Made from findings

**MsPotatoHead** · 03-06-2013, 06:24 PM

Little something I like to make from Dumpster finds.

Everything is found. Ribbon, beads, hoop bracelets, cording. I sell them for $3 a piece when I'm in a dry spell and need gas for the van. So if you see me standing on a corner in your town with a sign saying "Out of gas, buy a Dreamcatcher", say hi at least.

Share anything you make from your findings.

[edit] I changed the affiliation from adult to worksafe in the image sight. Maybe that will help.

[edit again] Im sorry,
Im terribly embarrassed. I have used that image sight on many other forums and no one has ever said anything. please delete the thread. I removed the picture and will only repost when i find a clean image host. My apologies go out to anyone that was offended.

While this is funny and poor Ms. Potato Head likely does not know she has a bug, I had a VERY similar bug in my boss’s machine once.

We spent MONTHS build an awesome disaster recovery plan. My boss had told the world all about it and how great it was. The day it went live, he decided to add just a tiny tidbit to the title page- not knowing his machine had a bug.

Well this bug was an "old school" type, not really harmful in that it did not destroy the document or the computer. But it did randomly replace the graphics of generators, truck mounted servers and pictures of all the preparations we had made with some fairly tastefully done pornography.

The funny thing is, the pictures would alternate back and forth. One minute a picture of diesel generator, the next a scantily clad woman lying upon a soft fur rug.... then back again.

Thank God nobody from corporate viewed the files. (They were all stuck up anyway, because we had come up with this, rather than corporate.) We fixed the bug and away we went- wiser for the experience.

Ms Potato Head, you need to scan your computer. Your stuff is way cool though. Where are you at now?

Webmaster, you should get this bug off the post before it spreads to other computers. My anti-virus caught it. It looks like yet another Java exploit or something similar.

If you need help, let me know. I am a Systems Admin by trade.

Try photobucket, you won't have that problem, or some use tinypics.

Would be a good idea to just use the trusted photo sites we recommend, and post the images using the instructions we provide... There are literal reasons why we don't allow uploads and why we recommend specific sites, we don't make any money by recommending them. ie photobucket and imageshack

I blocked the URL of that image hosting site entirely.

There's a sticky in the support forum. regarding how to post pictures and the sites we recommend.

Not a worry friend. It's fixed now. The internet gets "screwyer" all the time with scams and rip offs. No one was offended and it was taken with a bit of humor.

Most likely the image service you were using has no idea they were hacked and that this is going on.

Those of you that did click on the photo though, might want to scan your machines. I caught it attempting to download a virus.

Not trying to be a stuck up geeky snob, But alas this is why I use linux. NEVER get a virus or malware or spyware or anything. Just my .02.
