Well, I suppose there is a crack in everything! ;-)
Sorry for being critical of your photo, musicmania, but I just don't like that kind of thing, for reasons already given.
(The reference which puzzled you was to liverpoolken's cartoon on the Cambodia thread.)
I loved your original rose photo mentioned by Diane -there's nothing like the genuine article!

Thanks. I love it too and have it printed in its original form on canvas. It has pride of place between an oil painting of Leonard singing So Long Marianne which a friend painted for me using a photo I took in Dublin last year and a framed print of the poster for Leonard's 75th birthday last :)

(I've just checked out that thread now and I can certainly see where you are coming from) :!:

If you read my original post more carefully you will see that paragraph 3, including the sentence you underlined, is not about you at all - it's not all about you, you know!! :)

I have seen enough of what teenagers can do to bully one another with this kind of fake photo to be wary of them, not to mention how the gutter press can vilify some politician by showing him/her in an incriminating situation which never existed. There are still some people innocent enough to say "But it's true, I saw the photo in the paper!" Of course there was no question of you trying to deceive - anyone looking at your "self portrait with LC" would recognise it as a fake - the difference of scale was a giveaway. ( e.g. one face was bigger than the other! ) If I were you I wouldn't want that "up there", on the grounds of quality, but do what you like with your photos, doesn't bother me.

Here we were having a bit of fun on this thread about make-up, hair pieces, etc., until you arrived here, all offended....
:roll:


I have to ask - what would Leonard think about this conversation? The topic of this thread is "fake photos" so why wouldn't musicmania think it was all about her/him? Just wonderin'...
Ring the bells that still can ring. Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in.
