Coach has an unusually loooooong right arm.
Photoshop confirmed, but not necessarily the same author.

>>”Ducky” ties the images to the same single source.<<
Sure it does. All the images were saved as “images for web” from photoshop. No bearing whatsoever on the creator of the image. I’ve seen photos going back years with Ducky in the exif data.

Ping for the group.
Interesting, The Obama basketball video could easily have been redubbed to make it appear as if someone that looked like him made the shot.
Given enough time I could dub it to say Barry Toot made the shot.
I don’t understand the point of this. Ignoring the analysis for a moment, are you actually suggesting that Obama did not go to Punahou? Columbia? Harvard?
I don’t get it. How is it that not one teacher, student or administrative staff have stepped forward to say he didn’t attend? Where did all the classmates that talk about him come from? This would be a conspiracy so large that literally tens of thousands of people would have to be involved. Only Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny would have more accomplices.
First of all, what's posted on Fight The Smears, Factcheck, Politifact, etc. is a
Now for more bad news.
The "Ducky" tag is nothing more than Photoshop Exif or metadata for saving an image to the web. When you use Photoshop's "Save for Web Quality," it applies a fairly high level compression to an image at a resolution of 72 DPI.
In other words, nothing sinister here!
In fact, except for a few shots at Punahou, Obama's presence in the vast majority of group shots was altered, or if you prefer, "Photoshopped."
What's worse, IMHO, is that there are ZERO group photos of Obama at college: none at Occidental and none at Columbia.
The graduation photo of Obama at Harvard was Photoshopped
Did anyone post post the previous Nicoloff article on FR? He claimed to get pictures from Stanley Ann’s kindergarten years in Oklahoma; but the pictures don’t look anything like any of the Dunhams. I’m worried someone may feeding him ad info. I think Nicoloff means well, though.
This is absolutely insane paranoia. It is an embarrassment to conservatives.
Who is this guy and how the heck did he get in the Oval Office?
Whoever wrote that analysis is almost certainly a gifted satirist. It’s written in the style of Hoagland’s ‘NASA photoshopped the Moon mission and Face on Mars’ conspiracy nonsense, but designed to appeal to the paranoid amongst us. The allegation about the Ducky EXIF tag added by Photoshop is surely an inside joke that tips the authors hand.
Creating a Hoagland style conspiracy theory on the alleged properties of twenty year old snapshots taken on an instant camera, and wavign away any conflicting evidence is a great way to paint conservatives as tinfoil hat wearing kooks.
