Just a few days ago I'm reading a thread from Miss Mandy about watch what you post because you can easily be outed, and a lot of us here can't afford that to happen. Well I found out it is easier then that to get outed and I didn't need any computer skills at all.
I have to be careful how I explain this because maybe as I'm writing how I outed someone else I could easily out myself.
A few years back a friend of mine was renovating a restaurant bar and I took, let's call it a fixture. I refurbished it and modified it so one day I would incorporate it in my basement, when I decided to ever finish it.
Well the fixture sat in my garage for 10 years and my friend asked me if I wanted to sell it, because he was building a house for someone who would have a great interest in it. Seeing it sat there for ten years and I didn't touch my basement at that time, and not to mention my basement still isn't finished, he came to see it and I sold it. Once he finished his house he invited me for a drink and to see how he incorporated it into his home.
Well last night I was looking at some pictures on another site, and I'm not one to try to see the male behind the wig and make-up, I take it at face value and respect that I'm looking at a women. The picture came up of a woman sitting at a bar and I look at the hair then make-up, the wardrobe and then down the legs and of course the shoes. I flick to the next pic and something about the wood work of the bar caught my eye, my friend is very maticulur about the way he works, almost like always trying to be unique and almost putting his own stamp on his work. I start looking into it further and look up and my heart started beating fast because there it was, my fixture, and I know it's mine I did it myself, now I look at the face and there he was now clear as day. WOW!
I turn to my wife and show her the pic, God bless my wife she is the most layed back nothing fases her type person, all she said was" OH there's that piece of junk that was in the garage, and maybe you could call him because Im always looking for a friend to hang out with dressed. I didn't expect that answer but, this is just an example on how easy it is. So now I start viewing my pics that I don't post now but maybe one day who knows, and I notice because I'm so focused on looking at myself in the picture I neglect what I'm showing around. Most of my pics have family pictures that my kids can easily been seen, on another one there was a mirror image of my wife watching TV in the other room. WOW! It's that easy, that's all it takes, the wrong background. So I believe that in the future we should be careful and I thought I would share this as an example. Well I hope to help,others here I didn't out myself.
