide on the ZAPP web site as well as your own website and the e-mails
that accompany your work are so generously well thought out. I think it's
an incredibly giving gesture in a world where knowledge is power and so
many choose to hold back what they know for that very purpose. And, again,
we have to thank you for helping us get our first photos up when we were
really in a time crunch. Kim Kondrat and
Armando Suarez
I was invited on Thursday to view the
preliminary run through for the Art Fest Fprt Myers before the jurors
arrive on Fri. All I can say is amazing. As long as your
images are done right using all the image area and color punch they are
incredible to see, nowhere near what a slide projector does. I thank
you for the great job you did. They look exactly like my artwork and
jumped right off the wall. If anyone has a chance to see their
work as the judges do you learn allot!!! What to do and not do. Thanks for
all your help much appreciated!!! Barbara
Groenteman
Larry, Thank you so much for working your
magic on our images. You took images taken by our antiquated 1.3 megapixel
digital camera (we'll have a new one ASAP) and made them look better than
we all had expected! We can't wait to see what you can do with images from
our new camera. With much appreciation,
Valentine and Sandy Hart
Dear Larry, I think the new images look
great. Of course I don't have the perspective and insight that you do, but
nonetheless I like how you have cropped them and I see that you were able
to eliminate the imperfections in the white background which is actually
just a big wooden wall that I built for photographic purposes. Once
again, I so appreciate your clear intention to assist us novices with this
process of digital presentation. The longer I'm in the business,
the more focus I can place on gaining admittance to the more lucrative
shows such that I am able to spend more time and energy on my artwork and
with family and friends, enjoying other aspects of life, as opposed to
being on the road quite so much. I suspect that continuing this process
with you will have further positive impact that will ultimately benefit my
entire family. I've been through a great deal physically and taking on too
many shows is not a good option for us. My aching body is eternally
grateful. Christy Beckwith
Hi Larry, I just got home from the
Bellevue Art show in Washington...and it was a huge success. I do feel
that you had a hand in it since you did such a great job with my slides.
Yea! What a great experience it was to be out there with such great
artists and the people were wonderful and I made money so what could be
better and it did not rain...weather was amazing.
Joan Edelmann
Larry- Thanks again for your good
and quick work - I'm forever in your debt. Your work on my other slides
helped get me into the Philadelphia Museum show, which is very exciting.
Thanks! -Fred Kaemmer
Thanks Larry, I really appreciate how well
and efficiently you did everything... Judy
Rand
Larry, I just thought I'd write a note to
say thanks for the great tutorial on formatting digital images for the
ZAPP application system. I'm a first time applicant to art fairs and the
application process seemed daunting. Your tutorial is very clear and I now
understand a lot more about digital images in general. Thanks!
Margaret Bohls
Wow! They look better already! Thanks so
much. I wish I had this earlier. Now, if they don't like my work, I can't
help it. Art is so subjective. At least I know the images are correct.
I've done the best I can. You really did great. Thanks.
Maija Baynes
Dear Larry, I am an old school art show
exhibitor. Twenty two years in the business and always loved the hands on
application to shows. I resisted the ZAPP application system on many
levels. Finally, when a few of my old favorite shows went ZAPP, I had to
do it. When I called you, heels dug in, you walked me through the process
with such professional empathy that the whole perceived "ordeal" went by
in less than an hour one evening and maybe an hour the next morning on my
own sending in the applications. IT WAS PAINLESS. You guided me
step by resistant step and it could not have been easier. I would and will
recommend you to any one who needs to take this step or is up against a
deadline. You are fast, incredibly talented and patient. I am thrilled
with my photos under your skillful touch and proud to send my applications
to the shows using the Zapplication format. I can't thank you enough.
Suzi Thomas
Dear Larry - as I was working on the
narrative, I saw the new image I had asked for appear! My family is now
all crowded around the laptop here looking at the image & cheering. Mom
says, "You are worth your weight in gold, and if we had gold, we'd give it
to you!" Anyway, thanks very much - it looks great. Sincerely,
Samantha Hodge-Williams
Hi Larry, I viewed my profile on ZAPP and would like to thank you very
much for your help and for the instructions. The photos look great and I
truly appreciate the time you took to give me a few pointers/advice. As
soon as I take some more/better photos (hopefully, they'll be much
better), I will contact you again for your help. Warmest regards,
Laura Nigro
Larry, Wanted to thank you for making such great ZAPP pictures for us. So
far we have gotten into several shows that we applied to and are just
waiting on notification from two others. We believe that having you do our
pictures is what helped us get into those shows. Just wanted to let you
know and thank you. Stephanie Shangraw
Larry, My thank you for your work on turning my slides into digital images
for ZAPP is long overdue. I was reminded of that when I got my ACCEPTANCE
for Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts! Last year with my old
slides I was on the wait list, this year with ZAPP, I'm in. So, thank you
for your excellent work, for your quick turn around and for talking with
me about some potential shows. Michael Reimer
Hi Larry, I want to thank you again for
your invaluable help in preparing our images for 35mm slides, ZAPP, and other
digital applications. In the over 32 years we've been jurying for art
fairs, we have never before felt such confidence in the technical quality
of the images of our work. We appreciate your skills, your attention to
detail, and the fact that you keep a great sense of humor while working
with those of us still on the learning curve. You've given us new faith in
our part of the unpredictable process of jurying for art shows. Now, the
only reasons for rejection are that they just don't like our stuff, or
there aren't any openings in our medium! Thank you again.
Lisa Berry
Thanks, Larry. Holy Smokes !! You fixed my
slides in ZAPP, faster than a speeding bullet. I am going to sing your
praises to all the potters (and other artisans) I know who may benefit
from your expertise in adjusting slides for ZAPPlication. What an amazing
difference your magic has done to my jury images. I've visited your
website lots of times over the last few months, thinking I should call,
and now that I have my own "Before and After" images, all I can think is -
why did I wait so long for your help? Thanks again. Jan Robb
Hi Larry, You're
amazing!!!! Thanks for coming to my rescue! It was deadline time and
converting to the online jurying process had me so stressed that when you
suggested I drive 4 hours to come to your studio I was willing and eager
for help. First you corrected, cropped and formatted my slides to
perfection, making what I thought were good slides look great! It was so
helpful to have you show me how to fill out the slide info and upload the
pictures, then walk me through my first application and let me do the
second one myself. That 4-hour drive home was much more relaxing knowing
that the deadline was met and everything was done so well, thanks to you!
Your email instructions are a reminder of every step we took and will help
the next time I do it myself. You're "the best!!!!"
Sue Fleischer
Larry, My images look AWESOME!!!!!! I was so exited
about them that I actually jumped out of my chair !!!! Way to go!
Marji Rawson
Dear Larry, Thought you would like to know that I just
received my first acceptance into Lakefront and the first on ZAPP. Yea!
and thanks again for all your help in making this possible. Your hand was
in there helping to make this happen. Joan Edelmann
Thank you, Larry. Great job!!! I've completed my
modifications and sent off my application to Marion, IA. If I may ask,
have you always been a computer guru or did you do something else in "your
first life"? Anyway, I appreciate you prompt help and rescue.
Diane Thompson
Thanks for your help Larry. They look great! I'll order
the slides tomorrow. Thanks for your time and your patience. I appreciate
that you didn't make me feel stupid. When it comes to technology, I'm a
little out of my element! Jennifer Tubbin
Hi Larry, I just finished my application to ArtsFest and
wanted to thank you for the GREAT work you did on my slides. They looked
wonderful! You really made this whole ZAPP process much easier for me.
Thank god you're around!!! Laurie Jager
Hi Larry, My images that you formatted and prepared for
ZAPP look SUPER! I wanted to Thank You again for helping me ZAPP in the
new year! <grin> You made my transition to ZAPP and applying to my first
show on ZAPP so easy and painless. Preparing my images by myself seemed so
difficult until I asked for your help on the New Years Eve weekend -
You Made ZAPP A SNAP! Thanks Again! - PS I got my 35mm slides
back that you prepared and they look great too! Warmest Regards
Sharon Scalise
Hello Larry, Thanks
again for Zapping the images for my husband, H. Dean Willis.
He is extremely fussy with the quality of images, but I felt very
comfortable sending them to you because of your reputation through NAIA
and fellow artists. He was very satisfied with the way they looked. If
your service was a something you could purchase on EBay, I am confident
you would have 100% positive feedback! Mindy
Willis
THANK YOU! You did a beautiful job, and your e-mail
instructions for me to modify my text was simple also. I will certainly
use you again in the future. And, recommend you to friends that are in
similar situations as I was too. Christine
Nauman
Hi Larry. Great service! Thank you for salvaging our
slide and for your expertise. Evy Rogers and
Joe Jacob
The images look very
good to me, especially compared to the other ones we had. It's been a
pleasure dealing with you and I very much appreciate your prompt and
highly professional work. Susan Keyes
Hernandez
Larry, I was very happy with your good work. Just
finished modifying the images and that was very easy. I will very happily
recommend your work to others!! Thank you!
Barbara Barkley
Hi Larry: Thank you so very much for your terrific help
with the photography needed to apply to the art shows. Your cropping was
exactly how its suppose to be. I also appreciate your doing the entire
entry form Zapplication process for me . I can sleep tonight, knowing
that's its done correctly. I would have been trying for days otherwise.
Joni Armel
Larry, I just went on ZAPP and viewed my
slides for jury presentation. To say that they are great is an
understatement. You took my slides and made them shout...LOOK AT ME.
In addition I appreciate your business style and professional way you
handled the project. You were so informative and patient. Thank you so
very much.....will keep you posted as to my future progress. Best regards,
Joan Edelmann
Larry: Thank you for your digital
adjustments to my ZAPP images! They look great and because of that, I feel
more confident applying to shows using Zapplication. Although I am a
photographer myself, I only have basic digital skills. Your expertise in
this area was a tremendous help to me, and will be to others looking to
stay competitive. Thanks again! Todd Lundeen
Hi Larry! With your excellent help and reassuring manner
I was able to successfully apply to the show I wanted to. The info sheet
you sent along with the notification that you had completed putting my
images on ZAPP was extremely helpful. I printed it and had it at hand
while I modified my images. Thank you! Celia
Dionne
(posted to the Art Fair SourceBook Forum) After making
several ZAPPlications I contacted Larry Berman and sent him a
representative image. Larry worked miracles with that image! I then sent
him more images, most of which were DRAMATICALLY improved. Larry suggested
contacting those events with which I had already applied and to have those
events mark our ZAPPlications "incomplete" so that I could exchange
images. Gordon Fenner
Larry, thank you so much for the wonderful 'tweaking'
you did on my photos for the ZAPPlication, you are a true master! They now
look just like the original artwork. I will never attempt to do future
photos on my own without your help! Jennifer
Remy-Renfrow
Hello Larry, Just received the new ZAPP
profile you set up for me - Looks great! I'm happy with how the images
look and how you followed my directions to the letter - where some of the
images required some cropping and different outlines. Now I will put them
to the test - at this point I feel confident that my images will be
presented in their best light. Thanks again Larry,
Terry Habeger
Sorry for the delay in sending you a big
thanks. I just got back from traveling but I did get a chance to look at
your Comparison shots while away. I was so impressed that I kept showing
the before and after shots to my co-workers. Jim and I both thank you
greatly for the miracles and prompt turnaround.
Lia & Jim Biond
My images look great. You've got my
business. Now how do I delete the images that the show scanned for me.
Justin Coopersmith
Larry, The booth shot, #1 and #2 all look much, much
better, a big noticeable improvement! The other three look better and you
have given me ideas to make what I think will be better slides. Thanks for
your time. I'll add a link from my website to your site and a testimonial
of your abilities. I'll see what I can do to get you more business.
Sincerely, Mike Albin
(sent by mail) I had to rush at the
library where there were lots of people taking turns on the computer. No
chance to send you an e-mail to appropriately thank you for those great
color translations and the help in getting set up. Mariko and Chas
Swisher
Hi Larry, I've looked at the images on
ZAPP and Juried Art Services and I thank you for your work. They are
certainly sharper and have better color than the ones I had originally.
Thanks! Stephan Cox
I wanted to send this testimonial as
promptly as you completed the digitizing, etc. for me, but how do you
exceed 'ahead of schedule'. Thanks for the side by side comparison with the work
done by the original photographer. Your work on the images sparkled! All
that and courteous service too! Grazie mille! Michelle Murray
Dear Larry, I have been wanting to send
you a quick note to tell you some good news. I have been accepted in every
show I've applied for since using your services. (With one exception, I
was waitlisted for Sedona.) I am certain that the combination of your
advice and your technical assistance with my images had everything to do
with my success. I will continue to have some images that require your
review over the next couple of months and will send them off to you.
Christy Beckwith
Damn. I hate to say anything good because
you'll probably raise your prices, but everything looks great.
Joseph Henderson
Larry- Thank you for all your work. The images look
great. I noticed that the ACC extended its deadline to Aug. 3. I hope this
takes some of the pressure off of you in dealing with digital deadbeats
such as myself. Many thanks, Fred Kaemmer
Thanks Larry!!! I posted a question and within minutes
the phone rang! it was super Larry. He walked me through the problem and
I'm ZAPP'in again! I spent more than three hours on the computer before I
posted a question. Larry talked me through it in less than 15 minutes. I
don't know how he found my phone number but glad he did! That Is the
quickest response have ever gotten from a message board. It made my life
lot easier and to think I was cursing ZAPP just before he called!
Blaine Avery on the ZAPP forum
Hi Larry, I cannot thank
you enough for not only doing a great ZAPP/JAS prep for me but for also saving an
original slide. Here's the short story, I had a new booth designed by an
architect, created by a woodworking group that just received "Best
Cabinetry" award, photographed by a well known photographer for National
Geographic. I spent two day job of setting up the booth at my home. The
roll of slide film came back from the lab scratched from sloppy lab work.
Thinking the original slide was ruined and I would need a re shoot, I sent
it to you. YOU were able to get rid of the scratches and save my wonderful
booth shot. You are now a part of a wonderful experience for me. Thank
You, Alexa and Peter Smarsh
Dear Larry. You have been one of the best
gifts I've ever given my business. Show decisions aren't all in as you
know, but I feel more a part of this new millennium as a professional
because of your services; better prepared for fall jurying for 2007 than
ever before. You are helping me make my dreams come true. Linda Van
Hart
Dear Larry, WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They look great. What a difference from the images the other photographer
prepared for me. Thanks so much for your help. Sincerely, Jayne
DeMarcay
My first experience with Larry Berman and the
ZAPPlication was a great success. Even though I am a photographer I had no
desire to enter into the digital world so quite happily sent my photos to
Larry to be zapped. I hadn't gotten into the Cherry Creek Arts Festival
for eight years, but lo and behold, the first time I sent a ZAPPlication
it brought me acceptance to this great event. Thanks a lot, Larry, for
your technical skills and congeniality and willingness to work until
everything is perfect. Norm Darwish and Connie
Mettler
Hi Larry, I am very excited to finally be
back in the Lakefront Festival of the Arts after being rejected for the
last few years. I think having you prepare my images for Zapplication
really did the trick. Thank you. Barbara Abel
Hi Larry. the images look good. I see how you adjust
color to more represent the feel of the piece. Thanks!
Brenda McMahon
Thanks Larry! phew! it looks like i have
got my full application in with payment and all the images. You have been
an enormous help. it must be nearly midnight over there so I'm sorry to
have kept you up! Anyway thanks very much. Best wishes
Feyona van Stom
Hi Larry,
The result is stunning ,thanks a lot - you did a great job ! Wolf
Dosch
Just wanting to wish you a very happy and
successful new year!! Thank you so much for all your great help with the
ZAPP stuff! For me it has been a life saver and most probably for many
others as well. I know 2006 will be fabulous for you as you're always
moving forward with new ideas, new ways of doing things and passing them
on to us! See you sometime. And good luck with YOUR new work! Bye for now,
Leslie Emery
Larry. Thank you for your generous help and your wealth of
information. It remains to be seen if we can process all this, but you
really showed us some refinements that now are essential. You did a
beautiful job with our paintings, and you proved again what we all know
--- professionals are the best. Eugenie Torgerson
Hi Larry, Thank you so very much for setting up my Zapp & Juried Art
Services accounts. You did an outstanding job and were so very
accommodating to work late to get it up in time for me to make a show
deadline. I appreciate your expertise & professionalism and would highly
recommend you to my artist friends. Thanks again for a great job!
Jennifer Charles and Don McCoy
Larry, thank you
so mush. your service is fantastic. i will recommend you to any and all
that may be in need. your service has made applying to shows a snap
relieving the stress is was feeling about how and where to start.
Mark Knott
Larry, I just want to let you
know how very pleased I am with the digital work you did for me. Not only
was the quality of your work excellent, but the speed with which you were
able to do the job was exceptional. I couldn't be more pleased and I will
not hesitate to recommend you to other artists. Again, many thanks.
Diane Buckhout
Thanks for the
service, saved me some time and aggravation. Diane Harty
I am a jeweler that has been struggling with the learning
curve of taking pictures of my own work. Just when I thought I had made
progress and was getting ready to apply to a show, I was introduced to
ZAPP. I knew that I had made
tremendous progress in my photography however I did not know whether or
not the pictures in which I submitted to ZAPP would look of quality to the
jurors. I spoke with Larry Berman about my concerns. In his very busy
schedule not only did he take the time out to talk with me but he viewed
two of my images. Larry is a rare person that I have crossed paths with.
It is so clear that this man cares about the struggles that artists have
with the stress of submitting quality photography to the jurors. He gave
me validation that I am on the right track and I can't thank him enough!
Julie Glassman
Thanks SO much for your work, Larry! My slides look great,
you got them onto Zapp SUPER quick, AHEAD of deadline, and have been so
easy to work with! The Zapp process is so easy now that my slides are
converted. I don't know why I dragged my feet! Elisabethan
Thanks for all of your help, it made life a lot less stressful. I
completed the application and it went through just fine, so hopefully they
won't have problems with it. You seem to know a lot more about what is
going on than they do. Lance Heddan
Dear Larry, Thank you so much for coming to my rescue
after Hurricane Katrina displaced me and all of my records/slides in New
Orleans. Without your kind and generous effort I would never have figured
out how to get my images from ZAPP into Juried Arts Services format.
Thanks to you I did not miss my deadlines. Your help removed a lot of
stress and pressure for me in these especially trying times. When I do get
some new images down the road I will definitely turn them over to you!
Thanks again, it really means a lot to me and may your kindness come back
to you ten times greater. Kate Beck
Hi Larry. Thanks so much for doing such a wonderful and
fast job getting my slides ready for ZAPPlication. You made the process
seem so easy and stress free. Thanks a million. Mary Curtin
Hi Larry, You did it once again. We opened our ZAPP
profile and said WOW! The pieces are so true and they really popped
and grabbed our attention. The quality of the work along with your quick
and friendly service makes you a very valuable person! Thank you so much
for your fine work and information, I can't imagine wandering through this
sea of technology without your expertise. Rick and I really appreciate it.
Marian Steen
Larry, The images look great! I can really see a
difference, particularly in the color. Also thanks so much for the
technical know-how and the fast turn around, I greatly appreciate it! You
greatly simplified the online application process. Thanks again,
Adam Neeley
It was great to discover someone who does his best for
setup, etc. of applications for digital jurying so I can continue to do
what I do best...the artwork! You were also easy to contact, helpful and
prompt". Thanks again. Renee Harris
The photos look great. Thanks for your quick turnaround.
Michael Morton
Thanks Larry, the images look great! I will be sending more slides of my
new work for future zapplications within the next month or so.
Marilu Patterson
Larry, You are amazing!
I had to continue going back over them again and again. It was like a new
take on my work, I kept seeing more details in the beading, color and
texture that the other pictures did not even come close to.
I am very pleased with the quality and service. Thank you. Stephanie Distler
Larry: Great job! I really like the black and white over
the color, and, yes, feel free to use the images for your presentations.
Thanks for the excellent work. Allan Teger
Thanks Larry!!! I've just done the Uptown in the nick of time. The images
look great thanks to you! Just a quick thank you for all your help with
the new slide/Zapp stuff. I just got my acceptance into Uptown, and with
your help I got in! Thanks again. Having so much on my plate at the
moment, to have you as a resource is a god send! Leslie Emery
Larry, many thanks for doing such a fine job on the test
images I sent you. They are incredibly close to the actual photos, if not
spot on. Well done! Les Slesnick,
Photographer
Wow. They look GREAT! Thanks, Larry. Nice job of editing. There is a huge
difference between learning to do the digital thing “good enough” and
learning to do it “well”. I learned a long time ago that in the art world
there is no such thing as “good enough”. Heck, I don’t produce my work to
be “good enough” – why would I allow a jury presentation to be “good
enough”? I knew in my gut that there was going to be a world of guys out
there who are part artist, part geek, who were going to get a huge leg up
on my where jurying for art fairs is concerned. Larry Berman came to my
rescue. Larry is not just ahead of the curve in the art fair world, Larry
is defining the curve. Larry offered me just what I need, a
state-of-the-art jury portfolio, uploaded and ready to use. I don’t have
to wait until I can do it for myself – Larry already gives me the option
of having great, usable digital images to jury with while I am trying to
learn this confusing world for myself. But I’m never going to enjoy the
tech world like I enjoy getting my hands in clay. Larry keeps my hands in
clay.
John Bauman
Hi Larry, Thanks
again for the work on my images. The are measurably improved given the
limitations of my marginal original photography. It shows me what I need
to do to improve my entire presentation. But more importantly, thanks for
being so free with your time to share your expertise on all things
digital; an area in which many of us are just emerging from the dark ages.
It shows that the community of artists can often be a community of
colleagues working to better the venue. Bruce
Meyer
Larry. Sometimes my procrastination and my learning
curve collide. Today I realized the show I needed to apply to soon did not
do ZAPP. I needed slides. Your helpful information and incredible speed in
answering my request for how to make slides from digital images was most
appreciated. Thanks. Carla Fox
Hi Larry, Wow you are quick! Looks great. Melissa Grosse
Your efficiency and skills with digital imaging technology
combined with your understanding of the computer is beyond excellent and
life saving for those of us who don't understand. Claudia Jane Klein
Hi Larry, Thanks to you, I am finished with my application,
without you i never could have done it, I really appreciate your help. You
were very kind and patient. Thank you!! Elsie Young
Hi Larry- The images look great! John Jameson
Larry, The new images look great in ZAPP and JAS and they
look just like the slides. Thanks for all your help. See you on the road.
John Harris
These look very nice on my 20" iMac. Thanks for working on them, they are much improved, and
whatever limitations they have now are the originals problem, not the
transcription, I would say. Great work. Bob McNally
The images looked great! Thanks again for your help! Michael Good
I just finished modifying each image and submitted my Zapp
for Crafts Boston. Will complete the Zapp for ACC Baltimore in the next
few days. Your work looked perfect and made my tasks a snap! Thanks for
the excellent and prompt service. Rhonda Heisler
Hey Larry, They look GREAT!!! Thanks. Mike Anich
I received your e-mail and have made the application! It turned out to be
easier to do than I thought. I appreciate your doing just as you said you
would and getting the slides scanned promptly. Kay Dolezal
Thanks Larry for getting everything done so fast.
The slides on juried art services look fine (and you're right, the ones
you did look better than the ones that ACE did for me). Thanks for doing
such a good job--and for doing it so promptly. Susan Levi-Goerlich
Larry, I can't tell you what a treat it was to just plug in
the info. necessary and have everything else taken care of by you! I DREAD
having to wrestle my way through murky computerese! This made it so easy -
thank you. I know you had to tweak the photos for background color, etc.
so charge what you need to charge to our card. In my book it's money well
spent! Wesley Glebe
Dear Larry, I wanted to touch base with you before I
send a group of slides to be put in digital format for submission to ZAPP.
You were so good to help me last year, and your work on my images got me
in Cherry Creek! I received the new CD yesterday and want to thank
you for all of your good work. The images look great. Also, thanks for
applying all of my requests regarding specific slides, and for returning
the work so promptly. Aletha Jones
Hi Larry, The files look great and worked well. I applied
to three shows on Zapp today. Ken Good
Larry, Thanks so much. The images look awesome! Ayesha Mayadas
Hi Larry, Thanks for fixing my slides for the Zapp
application- I never could have waded through that myself without a total
melt down. Lesley Keeble
Hi Larry, Application complete!!! Thanks a million.
Mary Curtin
Hi Larry Thanks for getting these up so quickly. The problem slides look
much better now. Susan Spies
Dear Larry, Just want to let you know that I am VERY pleased with the job

Hi Larry, Just wanted to let you know that the images look great! Thanks
so much. Jan Ford
Thanks Larry. The application went fine and the images looked terrific.

Thanks for your quick quality work on this ACC application process. I did
end up going with your edited image of the ring after much wrestling and
consultation. Thanks for your advice. I am considering sending other
images and a booth slide to you and will definitely recommend you to
others who need this work. Linda Van Hart
Hi Larry, I just finished the zapplication for the ACC
show.
Thank you for getting my images done so quickly, they looked great.

Larry- Thanks for the fast help; I got the application done last night in
time. The images looked great. Chris Horney

assistance. It's rare to encounter such a consummate example of customer
service! Thanks again. Dave Filppi
The images that you scanned earlier were great. Really crisp! Mark
Russell
I cant thank you enough. What a relief!!!! I don't know why I did not call
you sooner.... oh yeah, the pots were still in the kiln. I think they look
really good. John Fulwood
Larry, thank you so much for the hand holding and walk-through. I finally
managed to get both applications filled out correctly and out the door.
Luann Udell
Hurray! I sent the application and having overcome absolute panic and
terror..... it was simple! Please accept my gratitude for your patience...
and coaching. Do you have any idea how awful and scary this all is for a
novice? I loved the way you presented our work. Michele Gauthier
