I thought the watermark thing might detract from my pics but that doesn't seem to be the case at all! The only ones who have mentioned it in PMs seem to be those who read about it in my last blog post. Thanks, y'all...for being so understanding! I've even heard from some new guys who hadn't seen my pics until I posted the new ones, so it's all good...

I'm wondering if I need to change the watermark a bit. All I'm trying to say with it is that I'm FatGirl69 on the NewbieNudes.com website but I had one guy that was treating it like an email address and couldn't understand why his emails kept bouncing back to him. I put spaces on each side of the "@" sign on purpose to try to show that it's NOT an email address. I guess I could use "on" instead of "@"...what do you think?

Some of you may have noticed that all my still pics have been removed though I am slowly reposting some of them with a watermark. There's a reason for that. Earlier this month I received a PM from a very kind fellow NN member letting me know that she'd seen some of my pics posted on yafro.com. I looked at the offending person's profile and sure enough...they had posted 3 pages of my pics. There were a few pics of a man, woman, and child (all clothed), which I'm sure were stolen as well. The person had responded to others' comments as if it were the person in the pics(ME) talking. What a crock! I was pretty pissed off at first about having been violated in such a way. I've calmed down now, but I'm still hurt by it. The pics were definitely stolen from NN. That means the sick son-of-a-bitch may still be lurking here and may do it again, so watch your backs. This is just one more reason why I think it's best not to post face pics online...once you post them it's out of your hands where the pics will eventually end up.

I know there's been a lot of discussion on this subject and I don't know what the answer is, but I do wish there were some way to block people from downloading or being able to cut/paste pics from the internet. After all, the people who post here put in a lot of hard work thinking up pic ideas and going to the trouble of taking the pics, downloading them to the computer, uploading them to the website. The people who are too lazy or too ashamed to take their own pics and instead choose to STEAL pics from those of us who actually have the guts to show the world what we've got and set ourselves up for possible criticism are lower than low. [Note: I'm not referring to those of you who are too shy to post pics and just want to look at our pics and maybe post a nice comment or send a PM.]

I emailed the administrators to yafro and sent them a link to my NN pics. I asked them to please look at my pics in an effort to prove that the asshole who'd posted the pics on their site did in fact steal my pics from NN. That was 9 days ago. I think they've had ample time to look if they were going to, but I don't think they care. After all, I haven't heard a word from them and my are still there. From what I've seen, yafro is a site where the great majority of pics are stolen web pics. If they banned that kind of practice they would lose most of their members.

For those of you who liked looking at my pics without a watermark I apologize, but from now on I won't be posting any pics here without it. No, it won't stop the people who are dead set on stealing my pics and reposting them elsewhere. However, it's the best deterrent I can think of short of not posting the pics at all. If I stop posting altogether, I'm letting the bastard win...and I'm not about to do that.

Read of a man who stood to speak
At the funeral of a friend.
He referred to the dates on the tombstone,
From the beginning...to the end.
He noted that first came the date of birth
And spoke the following date with tears,
But he said what mattered most of all
Was the dash between those years.
(1934 - 199
For that dash represents all the time
That was spent alive on earth...
And now only those who loved that person
Know what that little line is worth.
For it matters not, how much we own;
The cars...the house...the cash...
What matters is how we live and love
And how we spend our dash.
So think about this long and hard
Are there things you'd like to change?
For you never know how much time is left,
That can still be rearranged.
If we could just slow down enough
To consider what's true and real,
And always try to understand
The way other people feel.
And be less quick to anger,
And show appreciation more
And love the people in our lives
Like we've never loved before.
If we treat each other with respect,
And more often wear a smile...
Remembering that this special dash
Might only last a little while.
So, when your eulogy's being read
With your life's actions to rehash
Would you be proud of the things they say
About how you spent your dash?

Life at the Nursing Home

Ethel was a bit of a demon in her wheelchair, and loved to charge around the nursing home, taking corners on one wheel and getting up to maximum speed on the long corridors. Because the poor woman was one sandwich short of a picnic the other residents tolerated her and some of them actually joined in.

One day Ethel was speeding up one corridor when a door opened and Kooky Clarence stepped out with his arm outstretched. "STOP!," he shouted in a firm voice. "Have you got a license for that thing?" Ethel fished around in
her handbag and pulled out a Kit Kat wrapper and held it up to him. "OK" he said, and away Ethel sped down the hall.

As she took the corner near the TV lounge on one wheel, Weird Harold popped out in front of her and shouted "STOP! Have you got proof of insurance?" Ethel dug into her handbag, pulled out a drink coaster and held it up to him. Harold nodded and said, "On your way, Ma'am."

As Ethel neared the final corridor, Crazy Craig stepped out in front of her, butt-naked, and holding his penis in his hand. "Oh, good grief," yelled Ethel, "not that damn breathalyzer test again.!!!"

With regard to my previous blog...I've got a feeling if my pics ARE stolen and posted somewhere without my permission it will be on one of the revenge-type sites. I've seen one of them before and was trying to get back there again. However, when I typed in what I thought was the web address I came across a site of links to other sites and do you know what one of the sites was? It was a place where you can arrange to have a "fecalgram"...i.e., a box of poop, anonymously sent to one of your enemies and watch their reaction online. I've never heard of anything so immature and perverted! And yes, I know that most people would say that posting nude pics online is pretty perverted. However, I choose to post my pics and I don't force anyone to look at them. Sending a box of shit to someone when you know they're going to open it without knowing what's going to be inside...basically forcing it onto them...is just plain sick!

I'm both saddened and pissed off that good people on NN are having their experiences here ruined by some low-down, no-class ASSHOLES who STEAL pics from this site and post the pics as their own on other sites! What the fuck is that all about?! As cheap as digital cameras are today why can't the bastards buy their OWN cameras and take their OWN pics to post online??? I guess the answer is BECAUSE THEY'RE LOW-DOWN, NO-CLASS ASSHOLES! Hopefully NN and NN-J will someday (hopefully soon) figure out a way to stop them from stealing pics that don't belong to them.

To the GOOD PEOPLE of NN...I would like your help. There are a few places other than NN where I have pics posted. These are: Rate a BBW and several Yahoo groups. On Rate a BBW I'm under my old NN name...Sexy35205. I have two Yahoo IDs under which I post pics...bbw_on_display and nn_fatgirl69. If any of you see pics that you recognize as mine or think might be mine anywhere else online, PLEASE send me a PM or email and let me know. I would be ever so grateful for your help!

Hope everyone's having a good week. I really do need to get back go blogging a little more often. After all...I don't want you all to forget about me!

I'm going to try to do better about posting new pics, too. My latest one is a brand new one that I took last night. I had a friend write to me and ask me to stop putting myself down by calling myself fat. I appreciate those of you who have sent me PMs like that. The thing is, though, to me it's not a put-down. I know some BBW and SSBBW hate that word but to me it's just a word. Using it doesn't mean that I think any less of myself. I know I'm a really big girl and I'm not ashamed of it. In fact, the pics where I'm showing more of my "fat" have gotten a better response than the ones where I was trying to hide how big I really am. So in a way...I'm proud of it! I'll probably lose weight someday for health reasons (don't worry...right now I have no health problems...not even high blood pressure or diabetes), but as long as I'm this size I plan to use it to my full advantage to turn on all the BBW/SSBBW lovers out there!

...that I haven't been around more lately. I've just started a group just for men on another site and I've been busy trying to build my membership in it. During that time I've been somewhat neglecting NN. The few times I have checked in I've been rather disappointed that I hadn't received more PMs from my "friends" wondering where I was. Only one of them bothered to PM to be sure I was okay. Made me think I wasn't as appreciated here as I once thought. However, I have received some positive pic comments the past few days so I probably will post more pics soon. After all, this is the absolute best amateur pic-posting site on the entire worldwide web!

He did it! He did it!! He did it!!!

I was sent the following email by...you guessed it...a guy! It's written by a guy from obviously a guy's point of view. Keep that in mind as you read it (it's pretty funny)...

At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down. Finally, the guys' side of the story.
(I must admit, it's pretty good.)

We always hear "the rules"
From the female side.
Now here are the rules from the male side.
These are our rules!
Please note.. these are all numbered "1"
ON PURPOSE!

1. Men are NOT mind readers.

1. Learn to work the toilet seat.
You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down.
We need it up, you need it down.
You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

1. Sunday sports...it's like the full moon
or the changing of the tides.
Let it be.

1. Shopping is NOT a sport.
And no, we are never going to think of it that way.

1. Crying is blackmail.

1. Ask for what you want.
Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work!
Just say it!

1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do.
Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.

1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument.
In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.

1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.

1. If you think you're fat, you probably are.
Don't ask us.

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one .

1. You can either ask us to do something
Or tell us how you want it done.
Not both.
If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.

1. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.

1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.

1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings.
Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.

1. If it itches, it will be scratched.
We do that.

1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing", we will act like nothing's wrong.
We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.

1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear Is fine...really.

1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as baseball, the shotgun formation, or golf.

1. You have enough clothes.

1. You have too many shoes.

1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!

1. Thank you for reading this.
Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight...but did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.

Pass this to as many men as you can -
to give them a laugh.

Pass this to as many women as you can -
to give them a bigger laugh
