Pinup Icons

Last week I was introduced to a young woman by Gem when I stopped by her store to discuss our upcoming bondage night.  When this attractive woman was told I was Uncle M, she immediately took out her cell phone and pulled up one of my photos.  The photo was the cover shot of our Pinup Bondage book featuring Sisi and Helen in those gorgeous candy land outfits Sisi created.  I was pleasantly surprised to see our work being carried around on a cell phone (great word of mouth advertising) and I asked where she pinched the photo from.  Google was her reply.  Cool.

Now for those that are unaware, my webguy has activated a copyright script on my website that prevents visitors from doing the 'ol right click save as thing.  Apparently the script is easily defeated by those that know how but it does stop the majority of people from lifting the photos from the site.  A fan of our work has been sending me messages and emails, hounding me actually, on just how annoying and silly this type of software is.  From what I could tell he was pissed off and wanted me to deactivate the script.  Suffice to say the communication between the two of us was getting heated (this guy just would not go away) and I finally blasted him in one of my journals on another site.

Wouldn't you know it, I received a long and quite eloquent email from this fan in reply.  You have to admire this guy, one tenacious son of a gun.  Turns out he was just trying to help and had documentation to back him up.  The point he was trying to convey was let some of your art free, much like a flyer advertising a business or service.  Let people grab it and repost it.  Spread the word.

Alrighty then...two juicy photos that have become iconic for all you peeps to grab.  As for the script on my web site...I'm working on that and expect it to be turned off, at least on a trial basis very soon.
