  • Confused as to why I should PM someone I don't know to tell her that she shouldn't post about cropping objects because then I will post about cropping unsightly people from pictures. Maybe I should have included the work unsightly.

    If anyone can answer this - let me know. Also - the lottery numbers for this evening would be nice.
  • I cant stand when I can see a huge mess behind someone in pics. messy is messy but just plain nasty is a whole other thing. I mean clear a path before you take your pis haha

    :huh:
    If we could only crop people we'd be in buisness.

    Ahhhh.....a reply to my comment without quoting me. Seems pretty cowardly, however, you're not going to get me to derail this thread. If you'd like to PM me any comments you have about me posting, I'd be happy to address you there.
    Really- I didn't know you owned the word crop. I don't know you. So I'm not sure why I'd be a coward to make a comment that had nothing to do with you except the use of the word crop. Last time I check this was a thread about people taking portraits with extra stuff in the background. Hence the cropping of people. Please ask yourself if you're that important that this guy is talking about me before stepping off your high horse.

    I asked you to PM me so we don't derail this thread.

    Too late.....just out of curiosity, why didn't you PM him your comments instead of posting them here, as not to derail this thread?

    Ha ha ha! This makes me laugh! The comments were made 4 min apart and I know a few moments ago there was a delay/glitch on MFP causing it to take 2 minutes for my post to go on another thread through so this "duplicate" post can be forgiven I'm sure. Too bad the super angry response comments were deleted, that would have amused me more ;)

    Ps: I would love to google worse self shot online to totally start up this contest but I fear it may be NSFW (not safe for work). If you guys want to go ahead, super!

    LMFAO I've noticed this. I'm pretty handy with my self-portraits. I don't do mirror pics, and I'm not too messy. When I take a picture I'm *usually* mindful of my background.

    This. Kindda wild how it was all copacetic and happy on the thread then one post from one person. And the second post from that person is hostile. Weird. I don't get it.

    Ummm.....unless you two had some falling out someplace else I don't see what the hell this is all about.

    His post didn't seem to be directed at anyone to me.

    I don't take too many self portraits anymore but I always tried to hide the messy background...or edit it out. haha I haate showing a mess in the background. Oh...and other option...it only shows my face and/or body and not the background. :P Or I would try to do them in front of a white wall...or just a plain wall...I did that a lot too...

    I did a bathroom mirror pic once, but I don't have a dirty house. In fact, I had a couple people tell me my sink was super clean lol

    I'm not really concerned with what people have in the background of their pictures; I'm more concerned with boob shots. Why in the world do we need to see a close up of your cleavage as your avatar? I'd rather 'unsee' that compared to someone's messy house.

    Well, it's not really YOUR attention that they are trying to get.

    I believe you are the 4th person to post that picture. I also believe I don't want to see that turd ever again.

    I'm usually so fixated on the profile puppies, that I rarely ever notice the chocolate manatees in the background.

    whatever.

    Yours shows up with your head cut off, the central focus being your boobs.

    Just sayin.

    That happens with quite a few womens pics...since it centers the pics.

    I ain't complainin.

    Ya, MFP tends to cut off heads. I thought the central focus was my right shoulder.


    Your cleavage is impressive, by the way.

    I do bathroom mirror self portraits all the time and YES, I do pay attention to the background and the cleanliness of the mirror. I did post one with a questionable-y dirty mirror but apologized for it in advance.

    I like photos so if you have a messy background I have probably looked at it. I am just that kinda person :)

    I can hang with people seeing a messy bed in the background but not a toilet. lol

    I've only ever seen those cleavage shots here on MFP. No one on my Facebook has any "compromising/risqué" pictures probably because either they are prudes or because most of them are too scared about posting things on the Internet that can potentially come back and bite you in the *kitten* in the professional area. ( you know, everything you post on the web is permanent and who knows if you ever apply to one of those firms that do media/Internet history searches of you/your email or whatever lol)
