I don't have the time to go look back, but I couldn't sworn it was talked about.
    See my above post...

    I'm not upset... Just saying, it's never been an issue before, so why is it a big deal now? Especially since there is no concrete proof... All's there is is "she looks younger."

      As far as "That IS the rule," prior to today, when has the picture EVER been brought up, or denied?

      The ONLY time I can think was on Pamela Anderson. But, that auction was run with that rule in place. No auction before, or none since have been.

      He might care, but he did say quite a bit ago no old cards. It's also one of the reasons I sold Parker. While still attractive, I don't think time has been as kind to her.

            New Rule,
            You have to pick one of the 3 pics that the king post, when the new game starts.
            That will end all the trouble.

              I have no problem changing mine. The 2nd picture Bedard posted on her would be fine with me also...

                  If you want to make a rule now, fine. But my first pic today should be grandfathered in, along with the others cards beforehand, as nobody had an issue with any pic beforehand.

                      The big difference is that in your picture she looks 100 yrs younger. That's why it was brought up. It's a huge difference.

                      In mine, just as an example, you can't really see the difference - though quite frankly the 2nd picture Bedard had posted shows more skin - so I have no problem changing it.

                        The reason why this didn't work well, is because some of the pics he chose weren't appealing. Plus, some just wouldn't work. Yesterday's two didn't work at work and one didn't work at home.

                          "Looks younger" is all the proof you have. Also, to reiterate, there was no rule set in place, so the point of an older pic should be moot.

                          Of course you have no problem changing it... because you won't be the one that has to change all of the cards... It's on somone else's watch (Bedard's) so, of course, you don't have an issue with it.

                              Or, people could just grow up and let the winner of the card decide which pic to use... You know, like has been the case for the first 100-pus cards...

                                You seem to agree on not using older pictures beforehand:

                                From the Christina Aguilera thread:

If they can be older, then a younger Christina Applegate should have been used and the same could go for alot of contestants. I kinda thought that we were bidding & later judging on people as they are now - not at the peak of their "hotness". If so, then that changes things...

                                I'll continue to post more modern photos for the auctions.
