Another example of the ‘Slipped Tits’ phenomenon. The crude description was not my own: it was coined by somebody who used to preserve an archive of unfortunately cropped photographs of male and female chests see on the Slipped Disc main page. Really, though, can nothing be done about it?
What are you referring to? I see nothing wrong with this photo…
He’s referring to the “preview” pictures that you see on the main SD page, before clicking on and opening the respective threads. The system(?) seems to focus on the center of the given images while resizing them to smaller preview sizes, often resulting in the preview image being a close-up of a person’s breasts/chest.
Thank you, Max Grimm. Fair comment!
Exactly. It may seem a small complaint, but it looks slapdash and unprofessional. It also makes it hard to understand what an item is going to be about, since most of us recognise musicians (and others) by their faces.
