One of the master gardeners that I work with has an interest in pottery. I told her that I needed to show her a picture of my garden witch that I created in my first and only class in clay sculpture.
So, I took a picture of it and sent it to her by e-mail. My witch is a nude lady.
She couldn't get it; so, I took a print of it to a meeting that she was at yesterday.
I passed it around the table to her past 2 others.
She saw it and exclaimed, "That's terrible!"
The lady ex-marine next to her said, "You're going to get arrested!"
Vicki showed up and didn't have any problem with it.
Anyone else experienced stupid replies to nude artwork?
I do have a pic of it from digital camera. Don't know how to post it here.
Think the comments were about the nudity. However, the sculpture is probably pretty awful, too. Not crude, just a full frontal female nude figureine with some rather awful head hair, but a little roughly done. I'm new at it.
Boyd may not have the bandwith or storage capacity to handle posting graphics.
In the old days, we used to post them as binaries on USENET. You could basically open a bitmap, gif or jpg in notepad and paste the contents into the body of a post or as an attachment. Then, those who wish to view your picture could simply reverse the process, saving the text with the appropriate file extension.
One word of caution, even posting the source code of pics takes up lots of space, so Boyd would probably nix that as well.
The best way to do it is to load your photo up to a page you create on the web, or a Yahoo (or other provider) picture storage and sharing area and create a hyperlink to it like you do to other sites. That way the band width won't be on this server, but only a link to your picture.
