Wow my first rude and weird comment
Thursday, January 29, 2004 by kona0197 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Can a admin fix this please?
I don't know what this guy was trying to say but for a family site it is kind of innappropriate.

I have no idea what you guys are seeing in the Bootskin link at the top...but you have a very vivid imagination...I see what appears to be an out of focus dragon...phallic doesn't even come to mind...
Whoa!..OK...the comment for that skin is absolutely positively inappropriate for this or any other site...that clown should be banned from here completely!

Nothing to do with vivid imagination 
Your right it really is just a graphic of two dragons, I'm sure the suggestiveness of the image is purely unintentional. Advertising agencies on the other hand do it on purpose, you don't usually notice it, but it definitely sells products, Camel Cigarettes is the first to come to mind.
I prefer beer ads with chicks wrestling in a water fountain....that's my kind of ad, blatant and up front
Kona....I showed it to my wife, Psych, Human Behavior, Criminal Justice in college, she says that by just showing the two dragon heads and necks....it looks very much phallic, kind of like just showing the barrel of a gun. She suggested just using one dragon and showing more of its body to remove the symbolism. She also found the colors suggestive too, but I don't see that.
BTW seriously....nice job on your first bootskin....I haven't even come close to creating anything worthy of submitting yet

Good Lord....your wife needs to see a shrink.....if that image suggests anything beyond poorly drawn dragons in red.

Essencay..
I think I may be getting a little jaded
I don't see anything phallic at all in that...
it's actually quite a nice bootskin, considering the limitations this version of the proggy has, and also considering it's one of Kona's first.
w.d. Kona

thanks guys for the praise but really all i did was ask the author of the red dragon skin to turn the walls that come with the msstyles into bootskins.
And then i let digital chet help me do them. basically he did all the work although i know how.

yes Kona it is very well done...
As far as the wife of the person who left that comment goes. She made comment to her husband and he made the choice in making it public. I won't go into it, but she either needs to finish school and take some advanced courses or she needs to stop teaching that class and take some refresher advanced courses in Psychology...
Posting such a thing was totally unprofessional and not ethical when presented with the assumption that it was a professional opinion...

First part of your statement is correct. I am not a professional. The second part of that statement is incorrect. I did not preface my opinion by saying that I was or wasn't a professional. You read into it more than was actually there. It was only a opinion.
This part of your statement is correct. I would also add that I asked her if I could.
My mistake in not being clear that she took classes in these areas when she went to college. She does not teach classes. As for why I would mention it at all, was to let Kona know what part of the ballpark my wife's coming from. If she was a drooling idiot in a straightjacket, I would have said that too. And don't worry I won't make any assumptions about your level of professionalism. It's just your opinion.
I found Jafo's comment very much more appropriate than yours about my post...Straightforward and he didn't fabricate what wasn't there.
