Fence Ideas For Customers?


Do any of you have a good source for pictures of fences to show to customers? My portfolio isn't big enough to show a lot of ideas. I guess I could drop 50 pounds of Better Homes and Gardens on them, but I would rather just show them a big book of fence pictures. I will check the library, but I was wondering if anyone has a book that they like to show clients for ideas. Or is it a bad idea to give too many choices, (with a caveat to budget obviously).
