PEANUUUUUUUUUUTS ...... TO YOU !!
not much happening around there this weekend...just cleaning, washing, hanging, wiping, folding, wiping, hanging, cleaning, baking, cleaning and the occasional image swap to teach some uneducated thieving web users a lesson on how not to link to an image.
see, there's this problem going on where people (mainly myspace users) find an image on the web that they'd like to include on their page so they link directly to it and by directly i mean by including the entire URL like this: http://www.i8bozo.com/images/filename.jpg where "filename.jpg" is the image in question. THIS - IS - BAD, PEOPLE!! do not do this!! i don't care how much you like the picture of curious george or the oompa loompas or the warner brother's logo - which you happened to find on MY blog.
what you should do is save the image to YOUR computer, then upload it to YOUR server because by not doing so, every time YOUR page is loaded and that cute little picture of curious george loads, it STEALS bandwidth from ME and i do not pay to host pictures for YOU. so instead, your ignorance has been the source of much humor and laughter for both myself and a few of my friends because what i've done is swap out the cute little image of curious george with that of a reclining DUDE with a HUGE (and i mean H-U-G-E) PEE-PEE.
now, the joke is on you. i hope this has taught you a valuable lesson. if anyone is curious to see the image i replaced, just kick me an e-mail and i'd be more than happy to share. it's not quite something i'd like emblazoning my blog.
oh yeah, photo class is going well. we're three weeks in (of four) and i'm not learning all that much but it is a novel activity so i continue going. the above picture is one that i used for an assignment where we had to work on either exposure or white balance. i chose exposure and submitted three different versions of this shot with varying exposures. although i don't really feel i'm challenged in this particular class, i do think i'll continue with the photography classes as i find it interesting.
snowboarding next weekend with the gang
