Folks

Before we continue, I have just discovered a flaw in this quiz. If you right click on the photo and press properties it usually tells you the source and thus name of the person, although not on the last one, so it was much harder than the rest!

Is there a way of removing it, or am I treating this too seriously?

What you could do is save it to your computer and rename it. Then upload it here: http://imageshack.us/
