I don't think Gnomey is a "big fan of snuff photos" either Greg.
The reality is that such photos exist .. and they document real events ... not simply the actions of psychopaths.

Not making more out of it but yes it happend, yes there is a picture, yes it is appropiate to post, but the comment is not i think. Staff member or not, humourosly ment perhaps, but no.
IMO, each of the Mods has their own style of monitoring proceedings ... Gnomey uses that phrase as a signature that he is observing .... I am sure he didn't reflect on the photo posted ....
Greg only had to dislike the photo and everyone would understand .... if it wasn't my post I would have have used 'informative' to indicate that I had reservations or mixed feelings.
A Polish soldier mans a M1919 mounted on a Universal Carrier. Taken at the extreme forward positions around Carmuset er Regem, near Gazala, Libya. 16 February 1942. No photo credit available.
One of my CGI works which showed a set of harness of Japanese airman on a doll which had no head/hands/legs had ever been deleted without notice. I simply understood that their sensitivity was different in the US.
I don't have a problem with the photograph itself, which merely documents an execution. It was the juxtaposition of Gnomey's comment, which may not have been intended to appear immediately following that particular image, which appeared to me crass and insensitive.
