Yeah I felt bad about it, but it has been building for a while. The subtle hints plus Hexx just don't seem to be getting through. It is one thing about the "game" advice, but the moralizing really ticks me off. I am still not completely convinced he ain't someones alter. It is just hard to believe it all at times.

I'm going to say this "for the record"...

When I first saw the new Klink sig, I saw no problem with it.  Then again, I'm partially colorblind (shades all blend to me...), and I thought her vest was covering all points of importance...

Upon further review of her sig, I did notice that it has a slight "wardrobe malfunction".  Unfortunately, in the USA, that is still considered illegal. :( :police:  Look at the uproar created by a similiar issue with Ms. Janet Jackson...

Now, was this something intentional, or a hacker who edited it in to try and get someone in trouble with the US "age checking" authority (you know, those people that need to make sure material restricted to the under-18 crowd is properly locked up...) doesn't concern me.  Though with it's malfunction, I can understand why it would need to be removed.

If the versions that have the vest pulled a bit tighter are legal, let's see that one adopted and put back into use.  Perhaps Tracey would be convinced into making a version where the vest is closed over enough of the abdomen to help insure that there are no more "wardrobe malfunctions", but still carry the design the original one did...

You know, people who don't like what they see here don't have to come here. This is not Taldren anymore and there is no company image to be kept up here. As long as it isn't totally lewd, gross or OTT in some other way I couldn't care less what pics people post. In your profile, there is a setting to turn off signatures and images for you if you don't like what you see. This allows you to have your preferences while allowing others to enjoy theirs. And yes, I am talking to the same group of people who can't seem to physically change the channel when something they don't like comes on TV.   ::)

Not to be a killjoy, since there are many things I'd rather do than stop the fun (like join in the bashing).... but something tells me this is getting close to.... uhhhmmm....  I forget what it's called but it ain't good.


Well, y'all are ripping on him pretty bad, I'd hate to be on the recieving end of it (but then I also wouldn't start it either).


Just something to think about

Ya know I was just rereading this and I thought of something...

Why does no one ever jump to MY defense when I'm getting bashed on?
Personally I think Age has it easy....

Here ya go Tracey.

I went over and, ahem, 'adjusted' your vest... Pulled it a little tighter there, I doubt it will stay. ;) Use this one, just as good.




Actually, Dizzy, that's a pretty good job of photo editing.  Nicely done!

And it's still an "attentinon-getting" drawing.

Bah..... freedom of expression squashed by the conservative right.

But what exactly was Tracey trying to express?

LeRoy, if you don't know the answer to that question, you really need to get out of the house more often. Kids today!

Because censorship of any kind is wrong. As a red blood American I thought you would have understood that. Yes "pornography" should be hidden from children, but nudity is not necessarily "pornography". Well maybe in the bible belt, but not the rest of the civilized world.

I think its pathetic. If these people are so sensitive and thin skinned perhaps they ought to go to some Christan web site,and not here.

 Who the hell are these people the freaking Taliban? They are using the same tactics. ::) ::) ::) So now we are ruled by a theocracy?

 So now the whole board has to cave in every time they whine and complain? 2 people don't make the majority, if they do not like it THEY can leave.

 Censorship sucks. And people with a mind set like that suck even worse. :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown:

Censoship by tyhe government is wrong.  It is in the rights of any individual to censor their own private property.

The Government didn't tell Tracey to hide the nipples, Frey is totally within his right to ask her to remove the picture on HIS property.  Just as he was correct in banning me for flaming the STD people.

CENSORSHIP SUCKS!!!!

On a serious note, I respect Tracey's decision, but I probably wouldn't have caved.  There was nothing wrong with that pic and whoever didn't like it is certainly welcome to ignore it any time they please.

LOL!  You know, I'd completely forgotten that option existed.  Good point!  You need never see a sig pic if you don't want to.
