I just thought a little Monday morning humor was in order. :mrgreen:

NSA is no worry for me. With the new change in CHL laws, that goes away as of September 1. :mrgreen:

Wrong: actually that is MY IP address. More correctly, it's the IP address of whomever happens to be looking at the picture......as well as the browser and operating system.

It may or may not be the IP address of whomever happens to be looking at the picture. In my case, it is the address of the proxy that I go through. The browser is also just a best guess. In my case, it is close but not entirely correct.

I tested it with both Chrome and Safari, and it was right on, and it displayed my operating system accurately. The IP displayed is my IP. I didn't bother testing with either Firefox or Opera.

When I look at it in IE 10, it says I'm using Mozilla/Netscape 5! :headscratch

That's gotta be IE 10's fault. :smilelol5:

Ok I am impressed, how is such a thing done? Switched browsers and it picked it up right away.

It's neither magic nor rocket science. :)

When you put a picture in a message, you are actually putting a link to a website where the picture lives. In this case, that website handles the request for the picture by building a picture on the fly using the information that your browser sends along with every request. This is a slight oversimplification of what happens, but not by much.
