That's just a slight impression from the Desert Eagle revolver.

I miss the Bowie avatar, btw.

I agree, it looks slightly feminine, and I wonder if the wearer could reach up for the steering wheel without the jacket seizing up on him like a straitjacket... ?

But there is the implication that one must have one or the other, if no ripples is considered 'too clean'...unless there is a way to avoid being 'too clean' while still having no ripples?

Is the pic from the Sart actually a good back?

And btw, you asshats make it very difficult to ask questions without appearing gay. I can't ask to see your backs and whether your backs are clean...etc. Stop it.
