No, that's just Cal's eBay listing. He's been using that picture for awhile. If you look at the bottom of that listing, there's an invitation to come to this site.
cal's a good guy and a good seller, I've actually bought glasses from him on Ebay. If you notice, below the aforementioned invitation is a "trademark" for the banner and Picture.
and how about that price for a Timebomb?
oh, and cal, the line "10 BAR Hydrophibic waterproof"? you should probably change that to waterproof to 10 atmospheres (1 bar=1 atm.). more people will understand that, I think.

i think this pic was longer ago than that, judging by the number of oakleys - we even used a couple fakes because we didn't have enough real ones to cover his head.
in fact, wasn't it on chris's birthday when he got the racing jackets and juliets? and barlow brought his, and you had splices and scars, and a couple fakes? and ben's nikes
yeah, big bloody rock. you do NOT want to know

No no, that was Oakley Head v1 in fall 2002, The pic on the main page was later on. Looking back, I think it was April 2003, rather than last april. Here's the rest of the pics:

The auction got yanked off the site because of...possible misuse of a picture. This time, It's Oakley. I was being stupid and used a photo logo. THEY ARE DEFINITELY WATCHING US. I have used the logo for months. Anyway the auction is back and revised. Brian thanks for all and I changed it to atmospheres.

no prob. I remember when I was getting into cars that it took a while to figure out what 1 Bar was a measure for. Turns out it's just a short way to say 1 Atmosphere of pressure.
I guess when you work in the middle of the night you can have a little freedom to check the forum and your auctions, huh?

hmm, they told you that oakley got it yanked? that's ridiculous, it's an oakley product
i was thinking maybe the auction got visited from this page so much, and that this page is titled "possible misuse of a picture", that some ebay system might have freaked and pulled it
