Looks like it hasn't been reviewed in ages, so I submitted request for re-review, and explained it's an art portfolio site. If bluecoat changes its classification, our proxies will pick it up and allow it again. I know one other person, at least, mentioned they were experiencing the same at their office. So hopefully this gets fixed for both. :pint:

Whew thanks for the update. I was worried sick

I'm sure submitting porno sites as "art" has helped a lot of other folks at their place of business. :wink:

Anyway, my Hugs landed. Good gravy this thing is stunning. :notworthy:

It looks good and I know it was a commish but I'll wait for the next one. I already have too many yoga goats. :pint:

Alright...who framed up Hugs, Etc. over the holidays? I need to see how y'all are doing this as I'm having a hard time deciding how to approach this beast.

Due to cost and the size of this thing I just went with simple black frame, spacers, uv/ag acryllic. Ordered from Fram Destination and was about $220 I think. Looks nice and clean though.

I cant frame it yet because all my other Esaos have the same fancy wooden frames so I have to keep with the look.

I asked my local brothel how they'd want to frame it, and the response I got was "antibacterial."

I was super on the fence about getting Hugs (didn't end up doing it), but I priced out/would've done the same thing from Frame Destination. I love crazy frames, but for a lot of stuff I like the consistency/affordability of simple gallery frames, esp at a larger size and with the amount of art on the walls.

Made the decision even worse when I realized I could frame it up decently for a couple hundred bucks. Alas.
