Hi everybody,
I've been working on a revamping of Dimitris' website over the last few weeks. Trying to modernize it a bit and get it more streamlined. It's been a
while since it was first created, probably about 10 years or so, and it definitely could use some updates.
As I'm still working on it and won't be uploading the new version just yet, I thought it might be cool to ask for everyone who owns an instrument made
by our talented friend Dimitris to submit a photo or two of yourself holding or playing it.
If you own more than one, feel free to email me photos of you (or your favorite super model) posing with some or all of them.
Of course, I may not be able to use everything I receive, but I'd like to make a page where in addition to links of Dimitris' friends' websites, we
could also post a big collage of his friends and customers showing off his creations.
And not just ouds; it would be great to see the wide range of instruments he makes so well in the hands of their happy owners.
Feel free to email me pictures: mavrothis(AT)oudcafe(DOT)com
Try to keep it to 1 or 2 pictures per instrument, and the size should be between 1-3 megabytes each.
Thanks, I look forward to seeing you with your lovely instruments! Hopefully we can use a bunch of them on his new site.
Take care,
mavrothi

Hi Fadel,
That's great news, I'm looking forward to seeing the instrument you have ordered.
Once it comes in feel free to email me a nice picture of yourself playing it.
I've already starting receiving photos and they are looking really great, so don't be shy!
Thanks,

Hi Fadel,
I'm not able to see your photo(s). Would you mind emailing them to me? 1 or 2 of you playing or just holding the instrument.
Thanks,

Hey M! I just put in an order for an oud from Dimitris, he said I should have it in 1.5 months, I'll definetely let you know when I get pictures. One
thing I want to mention. On Dimitris website, if you could have a "Woods" section where it shows available wood or examples of some woods Dimitris has
used on his website, I think that would be great. Also a section highlighting any professional players that play Dimitris' ouds because I know there
are a notable few.
Send me your high res photos!

Hi there,
Just a reminder, the new site for luthier Dimitris Rapakousios is up, and it would be great to get some more photos of happy owners with their instruments by Dimitri
for the 'Friends' page.
Just have someone take a few nice photos of you posing with your instrument(s), and send them to me via the email button below.
I can't promise that I will use every single one that is submitted, but chances are I will if they are nicely done! Don't be shy!
Here is where we are at with the Friends page so far: http://www.dimitrisouds.com/friends_en.html
Thanks,
mavrothi
