That's right. They replaced all of their high-res, image files with lo-res image files that are 90% smaller than their originals.
BUT, they have the gall to leave their original file sizes listed on their links. So, like instead of getting a 2 MB image file, you now get a 200K image file.
In FactCheck's original story, posted, August 21, they made specific references to a few of my discoveries I made about the COLB forgery in an attempt to dismiss them out of hand:
Among the most frequent objections we saw on forums, blogs and e-mails are:
* No creases from folding are evident in the scanned version.
* In the zoomed-in view, there's a strange halo around the letters.
And, they devoted an entire paragraph to dissing my most important finding:
The scan released by the campaign shows halos around the black text, making it look (to some) as though the text might have been pasted on top of an image of security paper. But the document itself has no such halos, nor do the close-up photos we took of it. We conclude that the halo seen in the image produced by the campaign is a digital artifact from the scanning process.
As everyone who has read my report should know by now that the pixel anomalies, that they call "haloes," are absolutely not scanner artifacts.
Well, on Thursday, the first part of my report made the front page of PHil Berg's website, ObamaCrimes.com, with my promise to show how the forgery was made, and to throughly debunk the FactCheck photos in Part Two.
Last night, I got a call from his legal assistant telling me that FactCheck had done this switch. I thought that she was talking about the thumbnails of the images, and not the downloadable ones.
Then, I saw it for myself -- and you should, too.
Anyone else think they're running scared???
All that knowledge is too precious to waste, so posted as below with a link to it at the end of the original Antimullah article.

Iranians are not Arabs and do not have the left hand for butt wiping and right hand for all else rules. The islamic regime version of the people, being dirty butt wipes themselves, cannot tell the difference.
You may be right that after that, the Bolivian might well have second thoughts. Or raise the amount of money he asks of them.

He’s doing late-stage, drugged-up Elvis!
Thank you for the ping..will check it out tomorrow.
I really dread looking at that link! UGGGH This entire election cycle is making me feel worse than I already do. I am NOT watching tv news unless provoked...like upcoming vp debates. Can’t miss that at all.
I have more to say but am too tired to write more...
Thanks again
Thanks for the ping!
Obama bots love it when we fight
***Some zerObama bots sign on to FR just to cause the fight. Maybe you can wade through the Bull Shiite. But first, you’ll need to know that according to the smartest guy on FR, you are really stupid. Don’t bother with the fact that he posts nothing of substance, just know that more insults will be coming your way, and that you aren’t smart enough to even understand them, dimwit. And by the way, idiot, now you know what it’s like to deal with him, so deal with it and get over it. So, dumbkopf, since you’re so above it all, let’s hear your solution. BTW, the insults were only borrowed and not really intended towards you — they’re just to get you in that proper state of mind that a provocateur aims for. Now go ahead and work out all the spaghetti code. I’ve got better things to do.
“Hard to believe that “the smartest guy on FR”....can’t figure that out.”
I have difficultly coming down to the level required to understand some people.
According to a certain Larry Sinclair, the anointed one is graba*stic..
As the original scans offered for examination, the size/resolution is integral to the story, so an observance that "fact" check changed the size for financial reasons is absurd at best.
I'm just commenting on the undue riducule heaped upon Polarik on this thread. I haven't visited fact check in some time, as I consider them biased, ill informed amatuers, and appreciate FReepers who alert us to suspected fraud and manipulation, especially when the deceivers are hanging neon "Trust Me" signs on their storefronts.
Your attitude might not get you TOSsed, but your language probably just did
Watch the language.
You could get a real clear answer on that by reading the PUMApac.org blogs, in relation to what Obama did to women at the Dem Convention. They were "bound and gagged" by Obama's thugs, fascist style intimidation at work.
(1) One cannot make out any wording whatsoever along the periphery of the raised seal. That raises the issue of whether a phony raised seal was applied by someone outside the Hawaii Health Dept.
(2) On the blowup image of the seal, with supposed 90 degrees rotation of the document with a view to the left, the printed lines form a different spacing pattern than they do on the whole (alleged) COLB. That suggests that the seal image may have been applied to a different document.
One more issue: the use of a "signature stamp" by the registrar (actually a stamp with a boilerplate (alleged) certification of authenticity and the registrar's signature underneath that certification). Such stamps can easily be made to order - from Staples, say - by a fraud artist, assuming that the signature of the official can be copied or traced. And even if such were an legit stamp ordered and posessed by the state government, that would have been a foolish move on the part of the state, since since such an "official" stamp could be stolen and used to "authenticate" fraudulent documents ad infinitum, or at least until the perps are apprehended.
“Watch the language.”
There should be a long list of names for that message.
“Your attitude might not get you TOSsed, but your language probably just did”
Both are in response to what people continue to say to me. Hypocrisy is fun for you though.
You're a stain looking for someone to clean you up.
I'm just passing by. You should think about looking for a destination as well.
Happy Trails.
I spent a moment trying to think of a response to that and realized that I could never lower myself far enough.
