Don't talk about compression rate unless you know anything about it. :lol

And as I said, artifacts look different in every situation.

"Manipulated?" :rofl: How so?

the distortion behind his head is actually what the brick looks like if you go to the picture used by the author you can see the bricks there are stained how its shown in the one with the suspect

'edit - your post was still miss guided because the evidence your pointing was manipulated.

Here's what you do.

Open the picture up on your monitor.

Stand about 10 feet back.

Now do you see the bricks? Anything is going to look like shit when you blow it up past the 100% crop.

What is a 100% crop? When you're looking at the pixels in a 1:1 ratio. Once you zoom past that, your computer tries to figure out on it's own what's supposed to be there, resulting in artifacts like you see here.

I don't know about you but I can still clearly see the outlines of the bricks in their normal size. The lines you're referring to are off color because of the reason above.

I can dance all day because what you've done is bring a knife to a gun fight, CiC. You've now run into a problem because while there are very few of us here that are actual experts in politics and such so you can run to your silly PressTV source but what we have here is a situation where several of us know more than you and any source you cite.

What you should've done was say "Oh, I guess that guy was wrong." like 50 posts ago and we would've had a bit more respect for you.

Instead, what I see now is that you'll believe ANYTHING that isn't the official story regardless of how unreliable the source is just BECAUSE it's not the official story.

Anyways as I played with, it looks like the unique pattern behind the head is multiplied and filled over in the FBI photo.... a classic photoshop technique!

You posted false evidence that you created yourself... what you and Ronin are unable to understand is you basically took the original photo and added distortion to it and were comparing it to the original suspicious distortion around the head.

Up to this point, I kind of had an idea of where the crazy train was headed...

but with this post, I'm so lost.

I didn't add distortion to anything. I didn't post any photos I edited myself. I just pointed out that the pictures you're using are zoomed in too close (>100% crop) and the irregularities you see are the resulting artifacts and JPEG compression....which is what any reasonable person would assume.

And even if you're right, you're saying that a group of people with unlimited resources basically hired someone to do a worse Photoshop job than I could do in 15 minutes.

Also, if you're right, the following had to have taken place.

1. The FBI found a picture of the suspect in front of a similar brick wall with smaller bricks and instead of cutting just the suspect, the FBI decided to cut the bricks too and blend them in.

...alright, although incredibly stupid, it can be done.

2. The FBI would need the picture to be the correct perspective...meaning he's facing the correct direction and the lighting is also in the correct direction. Photoshopping one thing onto another when the perspectives don't match is always a dead giveaway. That's usually how you can tell those pictures of Emma Watson naked aren't real.

If you find a link to a specialist in forensic imaging backing up what you're saying, then I'll believe it but right now all you have is the opinion of a random person.

Keep digging.

Oh, if you're referring to the picture that Lomac posted, it's hotlinked from an article on Photo.net explaining JPEG compression and how it works....something that if you read, you'd see why we're right. Or do the Zionists run that site too?

I'm quite curious why you think some random guy has more credibility than people that actually know what they're talking about? Or YOU for the matter. Why on earth would you think you know more about this subject than me?

When you're in the minority, you usually need to prove your point. You can't just say "THE WORLD IS FLAT!" "What? But we thought the world was round. Where does it say the world is flat?"

"FUCK YOU THE WORLD IS FLAT."

How did I "add distortion" when all I did was highlight certain parts of the photo and tell you to look at your own copy?

...unless I secretly hacked your computer, elite zionist style, and uploaded my own photo to replace the one on yours... :whistle:

You do realize every time a photo gets uploaded, downloaded, and then reupped, the service provider (be it Facebook, Photobucket, Imageshack, etc) compresses the file even further, thus degrading the quality... right?

They aren't real?

Dammit!

:okay:

If this was the Revscene of old, I'd totally veer this thread into Photoshopped celebrity nudes... :lol

you mean we can't do that anymore? because there are some good ones of emma stone just sittin here... :whistle:

No, you can't do that in this thread.

:ifyouknow:

But you're also going along in this conversation, it shows you just feed off only what every you're point of views is.

And even if you're right, you're saying that a group of people with unlimited resources basically hired someone to do a worse Photoshop job than I could do in 15 minutes.

Are you talking about the U shape? because they may of been placed behind his head, then cut out and made to also cover over the backpack section.

No, just refereed to the circled and distortion added pics.

There is a box of distortion around the guys head... an unusual distortion, but really you're on my un-updated 911 members thread list of members lacking common sense.. so stop replying to me in these large paragraphs.

When you're in the minority, you usually need to prove your point. You can't just say "THE WORLD IS FLAT!" "What? But we thought the world was round. Where does it say the world is flat?"

"FUCK YOU THE WORLD IS FLAT."

Love how you're questioning me about presenting flawed evidence based on "maximum zoom distortion," yet you're taking that original link at full face value when myself, Ronin and the others are saying the exact same thing.

Lulz were had here = this post wins the thread.

I love that he says we lack common sense when he has several people with real world experience telling him he's wrong and zero to suggest he's right other than the opinion of a random person with zero knowledge about photography or Photoshop.

Love it. You can say all you want. CiC, but there isn't a single person on this forum that's going to agree with you on this one, bud. We now know that you'll just believe any conspiracy theory just because they're conspiracy theories.

This is the point where I begin to think CiC is 100% troll. We've called him stupid before, but nobody could be that stupid and not be classified as mentally retarded.

And no, I wasn't referring to the U-shape.

I mean that if you're going to photoshop someone into a picture, the original has to be taken from the same perspective or else it looks funny. For example, if the original was taken by Yao Ming and the pic of the suspect was taken by Peter Dinklage, then it isn't going to look correct no matter how much you finesse it.

I used celebrity nudes as an example because the giveaway is perspective most of the time. You need the original and the cut to be from pictures that are taken from the same spot or for the person to be facing the exact direction. Why do you think they have those suits with the bulbs on them for CG in Lord of the Rings?

If its a photoshop, then they've got this perspective thing spot on. Lighting and such is also consistent with a real picture.

But if its a photpshop, they've done it in the most moronic way ever by cutting a smaller brick wall with the suspect.

It's not a photoshopped picture. You're just stupid.

Oh man this is hilarious.

Ronin just say you believe that 9-11 was an inside job so he can take you off the list and then actually read your responses without ignoring them. :D

So nothing? Nothing to defend what you think counts as credibility, Charlie?

I just presented my own evidence... go find the original released picture and zoom behind his head... those matching shapes should only be on one row of bricks... I dont have time to read rants... if you got something solid put it in point form.

they do have solid points. why don't you try reading it with an open mind instead of being brainwashed

It's your classic "I'm wrong, but I won't admit so I'll just ignore everyone else and shift the argument again or just ignore LOGIC AND EVIDENCE presented to me and close my eyes and ears."

Maybe his parents are blood related...

Dunno what's worse the border line trolling or you guys taking the time to write out multi paragraph responses to the trolling.
