  I don’t post anywhere much anymore, but this is important. I’m not sold on what the best image to update on riseandshout.net should be. Here are the best 3 that I can find but if and I chose the first one for now. I want one of Shelley’s hurdle, but I can’t find a clean shot of it. If anyone has any better suggestions, please link an image. Last years image was perfect and set a very high bar.

  This may be copyrighted as I found it in a google search, but I think it captures the hurdle well.

    This is the one. It’s an AP photo and I can buy a license for it fairly cheap.

      If you are wondering how much that image was to license, Editorial, Non-Comercial, Web Use, <100K views/day came to $80. Not complaining, just inside baseball if you are curious. In the past I’ve just linked to a local news source. But I don’t want a DMCA takedown filed on behalf of our Utah Legislature.

  I like Shelleys image actually. It is like he is surfing on Zoobs.

  Have you considered doing a gif montage of multiple images?

    I have, I’ve just taken an approach of keeping it as simple as possible.

    I don’t mind putting a subtle link to utehub.com on that page as long as it’s not a distraction. The simplicity of the page is awesome

      Totally agree on that. Something very unobtrusive would be great.

        Tony, Here’s what I did. If you click on the picture it will send you here.

        Oh ok. Interesting. I wonder if the UH site stats can tell me if anyone does that. I know I wouldn’t click the image since it just appears to be static.

        I’ll experiment with some different options, like maybe a little utehub icon in the bottom right corner or something.

  You should find a good photo of the Utah player trying to hurdle but ending up tea-bagging the BYU defender lol.

  Even though it’s now irrelevant, I still really enjoy the Bronco crying gif that used to be the image. Wish there was something new as humorous as that one. The hurdle is good though.

  Thanks, Milton. I have long appreciated your work (if mostly silently). Good to hear from you again.

  Either the hurdle or the stiff-arm during Shelley’s last TD run. Loved that!
