And now, i need to find a other classification system for my own photo's :X
I do keep all my 'raw' photo's with their camera derived numbers, but for the ones I deem 'quality' shots (that I would share with other people), they typically get renamed with something a bit more descriptive.  If I was in the 'business' of writing to several dozen potential suckers (uh, I meant suitors) I probably would not have the time to rename my archive (besides, makes searching Google images that much more difficult).

It was for joke... in reality, for all my own photo's, i use the date and a sequential number for the file name... but i use intern tag too, with a title, description, keyword, and several other info... the only problem, it is that these tag dissappear with several cheap graphic programme... in my case, i use a full Abdode suite ( with photoshop )... but the expense for program was more high that these for computer :?...

Now, when i was searching a wife, several woman have send me photo with name in russian ( koi 8 )... with the font installed on the computer, i was able to read the name... but when i save it, is have only something like ?????.jpg , and other program refuse to open it... i was obligate to rename it...

Each rules from the Kvinna list are not a proof of scam... and somes are really ridicul... but if your ladies show ALL these rules, maybe you can be suspicious...

By example, for mobile phone, i exchange with Galina SMS each day... i was worry for her expense... myself, i pay 0.48 euro for a SMS to ukraine... but she have explain me that it is very cheap for her... around 2$ month for a SMS each day... mobile phone in ukraine are not really expensive until they don't pay for incoming phone call... just one time pay for the phone and activation... and they have cheap second hand mobile... so i think that it is more cheap to have a mobile that a fix ligne, certainly when you live not in big city... so, the rule about mobile phone can be cancel in the list...

in fact I selected only most ridiculous patterns, but what I really have understood She is a scammer because she is alive

Kvinna, this morning I had enough coffee and can plainly see that you meant that after you check this entire list, there will be NO WOMEN who pass the test. Ha. I get it. :D Doug

 

and what do you think there is some man who pass this test?
When they came for the trade unionists, I did not speak out; I was not a trade unionist. When they came for the Jews, I didnt speak up, because I wasn't a Jew. When they came for me, there was no one left to speak out.

I was thinking in terms of finding a wife, but I guess it goes both ways.
No HUMAN can pass that test.  I recently sent Larisa $100 for her train fare and that involved using Western Union. She seemed VERY familiar with the process.  (Wink wink.) I was afraid that once I sent the control number for getting the money, I might never hear from her again. These last four days of waiting seemed like two weeks. Today I finally received her email thanking me for the money AND I received her postal letter including her phone number!!!  I was waiting forever for that too. This means independence from the AGENCY!  Yippee!!!
Doug, optimistic again

Doug,

Now, you can phone her each evening and say her : "Spokoynoy nochi"

She will be very happy.... of if phone is a mobile, you can send her each day a SMS ( short message )...

Despite the negative comments, I found the list very exhaustive and complete.  Yes, almost all women will meet at least one or two of the points, but what one is looking for is a pattern.  This list represents a good check off list and could potentially be very helpful for a newbie.

·  He sends a new photo with every letter
·  Each new photo is number sequentially (1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, etc.)

·  He sends his naked photos
·  The names of his photos are numbered above "10" (e.g. "015.jpg", "025.jpg")
·  He doesn't have simple snapshots taken around his home or with his friends, family or pet
·  Photos in his profile and those pictures he sent to you don't look like the same person
·  He refuses to give you his address
·  He always has the problems with his home phone and and he can give you only his cell phone number
·  He refuses to give you his phone number even after repeated request
·  He uses a free e-mail service (hotmail, yahoo and so on)
·  His photo or name is listed as a known or suspected scammer on antidate sites

·  If you meet, he requests you both stay at one room or insists on having sex
·  If you meet, he has limited or infrequent time available to spend with you

Bravo, Kvinna. I have had the experience with dating-sites. This list of male scam patterns is very useful.... If I could read it before I was a member of dating-site. :shock: I wouldn't waste my time then.
I am not looking for absolution. Forgiveness for the things I do. But before you come to any conclusions - try walking in my shoes.

You are joking :( But this problem is very serious, by the way.

What would the cyrillic version of
'Metallurgov' be?   Doug

Металлургов ( prospect - проспект)

(though I don't know how "accurate" the data base presented in the Net may be.

If it would be Moscow I'd can help you better coz here we do have CDs with rather full phone data base on our "black market":D)
