Whoa, at first glance I thought that was a cat with a recent surgical wound
(gross!). Other than that concern about this particular image, however,
pictures that are a bit irreverent don't personally bother me.

On the one hand, we want to create a credible site that professionals can
trust. On the other, WPD is part of the internet ecosystem--an ecosystem
that has a certain kind of irreverent humor. I'm *personally *fine with
images that are irreverent as long as they aren't over the top or
potentially offensive.
