Besides, in today's world a photo doesn't mean anything. I'm sure there are at least a thousand Freepers who can come up with the requisite image in a couple of hours work.

True, but a photochopped version would invalidate any real image that might show up later. Remember how the photochopped Kerry-Fonda as a fake outpaced the Kerry-Fonda real on the news.

Photochopping is ok if it is obvious that it is a satire. If it appears too real, and people take it as such, it becomes a fraud.

Be careful when photochopping if you want the event to have credibility and validity.

Only about 10 minutes using software supplied with a $70 scanner.
