its not so much the photographs that i'm interested in - I wrote the articles to make them look like they were genuine parts of other sites. Its supoosed to be about the amount of trust we put in things like corporate logos and how the internet can be used to subvert this....

As for the asian girl, i think she should be second smile

Tom, this is pretty lame. If you are going to hoax something like bbc.co.uk, at least buy a spoof domain name that isn't so obvious.

bug, its not really meant to be particularly believable, especially to anyone with an idea about how the web works, i was really wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of any other sites that do similar things...
