You are talented, but you are such a cunt it is just untrue.

sp to make the flesh look distorted near where the metal meets the tit.

also a gradient effect of dropping down the hue might make it look more borg-like
and thus help the viewer suspend disbelief slightly more.

so greyer around the lens suggesting the skin is not getting the circulation and a plumping up of the skin around the lens.

my results in such things are not remarkable so try the other stuff first.

I'm not defending the image posted - it upsets me as well - but there are ways and means around it for those not wishing to see it.

I know this isn't my conversation and I do see both sides of the argument- I think because this is SUCH a graphic image that shows the suffering of a naked child from merely a few metres away it seems more harrowing and shocking to me than an image of a smoking building- that says more about my naivety than anyone else, but I thought I'd say my piece.

# Indeed, but - as you imply yourself - it comes down to personal opinion of an image
and if you don't like an image, there are things in place to hide and get rid of it.

It's an awful image - yet a well known one. TV, film, Book, Magazine, it's - dare I say it - an iconic image from a troubled time. In a challenge which asks for 'History' to be taken into account, it's fairly obvious given the vast membership of b3ta that there may be one or two 'less than desirable' aspects of history used for challenge entries, especially given the nature of b3ta itself.

It's not really up to the members to police b3ta on things like this, it's up to the individual to like it or lump it, and if they don't like it, there are ways around it to avoid having to see it. If something IS too much for the general consensus, or perhaps goes a little too far, then we have Mods.

# indeed they should, that's what makes b3ta great.
I was just thinking that, to the casual poster, (which I assume the poster of the image above is, along with many others) it doesn't really help them get a feel for b3ta, as in one breath people might say delete something, and then if they view the board later on and see a diff. thread deleted, suddenly that deleter will be called a c*nt.
They can't win.

# I have no idea, but it happens, and people who see the board can see what happens when a thread gets deleted.
So it doesn't really give them much to take on board if in one ear people are saying 'delete that you c*nt, and then later on when someone perhaps does delete something, maybe for something far less trivial, suddenly it's as if the 'offender' has personally come into our homes on christmas day and pissed on our turkey.

It doesn't matter to the casual observer if it's a 'weird' board nazi-ish thing to do, it happens anyway. It's surely easier for people to exercise control over what they see, as I said above. if they don't like it, hide/adblock it and don't comment, or at least if they do comment, make it constructive.

otherwise, this place just becomes an extended youtube comments section

# If it helps, there's no hard and fast rules...
It's just that some pictures put people off a lot more than others - this one in particular causes a bit of discomfort, whereas other things such as the twin towers are more of an abstract concept, thus more tolerated (though not completely). That said, there are certain WTC pictures that are also not guaranteed a welcome on here...

If you don't agree with that person's opinion, then the argument isn't really going to stand up very well in your eyes...

For what it's worth, my own stand point is that if anyone else is making a picture, I don't have a line to cross - everything's fair game (assuming there's no terrible event in my life I'd rather not be reminded of and it hits a raw nerve, but if that was the case, I'd avoid b3ta for a bit).

If I'm the one making the picture however, I'll take into account the way it might make other people feel, and think about the effect it might have before posting it.

# ^you've hit the nail on the head there.
some people make an image for the board as a whole, other make if for themselves, hoping someone else may find it funny.

If you're at a relative 'start' in posting on b3ta, it's often difficult to know where to begin. b3ta is well know for its 'outlandish' humour, so sometimes people jump in with both feet.

You've summed it up quite nicely there :)

# NOTE FROM AUTHOR
I was tempted to jump in last night and point out the screaming hypocrisy, but then plenty of other people did this for me and so I felt no need. Besides, I’m here to primarily comment on my actions, the ones I’m responsible for; not other peoples, for which I’m not.

But all the chat did actually make me wonder ‘what was I thinking? - a very pertinent question.

In the end reflected that the world is a terrible place, and one way to get through it all is with a smile on your face. So, in a way, trivialising a terrible scene is just a way for me to cope with it. A bit like alcoholism, drug-abuse, self-harm; black-humour is a milder way of coping with the horrors of life - and no less pretty to watch. If I spent all my time focusing on the obvious human misery out there, and trying to put myself in the shoes of, say someone strapped to a seat burning on a runway, I’d spend the whole day crying. So instead I poke fun.

The way I figured it, the more graphic the image, the more extant the process, and clearly this was a graphic image.

Something that did puzzle me though, a reoccurring theme of complaint was that ‘it is a naked girl in terror’; particularly those three things in combination. If she’d have been clothed would that have made it more acceptable? Maybe if it would have been a frightened middle aged man that would have been okay too? Or maybe it’s because the image was real – if I’d have used a still from a gritty film like ‘Come and see’, that would be alright too – because it is all make-believe like your amusing magenta willys?

No, it still wouldn’t ‘be okay’. I think the problem is that it displays a graphic, in-your-face image which makes you uncomfortable. You may make direct reference to other outrages, but, because they’re done at distance – like the twin towers, you don’t see the inherent detail and so you can sleep sound. The next time someone posts an image like that I suggest they look in the mirror and they ask themselves what is so funny about the depiction of human misery. Don’t look too close though – that way madness lies.

Oops, - I wasn’t going to mention the hypocrisy.

Anyway, I’ve said all I want to, right or wrong, like-it or lump-it, I won't be replying to any more messages. And I won’t be changing my id to Kevin Carter either…

Although that's VERY basic, and anyone with that sort of money usually knows ways to avoid paying so much tax, or indeed all at the same rate.
my guess is if it's gone this far, it's accumulated over the last 2- 3 years, which will bring the yearly earning down to about £500k or so - probably.
