No, I've completely given up on them...even being close to .500, I will not go back (although, I think I'm taking some customers there next week )

Since you seem to know the 60's team even better than me, I'll see if I can get you a pic of Maz's statue they just put up.

My pic of the day...Chocolate Raspberry Truffle ice cream. Should have turned the label a tad...

Yes it is, but the real solution to the preceding image would have been to have her long hair draped over one of her armpits, and the other arm down so we couldn't see the armpit.

Armpits, nostrils, etc. just don't work in my book for modeling.

thanks for the info
i wanted a different look as you can see from my Flickr i have many "normal" ones. I've check out a few magazines and they seem to have a few armpits like mine or just one hand on the hair. What I should have done in my PP is blur and touch up the pits to be smooth as a baby's butt

Well, they reached .500 tonight, beating the Astros 7-3. A few shots during batting practice.
