# pardon the TJ
but i thought you'd like to know that the February issue of maxim has an "is it real" feature that includes the "isitreal" picture and the one of the guy holding the giant cat. and i didn't see any b3ta type credits . . .

somebody should tell someone

# Why would b3ta be credited?
Neither of those pics were anything to do with b3ta originally.

# Yes it's been posted here
in the same way the argie football pic was posted here and many others. But that doesn't mean a b3tan was responsible.

I'll wonder off now..

# I've noticed that people complain whenever b3ta pics are stolen
but nobody seems to mind when we steal source images from getty and places like that.

# Yep
Most of our pics are photoshops of stolen pics, so we can't really complain..

Getty & Corbis are "The Man" and we're anarcho image terrorists or something :)

# They didn't start out here originally, so no.
But, I did see what was either major mindpiss or a blatent theft on Rory Bremner the other night.

It was a "Hutton Whitewash" range of paints, which was done by someone here last week.
