I don't know, I'm starting to see a lot of these problems as symptoms of societal disease rather than just individual pathology. The solutions will probably be conceptually simple, but will involve a lot of sacrifice, and a lot of redefining of what our society considers desirable. It's the implementation of a simple solution that always proves challenging.

Excellent pictures - how long did it take you to scan the photographs into Photoshop and then edit them? The only pencil that has come into contact with these "drawings" is the Photoshop pencil. A tip - stop trying to fool people into thinking you are a "real" artist, because all you are doing is cheapening proper artist's works whom have spent hours creating real pictures as opposed to a few minutes on a graphics editing package.

I'm amazed that people are still posting these photographs of animals and calling them pencil drawings. This is at least the third case I can remember (and there are probably more) of this happening. The myth about them being drawings was debunked long ago. It's also funny that whenever they get posted the person posting them doesn't make it clear that they aren't the artist, exactly as you have done.
- canadianmaple09
@canadianmaple09 I posted these back in March, 2009 when I was beginning to use FF regularly. I ran them through TinEye hoping to find their source, but it returned no results. When I ran through again yesterday, TinEye returned over four pages of results. If I had it to do over again, would I? Yes
- Michael Fidler
The people you refer do don't join "just to slam" someone, they are concerned members of the online art community that want to see real art appreciated and fake art or photos being passed off as drawings revealed for what they really are. Artists such as Brian Duey, Armin Mersmann, Paul Lung, Zindy Nielsen,and many others do not receive the appreciation they deserve because of scams like this.
- canadianmaple09
canadianmaple09, the worthiness of your motives notwithstanding (and they are worthy, definitely) you could definitely have approached Michael completely differently by say, giving him the benefit of the doubt rather than attacking in a highly accusatory tone.
- Chieze Okoye
When you've seen these same pictures posted multiple times by people that just find them on the internet and claim they are pencil drawings, when it has already been established on multiple occasions that they are not, the "benefit of the doubt" approach seems a little too generous. People post these images and claim they're drawings to get views for their own site or blog or page or whatever it is they post it on. It's wrong and it needs to be stopped.
- canadianmaple09
I can understand that, but you should also keep in mind that everyone is not as well-versed in the issue as you are. All I'm saying is that you would probably be more effective in this case if you weren't setting this up as a us-vs.-them, "must destroy with the validity my argument!" attitude when talking to a guy who's been actively having a discussion on the issue in what seems to me (having been around when he first posted the images and the follow up thread and what not) to be good faith.
- Chieze Okoye
Look at his first comment here. People clearly thought he drew them. He doesn't set the record straight. He also claims that they "are actually pencil drawings" and that "I have more drawings too." Later he claims that you need to look at them closer to see they are drawings and that he will "post the originals". Once again, this makes it sound like they are his. This follows the same...

I would probably qualify as an image analysis expert, but there's no way to prove that online. One thing we can do is look at color. Even though the images are black and white,they're actually RGB images, meaning they contain cyan magenta and yellow. If you look at the image of the rhino you have posted then look at the photo of the rhino at the photographer's site you can see they both...

"WATERVILLE, Wash. — An argument over butter in a macaroni and cheese recipe churned into violence between a brother and sister. A 21-year-old man called police June 6 to say his 17-year-old sister tried to cut his neck with the serrated edge of a spatula. The police report said the sister was making macaroni and cheese when her brother asked if she was using butter. That led to an argument over the difference between butter and margarine. And, then butter battle escalated."

Colleen, my point isn't that we should want to give up our arms, my point is that we don't really need them anyhow...and if it gets to the point where you do need them, they won't do you any good. 9mm vs armored Humvees = suicide. You'd be much better off learning how to make explosives AND that will most certainly get you in trouble.
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
Also, you have to keep this in context of whether or not the people with the guns are willing to shoot en masse on unarmed civilians.
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
@Victor - absolutely. I'm not saying immediate and deadly force is necessary. I'm just saying I'm not going to accept that overthrowing a government is guaranteed to succeed without some force. @Alex - nobody with a 9mm goes up against a HMMV except in the movies - guerilla warfare is where it's at if it comes down to it. And my armory is for personal protection and sport shooting, not taking out the government. :P
- ωαřмaiden ❤Marrit Woman❤
Exactly, because a legal armory doesn't much help for taking out a government such as ours...and guaranteed to succeed? I didn't say it was guaranteed to succeed, just that it is possible.
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
You assume that the people driving the tanks and firing the guns aren't going to just get up and leave. I doubt that most of them would fire on an unarmed crowd just because they were ordered to.
- Dave Roth
Yeah, Dave, I totally figure the same thing.
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
Perhaps a good counterpoint is that with an armed populace, you don't need to piss off nearly as many people to get overthrown?
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
On the other hand, I kind of wonder just how much social change has been halted or at least slowed down by armed citizens opposing such social change. The government doesn't actually have to do any of the oppressing when they can get the people to do it for them.
- Victor Ganata
Also (I don't know if you were getting at this earlier Alex, but I guess you were), while someone in the military might find the idea of shooting into an group of unarmed citizenry unsavory, a lot of that distaste goes away in a group of armed citizenry. And let's face it, most groups of armed citizenry would be very ill-matched against the US military.

I think the (thus far) successful resistance of the Taliban has less to do with how well armed they are and more to do with their will to resist and the support they have among the populace. For both sides, though, it's hard to win support when you're blowing people away.
- Victor Ganata
Yeah, I don't think exercising the 2nd amendment can, at this point, actually prevent a military despotism in this country if that's what's in the cards for us, but it can allow you to successfully intimidate your fellow citizen whom you disagree with and who isn't as heavily armed.
- Victor Ganata
Insofar as every state has their own militia because of the 2nd amendment, I think that a military despotism could be withstood in this country, Victor.
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
The National Guard units that every state has are militias in the true sense of the word, Geoff.

No, and perhaps a greater question is if they can operate at all without the aid of the regular armed forces.

"it can allow you to successfully intimidate your fellow citizen whom you disagree with and who isn't as heavily armed."

Rochelle, (and I've heard this personally from a Finnish friend), it's completely normal/common to leave babies outside for an evening nap in Finland http://suomitalvi.blogspot.com/ . Hints at the background to this practice here: http://blog.washingtonpost.com/finland...
- Micah
Heh, wow, that's outside in a stroller. Sometimes in subzero temperatures :D
- Victor Ganata
I can understand being outside for a little bit, but locked in a car where the tempurature is 112 with the windows rolled up because you don't want your stereo or baby stolen, is a a bit ridiculus, if you're going to take your child with you, by golly take your child WITH YOU, if you can't then call a babysitter or find a daycare. $50 or a chance of death/jail time, I'll spend the $50 tyvm.
- Tsali - A dude man
from IM
I'm not sure they're necessarily comparable. The parents who take their baby outside for naps probably don't leave them out there unattended, and the posts you linked spend some time talking about how you need to make sure the baby is reasonably protected from the elements. Whereas if you leave your baby (or your pet) in a car unattended on a hot, summer day, it can easily get to 130 degrees in there even after half an hour, even with the windows cracked.
- Victor Ganata
I like the Finnish idea better then the car idea. It sounds a lot like something my grandma would have done if she didn't. (My mom's side is all Finn.)
- Heather
Victor, regarding being comparable, I wasn't thinking of the temperature risk; more a kid being left alone. If by not unattended at home you mean the baby outside and the parent inside, then yes. It's also common to park the baby in the stroller outside of a store while the parent goes in to shop.

Sort of. I read labels. If it's a food that doesn't need a sweetener and I see that as a major ingredient, I don't get it. I wouldn't get it if it listed sugar as a major ingredient, either. If it's replacing another sweetening agent, I don't worry ~as~ much about it.

Yes. The research has been suggestive of HFCS being implicated in obesity and diabetes for quite a while, and now studies aimed at resolving the issue are finding that where there is smoke there is fire. Of course, another reason is that the OH is severely allergic to anything containing corn, corn by-products, or corn derivatives. Makes it tough to shop for groceries, let me tell you.

Theoretically, Heather, it should be possible to avoid foods with HFCS in them without paying a premium.
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
I say theoretically, because it really comes down to what stores you have access to in your area. If there's a Trader Joe's near you, most of their condiments and what not are pretty inexpensive and have no HFCS and some brands are now purposefully switching back to sugar and marketing themselves as having no HFCS. For instance, Hunt's (I believe it is) Ketchup.
