>>> Further, I have pointed out that the pictures in the frame by frame do not have shading for better debth perception and the camera angle seems to change to a higher level in the middle part of the swing. Don't think that they can be used to learn anything that is not clearly stated in the text. By the way, I have pointed out these concerns about the pictures in the frame by frame in the past with no responce.

Jack,

I don't think you posted that last note. But, If you did I don't know what you mean by "artwork."

Be that as it may, I will gone on to the next error. This error is not directly in the Frame-by-frame but is in the statement that describes the theory of the site which includes the frame-by-frame.

You say the the mechanics for hitting a baseball and softball are the same so all the methods taught on this site about the swing are the same. This is in error.

Fast pitch softball has less reaction time so their swing must be a little more compact/quicker. The frame-by-frame says that in the begining of the swing the batter should slightly turn his/her back to the pitcher and extend your front arm across the body should not be taught to softball hitters. These actions make the swing longer and it takes more time.
