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.

Trying a new plugin…

So I’m experimenting with a “recent comments” list in the header of ModBlog right now… It’s not quite rendering like I want it to, but I guess I’ll focus on it tomorrow because I think my almost non-existant PHP experience will be sharper in the morning.

Thanks to breedthecancer for the photo. Tattoo outline by “Doc” Oct in NYC.

    The tattoo on her arm is so simple and beautiful, I wonder what it will look like if/when she gets it filled in? Her eyes are shocking. So pretty!

    WHAT is wrong with her eyelashes? Other than the spiders on her face, a very lovely gal.

    if you’re still working this out, is there any way you could do a “next” feature like on the old Modblog? it’s so much easier to be able to see all the comments per entry and then click “next” instead of having to go back and clicking on each individual entry.

    forgive me if this is already available and i just haven’t found it yet. 😉

    ^ i agree. for a group of people who are so vocally adamant about wanting modblog to feature “people of all shapes/sizes/etc”, its funny some of you would be pointing out such minute stereotypical “flaws”.

    it’s clearly an artistic photo; don’t get so concerned. haha. and just for the record, i think the emphasized eyelashes bring out her eyes even more.

    wow, she is just gorgeous. *stares* i have to agree with the above posters, i love the crooked jewellry, though i’ll admit that i never even noticed it until someone pointed it out.

    i don’t know how people can find flaws with this. who cares if she has fake eyelashes on? she has beautiful eyes, might as well emphasize them. god knows that if i had eyes like that i would do the same thing. 😉
