Okay, so there you have it. All members that a have commented seem to agree
with me as to not to censor. There was only one negative comment. That had
to do with a personal preference, "I don't like it." That is a matter of
taste, however.

So up it goes.

Many thanks for your contributions.

Warmest regards

Ed McCormick

The question of censurship is entirely up to you ED
you could always link it .
I know the people that put this together and it was a lot of hard work ,I my

self being envolved on the full body casting side of this commision as is my

particular expertise.
Its really quite impressive as the head sculpter Roland Steveson on the team

told me more of a model making enterprise
when seen collectively it really is art and compliments the diversity of the

human form
I personally dont think it would offend any one perhaps put a smile here and

there
so be happy every body
