Spoofing website screen shots

posted in Found Blogs/Sites |

What can I say, this is amazing and great fun (if used in the proper way)

Load up any web-page, then go into the address bar at the top (where the http://www.example.com part is) and type in (well cut and paste) the following:

javascript:document.body.contentEditable=’true’; document.designMode=’on’; void 0

This will allow you to edit anything on the page, just like a text editor. It will do nothing permanent to the site obviously, but you can take screenshots with the amended text.

Thanks to HaRRo on the Pay-Per-Install Forum for this interesting information.

The original author suggests that this tool is used by less-than-scrupulous individuals to spoof their affiliate earnings, by simply editing the page, then taking a screenshot. We, on the other hand, are more interested in the fact that you can edit your mate’s site, then send him screenshots with it saying whatever you want. Or what about editing one of the main news reports to include someone you know’s details, then emailing it to them?

A really interesting find this one, and something you can spend a few hours playing with. Obviously, there is also a warning in there - don’t believe everything you read on the internet, as most things can be ‘tweaked’.

Simply because if you are the dreamertype, that is actually to lazy to do anything with the priceless information, it is far better to stay away from the Maverick Money Makers Club. Nothing occurs by itself, especially certainly not earning bucks online. It is nevertheless rather different if you actually are the sort that will take action, there’s really a lot of very good information as well as good tools inside of the associates community that you could take advantage of each time you need to generate income online.

Hi,
I’ve been doing a lot of research online lately regarding online promotion and SEO since I just opened up an Thai online shop with a couple of friends of mine.
The information offered on your site would be of great value to GetSiam visitors, and I believe, your visitors would find great value in our site. Because our two websites are complementary rather than competitive, I see synergy here as an opportunity for our mutual benefit and I’d really love to exchange links with your website. Have a look at our website if you want, we put a lot of work and effort into it and are dedicated to improve it constantly.
We receive a lot of hits already (contact me for visitor stats) and I think both our sites can benefit from one another.
Anyway, just thought I’d share my thoughts with you - keep up the good work buddy and contact me if interested!
