Yes Michael Shaffers' latest member pic has some pretty bad Photoshopping. I don't get it. Is he supposed to be one of the Bee Gees on fire or something?

Wait wait wait....
Let me make sure I have all the facts..

Am I to understand that Joe Redifer is complaining about bad photoshoping on a member pic??

It's the poster for the Stephen King movie "Firestarter", except the girl's face has been replaced with Michael's. Check the Yak thread "Stirring the pot".

What do you expect? It was done by a cinemawhore you know.

Website coming soon... I've almost found enough loose change to register the domain.

Hmmmm, I wonder where that site will be hosted?

Well that sure WAS NOT printed by the guy in One Hour Photo. Had it been it would have been absolutely perfect.
The Magenta balance on Michaels picture is at least 18 units off!Mark

That may not be Adam`s fault. I have a medical condition called Intermediate Magenta Deficiency (IMD). There is a special drink with Magenta in it that I have to take every day, but still my Magenta level is not stable.

Mike,
You are very lucky that is THE only one they posted!!! [Razz]

At least the "management" has had the decency to spare Rach and me (and the members) from the "Baby Rachel Doll" and the "Phil Hill Action Doll"... pics! [Big Grin]

Who said it was a conscious decision. Maybe somebody just forgot. [Big Grin]

Yeah, but those pics are so cool.... (He says, ducking!)

You will see in the original thread that I fully admitted that it was a crappy rush job. [Smile]

Mike, my mad photoshop skillz are better than dat! I guess I don't read every thread so it doesn't make much sense to me. Making fun of other members is easier to "get". Of course the pictures I make fun of with my own are no longer available. I've been toying with the possibility of just submitting a single non-changing picture of my own.

A small example of my madd Photoshop skillz:

The pic on the left is the original (Bobby Henderson).
The pic on the right is me.

Joe - That is just plain freaky.

Posted by Bobby Henderson (Member # 840) on 04-13-2003, 02:27 PM:

Freaky? That one? You obviously didn't see the skewed eyeball photo I posted of myself back when the Colorado Avalanche last won the Stanley Cup. Now that's freaky!

Posted by Rachel Gilardi (Member # 1016) on 04-13-2003, 04:38 PM:

Brad: not sure if you noticed but my post count is down now that the baby doll pic is up. [Frown]

That should make Michael happy!

Posted by Michael Schaffer (Member # 1204) on 04-13-2003, 06:44 PM:

I have nothing to do with this blond doll picture. It hasn`t been authored by me, nor did I put it up as a member`s pic - how could I, I am not a moderator!

Posted by Rachel Gilardi (Member # 1016) on 04-13-2003, 07:06 PM:

I meant that it should make you happy because I haven't been posting as much...

Yep Yep! I wasn't a Chipper baby!

Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 04-13-2003, 08:57 PM:

Not to worry Rachel. Joe is currently working on his impersonation of the pic with you and your binkie. I'm sure it will be quite horrific. [Eek!]

Freaky QuickTime movie of Joe actually morphing into Bobby.

Even FREAKIER QuickTime morph.
