[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother and I have taken similar pictures with my grandmother.  I am so thankful that my SIL (and my brother, for that matter) isn't a neurotic mess like the posters on this board.[/quote]

Seriously, I'm struggling here with this kind of response.  Are you really incapable of understanding the point here? Here are the issues: 
1.) OP showed favoritism to the other grandchild was before this picture was taken.
2.) DIL clearly expressed this (even if it was in a passive/agressive manner) before the generations picture.
3.) OP couldn't understand why feelings were hurt due to the picture. Sure, as a one-time event it would be silly to have hurt feelings.  But, from the OPs original post, it seems clear that the DIL doesn't consider this to be the first instance of showing favoritism. OP seems unwilling to acknowledge this.
4.) OP decides to respond in a completely snarky way to a DIL who was already feeling hurt.

So stop focusing on the fact that you wouldn't be hurt to be excluded like that.  It's not about the single event. It is about a (assumed, based on the meme) pattern of behavior that shows favoritism to one granddaughter over another.
