My opinion is that it was pretty rude of "blaise_f" to so blatantly hijack the thread with a bunch of his own pics and questions. I realize he started a thread in the appraisals forum and no one responded, but that should just be a clue to start another thread in regular C and V, not elbow in on another poster's ID thread. My gosh, it's not like they charge you to start a new thread.
