Dear Friends,

We will soon begin our coverage of the 2011 Asian and World Bodybuilding & Physique Sports Championships here on ThaiBody. With athletes from 34 countries competing in 38 separate bodybuilding and fitness categories, this event is one of the biggest ever.

ThaiBody is proud to have assisted the TBPA/ABBF/WBPF with all their promotional materials, just like the Multi-Asian Championships in Pattaya two years ago. Then, as now, we designed the official poster, made backdrops, created the certificates for the athletes, did the event logo, made a TV commercial and a promotional video, and designed the entrance tickets plus a 24-page souvenir program. In case you were wondering why there were only a few updates on ThaiBody recently: now you know why.

As the official media partner of the TBPA/ABBF/WBPF, we hired extra hands to be able to cover all events: both onstage and offstage, informal and official, from weigh-in to farewell. In order to cope with the sheer amount of material we expect to shoot at this event (my guess is 25,000 photos and 30 hours of HD video), we have adjusted our workflow so we can quickly show you the results. Normally we would select a number of photos for a specific album, make adjustments, tag everyone in the photo, upload, and then publish the album, but this takes a lot of time: often weeks if not months. Instead, we will publish our photo albums "as is", and do the proper update later.

So, do not expect all our photos to be picture-perfect yet, but do expect 1,000s of photos within a few days!

And to save best for last:

* We SLASHED THE PRICES on all our prints!
* Be assured that we will always give you the BEST PRINTS possible: no cutting corners here!
* October special: FREE INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING on all our products, prints included!

If you happen to be in Bangkok at the Championships, say hello to the Team, because we love to hear from you!
