Claims to Fame
Rob writes, "My photoshop claim to fame: the way the crop tool greys out the rest of the image? That was my idea. I sent it to the Abobe features request thing back in ooh probably about 1998. (After spending a frustrating day cropping images for a dull
website, and wishing the tool worked better.)"
What crappy claims to fame can you make?

They probably still do this, but back in the early eighties, me (8yrs) & my brother (10yrs) went to our local swimming pool for a David Wilkie "Swimathon" style of thing. When you get there you get the chance to have your photo taken with the great Olympian himself.
I remember joking with my bro that by the time we reached the end of the the slow moving queue the film would run out in the camera - it did.
He went fucking ballistic & lost the plot with the poor camera fella.
In amongst all the other bemused & crying urchins, I realised that to be a winner in life, you sometimes have to be a real cunt.
Take a bow Wilkie - you mad, bad, crazy bastard. I now swear like a fucking trooper because of you.
