the definition isn't usually very high on the web, so they make poor quality photos

Do yourself a favour and buy a stock photo from a photo library.
As Mike says you are going to get a decent resolution that looks good printed as well as web but more importantly you won't get your ass sued off by who ever owns/licenses the picture. Typically you are looking at £500 plus potential legal costs.

I agree ive looked at istock, what size would you buy for a website ? They have about 4-5 sizes. hope this makes sense.
Paul
ps was hoping Mike H would of offered a couple of cast offs to get me going ;D ;D

Some kind soul my send you something via email.
You won't get before and afters off istockphoto and the likes but you will get babies puppies and the like on carpets.
I would sign up and go to the free section download the different sizes and print off. Then you will know what to expect.
You realy do need to work on your own ones. Every time you see a minger take a photo.
The number of times I've done mingers and they have scrubbed up well but didn't take photos. :( And the same is true of some of the carpets I've done too. :D

Paul i have lots of photos but not any before & after photos.
and most of my photos have me in them so are hard to use on other people website.
this is why Mark from DP hired a professional photographer to take a selection of photos for his sites. it hard to get good photos
it took about 150 shots to get 20 usable photos.
what photos do you need specifically?

I was looking for some basic wand images running over a carpet. May be a stained carpet or upholstery. Would not expect this for nowt.
I have been through the online picture sites and nothing seems real.
Your photos seem to have a feeling of realism about them, Any help at all appreciated
Thanks Paul

Mike, do you still use the 4 inch tool for stairs? I had a 3 inch extracta tool and it was great. Now using a twin jet stair wand with greater pressure but I don`t think it cleans as well, but is quicker.
-
gary I have the 6inch version of this tool as well but always use this on stairs and some upholstery. it is a lot better for getting in the nooks & crannies and over the bullnose
it has a wand soft touch valve fitted which will handle very high temps. and on these stairs I was hitting them with about 400psi.
i filmed those stairs, they are in an Chinese restaurant leading upto the staff living quarters and are thick grease, if you tap them they sound like wood, you really have to dig the tool into the grease to clean it out
please ignore my bald head ;D ;D

As professionals I think most on here would find that an excellent video. Would impress potential custies too. As for the bald head I think you missed a trick with all that advertising space wasted. ;D
