I wanted to start working with an agent in a distant market. The agency needed to have my composite sheet on their web site. The problem was that on my comp card all of my personal contact information, (E-mail address, phone numbers, etc…) is shown on my card. I asked the agent if I could just send individual photos so that none of my contact information would be shown. She said that her clients like to see all of the photos at one time, so sending individual shots wouldn’t work.

In order to have representation with this agent, I needed to learn how to delete some of the text on my comp card. I found a great editing program called Gimp, that allows you to edit text and photos. And, this program is free. The address is: http://www.gimp.org/.

So, after learning how to delete the requested text I was able to be represented by the agent.
