How the Discovery Institute sees things:
Made this during my lunch break with nothing but low quality images and MS paint (God, I wish I had Photoshop!) If I were more talented, and had more time, and better software, I might have made a better one
Anyway, My apologies to PZ Meyers for puting him in a NAZI hat (although from what I hear about Expelled, they do the same thing...)

On a related matter, here's DaveScot's laughable definition of RSVP. Dawkins, Myers, and what R.S.V.P. means
DaveScot
R.S.V.P. is an abbreviation for the French “répondez s'il vous plaît” which means “please respond” and traditionally is appended on invitations so that the host knows who and how many guests to expect.
Richard Dawkins and PZ Myers are running around saying they weren't “gate crashers” at a pre-screening of “Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed”. But that's exactly what they were. PZ Myers claims he went through the same process to get a reservation for himself and a number of guests as all the other guests by going here
Expelled - RSVP System
The sticking point is that Myers was never invited. Myers RSVP'd to an invitation he never received. He fooled the host by gaming the invitation/response system employed. The host wasn't checking RSVPs against a list of invitations sent out but rather just assumed that any RSVP received was in response to an invitation sent out. One could possibly say this was due to Myers' ignorance of what RSVP means but he seems to be “As Smart as a 5th Grader” so that's not a credible excuse. The only other alternative is Myers' purposely and knowingly deceived the host which of course means Myers is dishonest. THAT is credible.

Someone is lying and I'd bet that it wasn't PZ. History tells us that apologetics and outright lying is what the DI does best, does it not?
Read on, it gets funnier.

GIMP is great, and certainly my image editor of choice. Not only coz it's FOSS, but also because it's cross-platform.
For those that are Windows users, and looking for something a little simpler and more intuitive, try paint .net. It's also free.
