Okay.

Do you know for certain it is his likeness? I don't. It just looks
like a (rather attractive) Anime line art representation of a boy.
But by no means does it look like the real person. Not that I know
what the real person looks like from that image, which defeats the
point of the rogues.

And I say that the rogues are supposed to be our pictures. Ways to
say "this is me - pleased to meet you". Anyone that squeamish about
sharing their likeness at this level shouldn't get involved, rather
than mislead or deceive.

> What then about Melissa's or

Well, Leif and I actually discussed Melissa's case specifically.
Melissa put her case as to whether or not to contribute that image.
It is a picture of her doing something very important to her from a
magazine cover photo. She also said that she values her privacy and
has had cause to regret publishing too much information about
herself in the past. We decided to make an exception *just for
Melissa* in this case.

> Peter Hofmann's photos?

I'm not sure that Peter Hofmann's picture is appropriate though. I
didn't approve it myself and don't remember seeing it come up for
approval.

Well then, how about this one for me, for example?
http://www.silverstones.com/DameMarck.jpg. It's me. Doing something
I enjoy. (No! Not being a drag queen - but performing on-stage, in
this case as the Dame in a pantomime - a peculiarly British piece of
seasonal entertainment).
