Yeah, I can't stand the typical before/after pics where the repair is invisible. Sure, some repairs ARE practicly invisible, and any good repair is invisible on a white backdrop, but you can always see "something" with the naked eye, even on those "invisible" repairs.

I had a couple other pics of this repair.. and the after shot from the opposite view angle are invisible. All it takes for an invisible shot is to have a slightly out of focus shot. But that looks phony. These pics work pretty well because of all the surface pits... they act like a grid map and they prove that the picture is in focus, and it's real. I don't care if you want to use them. I have plenty and plan to have more. It can be tricky to get pics where you can see the repair, but not see it, if you know what I mean.

Sometimes, a really good repair actually is not as impressive in a picture, and vice versa. And it can be tough to get the camera to focus on the glass after the repair, because nothing is there. :wink:
