Pretty easy to figure out. 1. She's wearing the suit you use for your MySpace pic. 2. She's a slut.

hehehehe

I thought it might be her Cellar tattoo.

I didn't know they had a "panorama" setting on the cameras of that era.

Good lord, I'm glad you mentioned that--I missed half the pic!

I've seen another old picture of a big group like that. I was told that they actually had to pan the camera (maybe that's where the name comes from: pan-o-rama), and in this picture the man who was at the left end of the group initially ran behind everyone and was at the right end when the camera got there, so he appears at both ends of the photo. (Either that or he had a twin brother wearing the same clothes and my father was kidding me.)

Opinions?

Just how old are you chick?
When I was at school in the '80s it was still common to have school photographs taken in this way. I'm not sure about the exact method used, but it was certainly possible for someone to appear more than once in the photograph.

We had a montage style poster at my school because we had a better art department, but the slightly more staid boys school that some of my friends attended still had the formal rows of faces. The school discouraged running round the back to appear twice with a set penalty of a weeks suspension (which also applied to anyone assisting them). Funnily enough, it had the opposite effect and at least one boy a year attempted it.
