A detail I should probably have clarified concerning the pics. Make sure your pictures are HQ, meaning pictures of good size and resolution

Let's do it just legs. Should lead to some interesting results. I'll be sending you the pictures I've got so far.

Okay, after thinking it through the night, let's do it that way about the pics. At least whenever it's possible. LITTLE UPDATE ABOUT THE PICTURES: - I'll need 3 pictures for each model: if possible one standing, one sitting, and one laying down. So 2 verticals and 1 horizontal as before with just this one extra requirement.

I like the idea but it might make it difficult for finding pictures maybe? @peroxideblonde sent me yesterday a template sample that I liked And actually the sample had 3 pictures: standing, sitting and laying down.

^ So, so beautiful

I really don't think his opponents are "way worse" than he is. Just as bad? Maybe? But this guy is a true danger to democracy (or hopefully "was" from now on) with the way he carries himself and does politics. Then again, bout his opponents, I'm merely seeing this from the outside Are there parallels to him on the far left? Sure there are. We have some here actually, which I'm getting increasingly concerned about. And we also have parallels to him on the far right. And right wing politicians lie, like all of them. Yet Trump is specially effective at this and has lied and keeps on lying even more than your average politician. And he doesn't hesitate on backing any wild conspiracy theory as long as it benefits him. I'm not talking about what the media says about him here. It's just about reading his Twitter. The guy has backed anti-vaxers in the past to please part of his base and posted some wild lies about abortion on his Twitter not so long ago. Him constantly calling climate change a "hoax" is another. And it's exactly what he's doing! That kind of ideology -us vs them- is what he promotes. What he thrives on. If not... why keep on holding rallies for his base, as if was still in campaign? This doesn't mean that on the other side it doesn't happen. He has Fox News backing basically everything he does. And that's a HUGE media conglomerate. And there's Breitbart and others that strongly back him. He does have media behind him. He is, though, in part a co-creation of the media. Both of those who are against him and those who are with him. And they created a monster that never should have reached power. I'll refer to this: I haven't said that the US with Trump on power is an authoritarian regime. Because it's not. Because, thankfully, it still has strong enough institutions and structures to prevent people like Trump to turn it into it. But Trump does behave like an authoritarian and has plenty of the traits those "leaders" have. The US is not an authoritarian regime so it obviously has free press. Which Trump constantly attacks when it doesn't agree with him, as many authoritarians have done on their way to power. Same with the defeat. A defeat that can happen because it's not an authoritarian regime, yet he refuses to accept it. And he has plainly said in the past (well, and now too), in one of his many rallies, that he wasn't going to recoginze the results in the case of losing. That sounds very authoritarian-like to me. Oh the system, with its Electoral College is archaic to say the least. And of course it's no particularly against him... last time he became president after losing by 3 million votes. But that's another story. But this, how that system works, was not my point. It's about him placing doubts on the legitimacy of the system months in advance to now yell about fraud when he noticed he was losing. Without presenting proof (as in everything he does). How curious he hasn't yelled about fraud or "STOP THE COUNTING" on the states he won, or that he didn't mention possible frauds when he won 4 years ago. Yet his account is there. Still active. You can read all his tweets. Any "censorship" has been recent and long after he took advantage of the platform. So let's not put him as the poor victim of big tech here. He has been greatly benefited by how social media platforms work. Which is among the few positive things I can say of his presidency. Yet he did start a "war". His commercial war on China that in the end benefited no one except maybe China... That doesn't take away his belligerent attitude and dividing character. Neither does that someone on the other side may be doing a similar thing. I mean, it's what he does all day long on Twitter.
