Fan3 | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 10:46 am     I tried to find these web sites that they got pages from. but no luck can anyone post them here so I can copy address? Thanks |
Hamsterlady | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 11:22 am     Fan, I too can't find any of their sites that look like the ones that were on the paperboards. One of Ali's site www.alisonirwinonline.com has kinda of the same coloring but I can't find a page on that site that looks anything like what BB put on the boards. I wonder if BB 'made up' the sites that they put on paperboard for them??? |
Gen | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 11:24 am     I also tried, but couldn't find them either. Maybe they are made-up ones. I think it is funny that the two girls think that one of them is going to win the chat. Boy are they going to surprised when Rob wins it. |
Bonzacat | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 11:25 am     Interesting, Fan & Hamsterlady, I can't find them either. Nothing at all out there that look like the ones pictured. When the feed cam was zooming in on the boards in the LR, it appeared as if everything after the "www." was blurred in the address line. I kept looking to see if it was just my blurriness but could never make out the URL. It will be interesting to see if anyone actually finds these "websites"....... |
Fan3 | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:02 pm     They must be made up. I wouldn't put it pass BB. BB is proably surprized that there aren't a lot of sites this year, this should show (CBS) that this year the hg were boring |
Hamsterlady | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:26 pm     Has anybody else had any luck finding ANYTHING out about the websites BB put on their boards? In case someone wants to do more investigative work, here are the pics of the sites BB gave them:

Ark | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:29 pm     I can't find anything that matches the pics. I found one with the same background as the pic for Ali but I couldn't find that same page. I found a "Rob Rules" site but the background it totally different and it looks noting like the picture. |
Hamsterlady | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:35 pm     Funny that they said their sites looked really 'professional looking'. Jun said that their sites this year were MUCH BETTER than the HG's of last year because she checked them out. Yeah, it seems they were 'professional looking' this year for a reason. A BB/CBS reason. Imagine how upset they'll be that the sites they were shown aren't out there! ROFLMAO Edited to say: Can anybody figure out what browser was used in the pics above? It isn't Internet Explorer or Netscape. |
Kalekona | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:37 pm     could the be AOL? |
Kalekona | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:39 pm     hubby says netscape or maybe juno for the browser |
Hamsterlady | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:40 pm     I'm not on AOL so I don't know.... Anybody out there on AOL? Does the AOL built-in browser look like this now? |
Lostintheglades | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:42 pm     I tried also....could not find any websites for any of them that resembled these....I'm really begining to think that BB made them up. |
Miss_Wings | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:42 pm     The only one whose browser I could get a really good look at was Rob's. Looks like something for a mac. |
Bonzacat | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:42 pm     The browser is Apple's Safari, only runs on Mac. |
Hamsterlady | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:45 pm     Thanks Bonza! At least we now know that part's real....LOL |
Grannyg | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:45 pm     This kinda looks like Ali's............... Ali |
Zgoodgirl | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:48 pm     When they started talking about what was being said on the websites, some of the things that they said sounded like some quotes that I remember seeing here! It freaked me out so bad, I had to go looking for them. When Alison read that someone said that they liked her voice and is very distinctive like Demi Moore WAS posted here under the OMG, I Cannot Believe the Nerve of Alison thread by Helgapataki!!! And when she read about "You gotta give the girl credit. She does NOT give up. When she puts her mind to something she goes after it like a pitbull." That was posted here too in the Alison Fan thread by Wendo!!! What is up with that? Could it be possible that CBS cut and pasted quotes from various websites and made their own fake ones? |
Bonzacat | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:49 pm     Granny -- the color is right but the graphics are a totally different style at the Ali site. So far, the only thing that we can verify is the browser, as Hamsterlady said! I am convinced that the browser address line, which was pretty much readable during the feeds that showed closeups of the boards, was blurred. If I enlarge Hamsterlady's pic it is also blurred after the "www." |
Lostintheglades | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:51 pm     I think you may be onto something Zgoodgirl....I wouldn't put it past them. I'm still looking but I don't think those actual pages even exist. |
Hamsterlady | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:53 pm     ROFLMAO!!!! Ali just said "Someone worked hard on making our webpages. Do you know how awesome that is?" Jun then said "I thank whoever you are for making me such a beautiful webpage." Edited to say: Chances are looking like, there wasn't a real webpage made after all. It was all Photoshopped. LOL |
Lucymac | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:55 pm     Didn't they make up boards for them last year too? Didn't they make them similar to web sites out there but none of them were the actual web sites, rather a compilation from various sites? |
Zgoodgirl | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:56 pm     I looked too Lost, and can't find anything. The only websites that I have found are groups from like Yahoo and Geocities. They gave us so much information for us to easily search for them, and no one can seem to locate them. That kinda sucks if CBS did make fake ones, 'cause there are some out there, sure not as nice and clean as the ones that they saw, but there are true ones online, so why fake it? |
Zgoodgirl | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:59 pm     I do remember trying to look last years up too, and could never find them. But they should at least tell them that these are not true websites at all, but just a made format of various sites. Did anyone hear Jun mention JokersUpdate and ILoveReality? She totally missed the best one. Those aren't bad, but I would die without TVCH. Trying to remember what all was said on Robs and Juns site, I'm going post hunting.... |
Fan3 | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 01:59 pm     but last year their were lots of sites and Amy was real. her's is still there. |
Emdanzma | Saturday, September 13, 2003 - 02:05 pm     They must be a cut and paste of various websites. Otherwise they'd have to deal with getting permission from website owners to just use that one in particular, wouldn't they? They get more of a variety if they throw a bunch of stuff together. Also, no one can seem to find these exact setups. |
