From the Bob Heironimus Bigfoot thread...

I am creating a new thread on the PGF (Yes! Try and stop me!) for PGF researchers called "The PGF Image Resource Thread." Other people can call it "PGFIRT" or maybe "PFIRT", which makes me snicker, but I will simply call it the PIRT. Whatever it's called, we need the PIRT. I am finding the fact that I don't have my own website yet and the nature of an internet forum to often he a hinderance, for all the benefits posting research on a public forum has. In the near future I will be creating my own website, somewhat akin to Matt Crowley's Orgone Research. Matt has given me helpful advice on this.

Too many times my research has been sidetracked and bogged down by searching for some image I or somebody else posted, or something that I wrote. When it comes to my own posts, the forum search engine is helpful, but not really when it comes to older posts. Sometimes even fairly new things won't show up for some reason. The time restrictions are a pain as well when I am hurriedly trying to scrounge something up. I learned that plain old googling my own posts often works better.

What I would like is simply for PIRT to be an easy way to locate and use images related to the PGF. Obviously PGF frames would be included, but other things as well, such as frames from the South Fork film, or things like the Argosy magazine, scans from Patterson's book, etc. What I think would work best is that when you add an image to PIRT, you give it a brief summary and title. The title should have keywords that easily make it searchable. Take William's frame he posted there. How do you find that?

It could be given tag words like "unknown rider", "pack horse", "autumn", "dirt road" etc. They have to be things that the search engine won't exclude because they are too common, and things that won't help, like, "Gimlin". WP and JcR, could you add your images to the PIRT after I make it? And JcR, could you add your image as the original unaltered one with a description? If descriptions aren't fully known, we can discuss it in the current PGF thread.

I would like to make a stipulation that there are absolutely no crayon pics added. That means no images that have gobbledy-gook scribbled all over them. If they are added, they should be deleted as OT. Also, an effort should be made to exclude tampered images, such as Patty being squished or stretched. The image of the Morris recreation suit that Óðinn said had been highly tampered with is something I think that could be included and the details of the tampering listed. Also, I think there should be no discussion really of the images in that thread. If we let that happen, then suddenly we really just have another regular PGF thread. The point of the PIRT should be an online filing and retrieval resource for PGF researchers.

Image: Satellite image of South Ninetieth Avenue of the Ahtanum Valley in Yakima highlighting the homes of Bob Heironimus and Bob Gimlin, showing them to be nine doors apart.

Description: Often unknown by Bigfoot supporters is the fact that Bob Heironimus and Bob Gimlin have been friends since before the PGF was shot and in fact have lived close to each other on the same street in Yakima for decades.

Tag words: Gimlin, Heironimus, Ahtanum Valley, Yakima, South Ninetieth Avenue, houses.

Image: Unknown rider with packhorse (#1)

Description: A still image from film footage. The rider may be Bob Gimlin (thinks William Parcher) and is said to be Bob Gimlin (by John Green) at Bluff Creek. The large horse may be Chico (WP) based on the size, color, white socks and the circumstances of Gimlin borrowing this horse. White packhorse with wooden boxes appears to be the same as from other Bluff Creek footage. This footage is often shown immediately preceding the Patty encounter footage.

Tag words: Bob Gimlin, Chico, Bluff Creek, packhorse, unknown rider

Image: Unknown rider with packhorse (#2)

Description: A still image from film footage(?). The rider may be Bob Gimlin (thinks William Parcher) and is said to be Bob Gimlin (by John Green) at Bluff Creek. The large horse may be Chico (WP) based on the size, color, white socks and the circumstances of Gimlin borrowing this horse. White packhorse with wooden boxes appears to be the same as from other Bluff Creek footage. This still image was posted on BFF by "comncents". WP has never seen it elsewhere and it is presumed to be related to "Unknown rider with packhorse (#1)".

This exercise is already a bit difficult. It's not easy to come up with an image name or title. Then there will be bunches of other images that could use the same name. Note that I had to start numbering because I have more than one "unknown rider with packhorse at Bluff Creek". Higher quality versions of the same images could show up later from other sources as well. There is also the issue of labeling or describing an image based on your own opinion. For example I think posts 5&6 show Gimlin riding Chico at Bluff Creek... but if I name the image something like "Gimlin on Chico at Bluff Creek" it could lead people to think that is some kind of verified fact.
