I DO APLOGIZE

Marie of Bound and Determined blog has busted my bubble! She commented on my last post on Marilyn Monroe and informed me that the last two pics I posted, were in fact not Marilyn. At first I thought she was just yanking my chain, (she enjoys doing it) however, subsequently a person by the name of Dave also left a comment, confirming what Marie'd said. Now not only my bubble got busted, but with it, also my ego! I was down and out. So I sulked for a whole day!

However, after contemplating, I decided that all I have to do is apologize. When I downloaded those pics, I got them from a Marilyn website, and I posted them in good faith. I am sure you will all agree, sometimes when you do a post, you are pressed for time, and I just didn't pay proper attention to the finer detail on the pics. Not that I would have noticed a difference as my laptop is quite old and the graphics not very good quality.

Be that as it may, I know it remains my responsibility to make sure what I post is correct, so I accept full responsibility. (If Marie will be so kind as to inform me when the hearing is, I will make sure that my case in defence is ready... lol..)

I would however like to thank Marie for informing me, I do appreciate it and I will in future do my best not to make the same mistake again. However, if any of you folks out there have a minute to spare, please take the time to drop by Marie's site, she is a lovely girl, and will be only too happy to entertain you.
Thanks again Marie, you are sooo sweet.

RANT AND RAVE!

Now it is not everyday that I rant or rave about anything where blogging is concerned. Well, maybe my wife will not agree with me....but she can only read my blog, not post on it, so you will never get her version.

Does this photograph mean anything to you? Do you know who it is in this photograph?




And this one, granted, by looking at the tattoos you can see it is Megan, but if there were no tattoos??



Ok, now you should have an idea what my problem is - why do people take pictures, or publish, or post pictures of only half a person? Isn't it frustrating? I used pics with cropped heads to demonstrate what I mean. My problem is pics of girls with their legs and/or feet cut off!! Why not publish the whole damn picture while you are at it? Does it take more effort, more time, more megs, or more paper? Hell, I am sure if you can publish half a pic, you might as well publish the whole pic...!!

Doesn't this look better, the person was born with legs, and with feet, and with a head for that matter, so show us everything, we want to see it, well I do, don't know about you?! In posting this pic, I did not spend one moment more than with the cropped ones.



Well, now you know how I feel about cropped photographs, and I feel a whole lot better after blowing off steam. But I would love to hear your opinion on this subject. Don't be shy now...
