Annabelli Posted September 27, 2007 Report Posted September 27, 2007 I did not check my personal e-mails that I received yesterday until about 2:00 a.m. today. Then I was calling a lawyer by 2:30 a.m. A family member who took possession of our family pictures etc had sent me a calendar that they had made from my pictures twenty years before I came into the Church. They had also revised the RM Calendar and inserted my pictures into it. That person has since took down their Internet shopping cart and is cheerfully making a full contribution for my legal fees. I have now learned that many members have been exploited prior to the RM Calendar by non-members. Quote

Annabelli Posted September 27, 2007 Author Report Posted September 27, 2007 With the RM Calendar out there, I was not nearly so embarrassed by the pictures that were sent to me. And I do not think that they should be used to exploit my membership in this Church in any way. Anyone who has pictures of people living a different lifestyle before they came into the Church can do as they please with those pictures but they should not be making a profit from doing so. There is no reason to post outdated pictures of people as if to say that this is who they are today. Quote
Annabelli Posted September 27, 2007 Author Report Posted September 27, 2007 It did not confuse my lawyer in the least bit. Quote

Annabelli Posted September 27, 2007 Author Report Posted September 27, 2007 No, iffy jeans and bandana tops. Quote
Old Tex Posted September 27, 2007 Report Posted September 27, 2007 No, iffy jeans and bandana tops. OK, I got that. Now, what is a RM Calendar? (And just how iffy on the jeans?) Quote

the_jason Posted September 27, 2007 Report Posted September 27, 2007 Anna, when starting a thread it might be helpful to give some background so people know what the hell you are talking about. Quote
prisonchaplain Posted September 27, 2007 Report Posted September 27, 2007 I'm wondering if I'm tracking with this string correctly. I take it that Annabelli had some pictures from her pre-conversion days used in ways that were embarrassing and beneath current standards of righteousness. Now she is getting legal assistance to correct this misuse of her image. If so, bravo. Stand up for yourself, and fight the good fight. However, I was not aware that the RM calendar in question was produced with pictures obtained without permission, or under false pretenses. So, am I missing something here? Quote

StrawberryFields Posted September 27, 2007 Report Posted September 27, 2007 No, iffy jeans and bandana tops.Hey I used to wear hip huggers and mid drifts! That was the fashion in the 70's... I looked faily decent in them too I would worry too much about the fashion you spoke about.... it's in the past and I wouldn't worry about it. :) Quote
Palerider Posted September 28, 2007 Report Posted September 28, 2007 For a minute thereI thought I was back in the 70's and was,,....well..... ....never mind....LOL!!! Quote

So, am I missing something here?Apparently people are able to take parts of pictures from one photograph and copy them into another photograph. They took some of the RM Calendar pictures and added pictures to make it look like polgamy. Quote

shanstress70 Posted September 28, 2007 Report Posted September 28, 2007 I too was thoroughly confused when I read this post. Now after several other posts it's coming together somewhat. However, this is still confusing me: "A family member who took possession of our family pictures etc had sent me a calendar that they had made from my pictures twenty years before I came into the Church. They had also revised the RM Calendar and inserted my pictures into it. That person has since took down their Internet shopping cart and is cheerfully making a full contribution for my legal fees." Your family member was selling this calendar that he made, containing your photos embedded somehow in the RM calendar? Wow, Annabelli, you must be quite the looker for him to be making money off of you! Quote

Wow, Annabelli, you must be quite the looker for him to be making money off of you! It is a SHE. The calendar was separate from the RM picture make-overs. I am trying to post my family picture on the other thread. Just a middle class average mom. Quote
