...with a few comments:
a) "Terry's one of my favorite people in this club." I don't know that I'd want to admit that in public.
b) "I agreed with Chuck last night on the board for the simple fact that I love this club and it breaks my heart to wonder what visitors and potential new members may think about members of the Splashbar and club members in general." I find it hard to imagine that someone falling onto The Chip Board for the first time would take away from Terry's pictures anything negative about the denizens of the Splash Bar. To me it's mind boggling that his pictures could be taken by ANYONE as anything more that unadulterated humor... again, even if they didn't know Terry. Another point to make here is that, as far as I know, everyone who attends the Splash Bar festivities is a reader of The Chip Board and is well aware of Mr. Shaffer's "interesting" sense of humor. I just can't see a scenario where Terry's pictures potentially detract from the fun, since everyone who sees the pictures knows it's just Terry being Terry.
That said, if some readers find some of Terry's images to be patently offensive, that's another issue altogether, but the dialog should not be about impacting the Spash Bar activities.
b) "Easy Rule of Thumb: If you can post your picture in your company's lunchroom in full view of not only your co-workers, but your peers as well - it's fit to post here." I can remember posting a photo of a plastic chair and getting lambasted by one or two readers.
