Heads Up - Multiple COLBS Warning [someone swapped out the Kenya BC AFTER it was posted]

I hadn’t thought to check the comparative value. Excellent point.

I will send some congressmen comments on the 14th amendment that wrote it.

“It’s all your fault. Maybe the DUmmies will focus on you for a while & give JimRob & Polarik a break.”

LOL They won’t stop.

You’re seeing what you want to see, not what’s actually there. There is a different in resolution between the two documents; you’re seeing JPEG artifacting that’s making it appear that the characters are different. They are not. The “obvious” K is easily readable as an E if one just takes the time to not TRY to see a K. The 0 still resembles an 0 even at high resolution - there’s a very obvious JPG artifact obscuring the top right of the 0 which is making people believe it to be a 6. They’re both pictures of the same document.

All fuddle-duddle over nothing.

Absolutely. I created that first image... it's an "E" and any "K" that is being seen is an artifact of converting a large PNG file to a small JPEG file.

Someone with deep education on forging audio tapes made significant but very hard to detect changes to the initial interview with the step-granny of Obama back in Kenya. Then when a second interview was played in media, someone spliced comments from the secodn tape into the first interview and posters at FR have been trying to assert the spliced version is the authentic one! Someone is paying experts to make forgeries because they are scared blind that the truth will be revealed!

I stopped paying attention to him after around his 4th post...

whoops! didn’t know that sorry...how did they abreviate?

[Swordmaker]

Then you're an outright liar. Here, uploaded to Photobucket are two comparisons, the high-rez one on the left, the 'real' one on the right. I've zoomed both to make sizes relatively similar, but yet still show enough detail: I have not made ANY changes to the originals, other than zoom. Comparison 1: 47044

No, he's not a liar. He is merely mistaken.

Adammon, I am the one who posted that original copy on FR. I made it. It was made from an 860K PNG capture file converted when uploaded to my image hosting service to an 87K JPEG. The "K" is an artifact of that conversion.

Can you tell us where the comments came from?

Thanks ...they made my day

Hold the Presses! My daughter just showed me something.

She had me open both the Australian and Kenyan documents in Photoshop Elements. From there she had me under the Image menu "Divide Scanned Photos". Nothing appeared on the Kenyan document, however six layers pealed away from the Australian one.

These layers all showed distortion.
Layer 1 - Date and Place of Birth
Layer 2 - Father (followed by) Name, Surname, Age and B
Layer 3 - Name, Surname and Birthplace
Layer 4 - Issue { Living Deceased
Layer 5 - Signature, Description Informant
Layer 6 - The entire right section of the page, specifically the inserted text fields and bottom right quadrant

Will post these late tomorrow afternoon. The interesting thing about Photoshop elements is that on edited photos it will pull them apart. On unedited photos there will be no layering. All of the separated layers exhibited a great deal of pixel distortion around the letters.

I believe the Australian certificate is a fraud. I can not confirm the authenticity of the Kenyan document.

Will be heading to bed shortly.

tastes like chicken

I don’t know how they abbreviated schillings & cents. They may have used the d. as in pence, but that’s a good question. An old Kenyan newspaper might have an ad that would show it, preferably a Mombasa newspaper from August 8th or so, 1961, with birth announcements from the local hospital!

Ping.

[Fred Nerks]

interesting, for the list?

[woofie]

I think this post should have its own thread..I dont know if its definitive yet but I am fairly convinced that the Aussie BC is fake

[Fred Nerks]

Now that I would like to see!
