A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

BMEgirls Contest

Hey, I just wanted to mention again the be the next BMEgirl contest. You can actually see more in the BME encyclopedia we’re all been working on. Anyway, it’s going really well, and I think I’m going to do a series of twelve and release one a month along with matching stickers! I wanted to mention that if you want to be in the running to be the number one shirt you have to get your shoot up within two weeks. But later submissions are fine, because they’re still in the running for later ones.

I wanted to emphasize that all people of all shapes and sizes should enter. The key to the photo is it should be something that’s “pinup-y” in style that I can turn into a cartoon, so pose and framing (it should be full body) is important. And if you don’t have a lot of mods, tell me what you’d like to have and I can add it too! Mostly I’m just looking to feature interesting, fun people from this community.

And please pass this on to anyone you think would be good!
