your confusion may stem from the fact that i mistook the original analogy. they were calling the shirt into question. my response was calling the model into question. my mistake should be clear if you read both posts carefully. i will elaborate just in case.
every photo on Facebook is user generated. an overwhelming majority of them are bad photos. Facebook is completely aware of this.
as such, it would be an irresponsible design choice for Facebook to create such a huge presence for those photos, like the design proposal does. likewise, it is irresponsible of the proposal author to only use high resolution stock photos of decent looking people for their design.
perhaps my original post was not crystal clear. in retrospect i maintain that it was a fine explanation, albeit terse- and out of context given my misinterpretation. regardless of my post's clarity, your response makes you sound like a dick.
You've descended to name calling, taking offense over people not realizing your "mistake should be clear".
I respectfully submit that had what you meant to say been so clear, or had you followed your own advice to "read both posts carefully", perhaps you wouldn't have made the mistake twice.
not offended by any realization or lack thereof. i conceded; my point was entirely backwards given my misinterpretation. but the parent reply didn't warrant an apologetic tone. snark begets snark. i don't think "your tone sounds dickish" is name calling. but you're right, uncalled for nonetheless.
