This is the only official photo from the Lotusphere Opening General Session, downloaded here. Is being blind a requirement?

Looks like they wanted to let them appear taller than they are in reality.

This must have been a Friday afternoon 'can't really be arsed' job.

Pretty bad.

According to the date, it was a Thursday job, three days after the session.

Schon Obelix wusste: Streifen machen schlank.

Wow they really do put an effort in trying to look incompetent... Seriously, how can they screw up the images like that.

Well, it was Thursday morning. Who knows, it could have looked normal after Wednesday night with a few drinks and some coasters and rides.

It did make me chuckle though.

Man braucht nur einen Beamer mit einer anamorphen Optik. Perfekt.

Oh, man, you just couldn't make this stuff up.

...and actually, as the only photo, why wouldn't you have purely IBM/Lotus people in it? RIM again? I thought the semi-advertising plug being the first demo in the OGS as bizzare at the time and up they pop again.

Well, s*** happens. But what's realy strange is that it is STILL there. Fixing this would take 5 min if someone really cared about it.

However, may be this is exactly what it proofs. At IBM they don't care about it anymore. The whole Lotus thing is just a show they perform as long they are getting paid for.

@ sascha: Obelix ist "tout juste un peu enveloppé" ;-)

Fixed.

Yes, for one photo. Check the rest, they are still skewed.
