Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines.

"Photo Essay background"
All right, last post for today. I'm not *that* desperate for attention.

On the CBS site

http://www.cbsnews.com/sections/earlyshow/main500202.shtml

there is a "photo essay" in which all the Survivors are introduced. There is one small detail which caught my attention. While 15 of the Survivors have a "normal" photo, with assorted jungle background, Erin's photo only has a white background.

This could be either:

a) a clue that Erin wins it all (yeah right. Burnett giving clues to spoilers!?! )

b) an indication that she is eliminated early (basically preventing the production cast to get a decent shot at her face and forcing them to take a photo in a studio). After all, in S2's credit they had to use a few photographs instead of video footage for this reason (Kel springs to mind)

c) a red herring for people who have too much time on their hands and a need for attention (if it is, it worked )

Thoughts?

I originally thought that it might be a clue, but after looking at other cast pics, she was just laying on the beach in her pic, and the sand is really light colored:

...and, if you look at the larger versions of the other pictures (which are pre-game publicity shots, presumably), many of the others were taken on the beach as well, but the sand wasn't visible near their faces, so it doesn't appear in the cropped headshots.

Ya, they do these photos every season -- I believe that normally they are taken in an area somewhere near the local hotel that they stay in before the game starts.

Also, there are 3 of 16 players, whos' blow up photo (when you click on the thumbnail) is not the same as the thumbnail photo, at the cbs.com site. (Penny-Jan-Clay). It also probably means nothing, you never know, and I'm bored.

Looking closer, I'd say that these three players' photos aren't really different, when you click on the thumbnails. Rather, they are reversed (yes, I'm bored, too). Furthermore, comparing these photos to the "photo essay" photos on the CBS site, nine of them are different photos altogether. Ghandia, Helen, Shii Ann, Stephanie, Clay, Jake and Ted all have the same photo used on both this bio page and the photo essay page. And some of these have been reversed. All in all, great fun for us analyzers, but whether or not there is any significance? We may never know. But at least I'm not bored anymore...
