Eric, All -
When posting links here, it would be helpful if you could let us
know if the content is "Safe For Work". I realize that what you
posted is art, but I happened to open it at work on brief lunch
break. Had one of our HR folks walked by, I'd have probably gotten
a rather stern talking to (at least!). The current corporate
culture is VERY sensitive to anything of this nature.
So, I would ask that when posting links like this, you folks
kindly mention it as "NSFW" (Not Safe For Work), so I can
remain employed and continue to buy film, paper, and chemistry.
I emphasize that I did not find the image objectionable in any way
(other than that you did it digitially :) but there are sensitivities
other than mine to consider ...
Now, back to your thread already in progress...
