Large Prince Gallery? (And post Prince pics)

Why isn't there a gallery similar to these of Prince: http://mariahcareynetwork.com/gallery/


http://www.madonnashots.com/index.html




Is there one site I can collectively find Prince photos? Also, post your favorite Prince photos.

We used to have a huge and fantastic Prince gallery, with dozens of pictures of him from every year.

Prince asked us to remove it.

What you see there in our gallery now is a fraction of what it used to be like.

^This. Which is one of several reason why I feel Prince, the person is a bit of an asshole. Also what he done to Uptown magazine. I'm sorry but he does repeatedly shits on his fanbase, which is why the bitterness towards him (from his remaining fanbase) is real. I say this so often about Prince, but it's wise to set your expectations on ultra low, when it comes to Prince.

YEP

I was surprised when I learned about his

So it shouldn't be any wonder why we won't see videos on Youtube

when a fan site couldn't even house a good photo gallery

Did you legally have to do agree to what he said or was it a respectful acceptance? And was it a Paisley park staff member who emailed to contact the org or a call or what

Thank you buddy, that really means a lot reading that. People have no idea how hard I worked on that thing and how many late nights (many of them work nights - more than i'd care to remember!) that I spent scanning reams of stuff to upload and then adding detailed background information for context and sourcing copyright info etc. Such a shame, but such are Prince's whims.

To be honest, I don't even think he had anything directly to do with it, it was just lawyers being heavy-handed to show that they were "getting shit done" - as we all know, he's a man that likes results - and that's what they gave him. In doing so, the Org lost somewhere around 6,000 photos if I remember correctly. But hey, we weren't the only ones - HQ and other sites got hit and eventually shut up shop in that respect too sadly. I had stepped down from my Mod position for many months by that point and moved on to pastures new as it was just taking way too much time out of my life - it had become a monster if truth be told, but I was touched to get an email from Ben before it happened apologetically explaining what he had to do and why. Cool cat that Ben dude wink

All that aside, anyone who craves that kind of stuff should head over to the page I now run on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ThePrinceArmy click that "LIKE" button and be sure to tick "Get Notifications" and you'll get your daily dose of purple goodness and then some.

Be sure to bring your friends.

I remember this. Thanks for all your work. I am sometimes tempted to throw away my Prince scrapbooks (another monster project) but one day I know they will be appreciated by another fan, even if Prince doesn't care.

It's on a 3tb hard-drive my friend. Last year I decided I may as well start putting it to good use now that social media affords me the opportunity to at least build something similar. I have a great little team of purple gophers who work behind the scenes to help keep things updated. It's just a place where Prince fans can hang, post stuff of their own and maybe see some stuff they've not seen before is all. Nothing more, nothing less.
