I remember when I first saw these pics. During the WW2OL beta, CRS was posting new development pics to their site. Well, there was a fan site that was using direct links to the CRS site images for its own site. So whenever someone visited the fan site, the CRS server would get hit as it served up the images.
So someone at CRS changed their site to use different images, and then they took a pic of these white boy freaks and put it on their server with the same file name as the previous development pics. So the next time someone visited that fan site, they saw a pic of these 3 idiots instead of some new WW2OL aircraft. It was hillarious.
