A salute picture is a verification method used by many social websites such as MySpace and forums.
If required to submit a salute picture most guidelines include the following: Picture taken of self clearly showing face, must be holding a hand-written message on a piece of paper that says your username of the website as well as the website name, also there must be no edits of any kind on the image. Most sites run a program that un-flatten and strip the picture of any edits.
The websites use this for verification of some kind. It could be the administration might suspect your account to be fake or an impostor of somebody else. This could call for a salute to be sent.
Famous quotes containing the words salute and/or picture:
“we salute you
season of no bungling”
—Charles Olson (1910–1970)
“It’s no go the picture palace, it’s no go the stadium,
It’s no go the country cot with a pot of pink geraniums.
It’s no go the Government grants, it’s no go the elections,
Sit on your arse for fifty years and hang your hat on a pension.”
—Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)
