<hr /></blockquote>Saw the site you included, thanks for posting it.

True story -- Some time ago Janette and I signed up for a membership with Swappernet. In fact, I believe that's where we ran across the URL for this board. Anyway, while looking through various ads, we came across one from a couple in Nova Scotia. For those of you, as Julie puts it, geographically challenged, Nova Scotia is an adjoining province to New Brunswick. Anyway, we wrote to them, since they weren't all that far away.

Their ad contained two pictures, one of each of them, but none of them together. Both pics had the heads cropped, the male's depicted a slim, athletic build, while the female's showed a woman laying in a bathtub. Again, no head, but an outstanding female figure.

We wrote to them, and received a short reply, not saying much about themselves except they have little experience. During the next couple of weeks, I made it a point to view as many couples ads as possible while our membership was still valid (and yes, being a man I concentrated on the ads with pictures). Well, lo and behold, after I clicked on a couple's ad from COLORADO, there's the very same picture of the woman in the tub!! Except this time, her face is clearly visible, and the picture was "flipped", or reversed from the one in Nova Scotia. But absolutely no doubt, the same picture. J and I even had both pics on the screen side by side for comparison. The Colorado ad included three other pictures, showing a couple more of her, all with her face showing. Janette and I had no doubt that THIS was the "real" woman in the ads, not our Canadian friends. I emailed both the Colorado couple and Swappernet support, and the Nova Scotia ad was gone the following day. We also received a very nice thank you email from the plagerized couple.

Moral of the story is -- on the internet, what seems to be, may not be after all.
