>>>"I just posted my opinion, I never claimed to be an expert."

I think your statements were a bit stronger than that:

>>>"That's the same person.....The nose simply looks a little different due to angle the photo was taken. Look in his ears to see it's almost certainly the same guy. The inner ear ridges are the same......the same guy, just more "aged" in the right photo"

You didn't just say you think he "looks like" Radbourne - you were persistent in making very specific "expert-like" arguments that were ludicrous - your opinion should be very strongly challenged. What really "set me off" on you is that your line of reasoning and style of language very much mimics what I have seen in fraudulent descriptions for photos selling for high prices (by both sellers and buyers trying to justify their purchase).

Perhaps jumping on your case personally that way was not very tactful (sorry) - but I'm really more concerned about people spending $3000 for $300 photos. It is better when Net54 helps to prevent this, which it often does. Somebody somewhere in the past had already spent way too much on that photo.
