You tweak things so often that the names of the types (Hero, Deluxe Hero, Resurrection, etc.) do not give enough information any more. For example, Resurrection model A, B, C, ...Just a thought.<!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndNope... don't really see the point in it. I just call my previous models exactly that... previous models.I don't keep track of when I sold which previous models. Maybe a very small number of people really care about that but 98% of people really don't care about the glove having a "revision number". I think my glove names are sufficient. There's the Hero model which has the regular stainless steel blades. One is a Standard (clean version) and the other is a Deluxe (dirtier version w/ extra details). Then I have my Resurrection line which have the real knife-steel blades on them. I, personally, think the names differentiate them sufficiently.Since I'm still relatively new to the glove scene compared to the other top makers, I just tell people to expect the gloves to change over time as more and more images of the original gloves become available and as we find out more and more things about them.Just when I think I have something correct... another photo comes out and I revise it so it matches. It's like buying a computer, I guess. Don't ever expect to get the FINAL version of a product... because later on... there will always be something better. That is until I can TRULY not find anything else to change about it. But I'm not at that point just yet. I thought I was but I got additional info that I didn't have before and thus... I gotta act on it.Now... I have gotten a couple of emails from previous customers who were actually angry that I revised the glove because they thought that they were getting a final version. I could quit updating the gloves and just "settle" for how they are OR I can update the templates as time goes on and get them better and better. I told that to someone and they told me to just not sell gloves until I was done updating them. My response... no one would ever sell anything if they did that. Look at cars for example... think you got the best car? Just wait for a bit... a better one will be out next year.
