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.

The Streets Are Alive..

    also not liking this new layout. i like seeing the photos, and if i’m interested in what someone has to say about them, then reading. this whole ‘click to see what you might not want to look at anyway’ thing isn’t working for me. before, the content was redundant… now i have to click to see if it’s redundant? no thanks.
    and, #4, comments on the blog are on topic because we are looking AT the blog.

    Why don’t we see more modified black people outside africa? I mean, it’s hawt as hell, has it something to do with people not wanting to get racist comments about lip-plate tribes etc? Can’t really figure it out, more sexy modified black people 🙂

We don’t want to see pretty T’n’A or C’n’B! We want to see the work and the work alone! blah blah blah blah blah blah blah *end mono toned voice*

    😉 yes I’m tonging your cheek, you know you like it ;P

    As for the picture its really well done, I like the contrasting colors and the blue eyes really pop out at ya.

    I agree with several others, I prefer the old layout of seeing multiple posts on the page, all with the main image and lead in there with no clicking.

    Here there’s only the one entry (at least as of 10:20 PM CDT) and I have to click to see it, not so good.

    If there was a “click here and get basically the old list of posts style layout” for the old “modblog” type entries feed (separate from the rest of the news on this page, which is fine) that’d be awesome.

    Oh wait… I see clicking on “MODBLOG” in grey there just above this post does that, as “archives.”

    So… I think I’m okay with things, then.

    Sade: I processed a few more images today of sexy women of color so those should start to be up in regular ModBlog rotation soon.
    Note to Sexy Women of Color! Send in more photos! please… Sexy Men of color too! We do not discriminate unless you don’t have any visible mods in the photograph of course. If you want to see more, send in more and we will have more to post, hell you might even get your own 15 minutes of ModBlog Fame!

    is it wrong to disagree with everyone and say there should be less, if any blacks on modblog?
    maybe it is best to be a stereotypical mod person on these issues.
