Help me make the ULTIMATE mouse comparison photo! :D

[Keystone Nyan Cat]

Hello! I want to make a photo comparing different sizes of gaming mice, but it's taking a lot of time (mice are expensive!), so I thought I’d ask for help I'm not going to ask for funding, but rather you take photos of your mice in a standardized format and send it to me; it's that simple! I will do the editing and compilation of the photos and will upload the result. This would be beneficial for everyone- when buying a new mouse, it's often difficult to assimilate the size of the new mouse with respect to the current one being used. This project will enable you to gauge the size of your mouse, entitling you to make a more informed decision.

 

How to take the picture-

 

1. Download the template and print it on an A4 sheet of paper; place the the Lego bushing and SD card as required on the marked spot on the sheet. [Printing using Windows Photo Viewer for the .jpeg yielded a more accurate scale than did the .pdf for the template]
2. Secure the sheet to a surface (e.g.- using blutac) and place the mouse on it, with the front at the given marking.
3. For the side photo, ensure the base of the stud and base of the mouse are on the same level (see correct and incorrect photos); and place a green colored sheet as the backdrop (easy if placed against a wall) PS- If you have an adjustable mouse such as the Ouroboros or Cyborg’s RAT, its dimensions can vary. For this, kindly take a photo of its largest and smallest variations for top down and side view.
4. Take a photo of the setup in a well-lit room, ensuring the nearest point of the camera is exactly 15cm (5.9 inches) away from the dotted line for the side view, and at least 45cm (17.7 inches) for the top down view.
5. Kindly send your mouse's photo to corermaximus@outlook.com, preferably by the 15th of August. I would appreciate putting your mouse's model number and revision as the subject (it makes it easier to organize) and including your username in the body so I can acknowledge your contribution once the project is over!

I'll do the rest!

 

Based on the amount of brands and models of mice I receive, I plan to make versions for each brand, and one master version containing all the mice. All editing will be done using Photoshop, and everyone who sends me a photo will be acknowledged. I've already done so with four of my own mice. Here’s the Side View, the Top Down View, and here’s me taking the pictures

 

Thank you!

Couldn't we just have a ruler as a reference?
