Yes, the pixels are there...though they may be tough to see due to the lack of contrast and the monochrome field.

By the way, do you have photographs of your abstract expressionist art? Or do you have abstract expressionist photos? I'll go check your profile.


David I do have some photos of my art but not on dpchallenge.

In reading this again, I realize it completely contradicts the whole reason for my original post. :/

So I am now switching sides and defending the right to post whatever cra- ...um, I mean "art" you want to, but by the same token, I will defend the rights of anyone to vote any score they want for any image for any reason. ...Did I just become an anarchist?

I give up, people. Do what you want. I've got a bowl of yellow Wheaties waiting on the table for me. :P

I thought I made that clear - or at least a murky, medically-abnormal yellow color...

:P

Now ya got it! The picture was doomed, and Charlie knew it. He posted it anyway because he wanted to make a "statement". Some of us appreciated the statement, and he got a few high scores. A lot of us hated the statement and he got a TON of 1's. Exactly as it should be, probably. Nobody needs "punishing" here, least of all those of us who were, in fact, amused and showed it with our scores.

I went the same route with my "self portrait as raindrop", paid the same price, and would do it all over again given the option.

Welcome to the world of the temperate onlooker!
