JO'S NEW PROJECT
For some years the exposure on a lot of the pictures from the movies
has bothered me and now I'm (trying) to do something about it.
EXAMPLE WITH JEFF:

REDOING THE CLOSE-UP ALBUMS
This is a huge project as there are SO many pictures, so check back to see which
albums have newly gone up. I'll pin this right here in this spot so you
can find it easily. I've done Zack first because with his Z he usually
gets done last.
*CHARACTERS WITH FINISHED ALBUMS:*
(This is the order in which I'm doing them, not the order they
are on their index page. The most recently done will always
be at the end of this list here.)
ZACK, LACHLAN, ANDY, ARTHUR, JAVERT (during filming), CAL,
COLIN, EAST, HANDO, ED, JEFFREY, KIM, DOM, CORBETT,
CRISTOFUORO, JEFF, STEVE, MAX SKINNER, JOHN BIEBE,
