Your post took me aback somewhat. I certainly never meant to upset you in any way. I make slideshows all the time and naturally get the images where I see them.
So - I scrolled through the thread and just saved images, not noticing who posted any of them.
Have you ever made a slide show? I spent OVER two hours cropping and resizing images to the same exact size and to get the best effect. Not an easy task.
Then, because I forget, I went to Google and looked up the name of every one of those people to be sure WHO was a President, who was a Prime Minister and who is a King.
Then I spent much time doing the text work on each frame.
Then I had to decide the time delay to give the best results.
People here use images that others post all the time, redo them, alter them, etc. It just never occured to me that it would bother anyone and I apologize to you if it did.
I didn’t post until post #430, and I know everyone had seen and commented on your posts.
I commend you for the images you posted, I saw many when I was searching Google and found the Karzai image. Please realize the hours of work that I did.
We ought to get paid for this stuff! ;-)
Main point I guess is that this thing should and would go global and viral by Monday in the US to hit the US news cycle and talk shows--thanks to your organizing matters--and others pushing it to their lists. At least one hopes.
I was a bit cranky because I offered some insight yesterday on FR about this incident, and then I saw on FR 1/2 a day later, and elsewhere on the net my words almost literally lifted word for word and passed off as somebody else's thinking--I guess that's just the heat in the kitchen one can expect. Shoganai. No prob.
