I went to a web page created by a friend of Ginas, www.ginacrews.com. I was browsing through the photos section (page 2) and went to click on a thumbnail photo of gina sitting in the water. When it went to enlarge, the photo came up blurred and said over top of it that it was removed by cbs. Looking back at the thumbnail photo, it seems that she may have a buff around her arm of a different color than yellow. Maybe this a hoax and maybe it means that she makes the merge..or that she is one of the survivors that is 'switched' to the other tribe. Maybe this is a cbs owned photo?

I was going to get pissy for having to wade through too much crap to find what you were talking about, but persisted, nonetheless. . .

Yes, at first glance it does appear blue--but that isn't conclusive, because when you try to increase the size at this resolution, you get goofy blocks of color as things spread out to fill the space; I think it appears that the Survivor logo itself is where the color is coming from, not the buff background.

Could simply be that your friend has used photos without getting permission--I don't think this means anything, although at this point I can't get the SeeBS site to load at all, to compare.

This is the same photo that is available as a crop from the Entertainment Weekly site -- my guess is they asked it be removed, it's probably theirs.

If not, then I'd say rather than a legitimate request from CBS that this is more likely a publicty stunt by the webmaster of that site (who *IS NOT* a friend of Gina's but if I remember right is some college kid that every season runs around registering domains for all the attractive female survivors.)

Check out the below:

There is no doubt this is the same photo. There is also little doubt that Gina looks to be in pretty healthy shape -- no evidence of a single bug bite, etc. (unlike those that even SARAH already has in her EW.com photo.)

...therfore given the absence of bites, etc. I think it's safe to say there is no chance this is a post-merge image.

There's a similiar picture on EZBoard, but it's of Sarah playing with the laundry line. This is quite odd. But it does look blue to me, although dark blue.
