It's hard to know what's already here. It's a huge thread and extremely difficult to look back through everything without investing serious time. However, if you're going to post a lot of older athletes like Hantuchova or Vlasic, or Sharapova...you can assume those pics are already here somewhere. It's impossible to avoid reposts. I mostly post to my own threads, still, I often catch myself posting something I've forgotten I've posted before. The best thing to do in that situation is to slow down. Avoid posting just to post. Look through the thread you want to post on and try to add something fresh. Try posting lesser known athletes. There are plenty out there. The fresher your content, the more appreciation you'll get -and it keeps the forum from stagnating.

Hi Fox Mulder, thanks for the feedback. Firstly, had no idea I'd chosen not to receive PMs so thanks for pointing that out, which I've now remedied. And yes, you're right, there is a lot of content on this thread which does make it difficult to know what's been posted before. I take your point though, particularly on the tennis posts, that some of these are well known athletes and so are likely to have been posted in the 600+ previous pages.
For the first few years I was a member of this forum I did just consume content and not post any. I often found that posts on various threads would pique my interest, and send me down various rabbit holes, and at some point I decided why not post some of what I found on my web travels back to this forum. I'll continue to do so, but nonetheless your observations are both valid and genuinely appreciated.
