I have just uploaded the updated Safeco with the new field thanks to the fellas that made the field changer mod. It also added in two new ads and fixed the old transparency issue I had forgotten about. I am now going to go hang out with my wife.

Anybody who's taking pics, here's a tip. Try to get in the park as early as possible, like batting practice, or wait til the game is over and most of the crowd is cleared. That way you should have no problem with ushers letting you down to the front rows to take pics.

Also try to get pics of the background (buildings, trees, etc.) from corner to corner. The best way I found to do that when I was at Kauffman was to take them from the upper deck.

Pirate, not sure if you ever got an updated Budweiser pictures, but I fooled around with it here:

I also have a couple other scoreboard updates if you want to use them (that'd be better than me starting a whole new mod which I'd probably never finish).

EDIT: aah, i think we may be talking about a different bud sign

Oh and by the way while we are on the topic of stadiums, I'd like to see textures wrapped on advertisements that are added to the stadium walls so it looks like it's a part of the wall as opposed to being just another logo...

It's hard to explain but you should get the idea.

BTW, I tried out Safeco and it's a godly mod. I can't wait until this project is complete

Pirate - not good quality at all, but just to highlight what is different from opening day 2006 and opening day 2007 on those scoreboards at Busch III:

You'll notice the retired numbers under the board on the left changed as well. Not to mention the ugly board on the right was completely replaced.

EDIT:

And am I the ONLY one bothered by the yellow "pop fly" advertisement for the Post Dispatch? I mean, seriously. If it was a "pop fly" - it would be caught by a fielder, and it would not be a souvenir for a fan to sell. Obviously they meant souvenir "foul ball" or "homerun" or something. Oh well. It always bugs me. lol.

got some pics of safeco, it was hard to endure that 9-0 shlacking.

unfortuatly, my car is outside, and i am dead tired. I got the pics you wanted me to get pirate, from several angles.

i'll post them in the morning

side note:

my girlfriend kept getting mad at me for calling Jose Vidro "The Fat Kid' and making references to cake and pizza.

Ok, back from AT&T and I TRIED (believe me, I tried) to get photos of the ads. Unfortunately, I have several people who caused me to be late for batting practice (I showed up 30 minutes early like they asked before we left) and then our ride didn't have any gas.

We got to the park and the ushers wouldn't let me down to take pics.

After the game, the ushers were pushy. Every other stadium, they don't care if you take pics but the ones in SFO should be bouncers at the local clubs. They practically muscle you out of the place.

Here's what I did get (since it's not a total loss):

This series is from the right field side and it goes from left to right:

This is the new first-base/home plate scoreboard to the right of the BofA ad on the club level:

And this one is the third-base/home-plate club level side:

The ad that sits next to the right-field bricks next to the right-field line in the corner:

My REALLY pitiful attempt at the Bud Light ad...but, Pirate if you have the one for Safeco, I think that one is the same one.

Ushers prevented me from getting a good clear shot of this...the Cingular logo has now been replaced by a glowing Blue Shield logo:

Bud Light...but angled:

If you want the higher-res photos, here is my Flickr Park Ad set URL:

Let me know if ANY of these were a help to you, Pirate. I apologize in advance if they aren't. I'm a WAY better photographer than this.
