The iconic logo of the lady holding the torch that you currently see at the beginning of every Columbia Pictures movie was born in the apartment of Pulitzer Prize-winning New Orleans photographer Kathy Anderson in 1991.
The final version is a painting, but few people know that it was based on a photo of the photographer’s colleague, captured during a portrait shoot in a small space using very simple props.
“During the shoot, Jenny asked if she could sit down for a minute,” says the photographer. “I shot one frame of her seated, which may be my favorite image from the shoot. But after chatting for a minute, she confided that she was pregnant. After congratulating her, we resumed shooting, but I was worried about her standing on the box.”

With permababy skins confirmed to be on the horizon and templates already available, I wanted to quickly gather the stats on the popularity of each breed under the eternally youthful effect. You'd have a hard time selling a skin for a permababy when there's only a few hundred of that breed's babies in the game, after all. The stats are interesting! I've bolded top 5 most popular, and italicized the top 5 least.
Coatls are winning by a LANDSLIDE here. Not surprisingly, they're widely accepted as Very Cute. Not surprising to see dusthide and auraboas so low considering they're both still very new, particularly dusthides. Little surprising to see surges are that low, but most of all I was shocked to see wildclaws make bottom 5!
