Weird Eyes story hits the front page in 01:32:20 but gets buried in 10 mins

The weird eyes story hit the front page in 1 hour 32 minutes with 63 diggs total, 54 of them from friends and 7 comments. This was the first time i submitted an image as a story on digg, I showed the image to few of my friends, some of them found it weird, others said it was cool but everybody agreed it was digg material, so i went ahead and submitted the image. The image as it turned out was very old which could be confirmed from the harsh comments the story received once it hit the front page. http://www.ajaxonomy.com/buryrecorder/ showed 8 buries in matter of minutes, 4 of them were with in 1 minute. Served me right, lesson learnt, I will never submit an image to digg without knowing its source and age.
