Did you look at the coin where the feedback came from?...it didn't have much color to begin with and my images are some of the best available.....I would advise you to learn to image or don't be so sensitive to questions about your cartoon images
Quick bump On another note I can assure anyone shane does not juice him images, Shane and I have taken several hundred images together and have worked together for a very long time. His images are the best around when it comes to toned coins, well except for mine of course

There is no juice in Shane's images! He's a stand-up guy and great to do business with, one of the best in my book. Always compare the color (or lack of) on the slab and the insert around the coin...a quick indication of color enhancement.

Not really the case... in Photoshop one can simply elliptical select the coin portion within the slab image and "juice" only that selection, thereby leaving the slab and insert un-"juiced". Very quick and easy to do.
I am NOT saying Shane does this. I'm merely pointing out that looking at the slab and insert color is not an indication of whether an image has been juiced or not.
My current coin collecting interests are: (1) British coins 1838-1970 in XF-AU-UNC, (2) silver type coins in XF-AU with that classic medium gray coloration and exceptional eye appeal.
I know of a seller who does this and the transition between enhanced area and non enhanced slab is easily discernible especially with NGC coins due to the edgeview prongs
The idea that you can recolor the coin but keep the slab colors the same is more of a myth that real practice....small adjustment I am sure can be done but not enough to change the entire look of the coin. I have found that if you sell nicely toned coins....you don't need to try to manipulate the images lol

Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.
<< <i>you should pm him vs posting this in public. Also I would say that many here and ATS would vouch for Shane >>

Shane's pictures are the best. Color is right on.

Pics were not juiced! Color was 100% correct IMO, and everything brought strong prices. I could not have been more satisfied.
I have also purchased a few coins from Shane's auctions. Coins received matched the pics there as well.
