Everyone has her/his own opinion and this is fine. I use the free LinkedIn account and successfully contacted band mangers. You definitely don´t have to shoot the big Rockstars. I agree, up and coming bands are easier to grow with.

Yup, I figured that out. Whether or not linkedin takes gifs isn’t really a big issue. Linkedin isn’t intuitive at all. I know computers, by the way.. I teach it at a college. Frankly, I’m wasting time on it.. too little to gain and too much time wasted. My suspicion is the answer would be: BUY THE UPGRADE! You know how many sites out there give you a sample then hit you for the upgrade price? That’s another way of wasting time and money. Bottom line is be smart. But I love photographing country artists and specialize in up and comers. If you like restrictive, even hilarious, agreements from acts, photograph the big ones. No thanks. I like the hungry artists who give me full reign.

Thanks fro your comment James. I just googled and found that “LinkedIn does not support animated GIFs at all”. So, this is not a platform to post Gifs.
