Yeah, Dialyn mentioned as much. The post was long, yes, yes it was...but the issue was side tracked. It was brought up that people buying magazines off the newstand are more likely to pick up one that has a person or person(s) on it. Well, yeah, people make the news, but I subscribe to several Fine Art mags and they rarely have people or artwork portraying people on the covers, actually the covers of those publications are rather diversified and still provide enough interest for people to buy them. One of my favorite artist's Frank Stella, had a cover (Modern Art) that was really neat, he makes his sculptures from twisted car bodies. That issue sold out. Southwest Art features all kinds of artwork even though the magazine is geared for the title. Art in America, features all kinds too on their cover. So what are they afraid of, that nobody will want the magazine if a Poser figure isn't featured on the cover? Sorry, that was a rhetorical question....;]
