Well actually when I saw you linked to my story, I felt ashame not to be
on the picture with your books. So indeed, I'm going to get your books
and score some model to pose with it :)
The picture I sent you was taken with a lousy phone-camera, but I would
definately consider using a better camera when the subject gets more
interesting ;-)
