Apologies for tinyurl-ing many of the links; most were between 250-400 characters each.

So? It's not as though we're typing them in ourselves. The tinyurls will stop working soon, and then this post will be useless in the archives.

I hope one of the admins fixes the links because aside from that, this is an interesting post. Thanks.

I've fixed 'em. Evstar is right on—tinyurl-style links just mask content/destination information (and might cease functioning some day), and we aren't hurting for space.

I agree with Evstar. Although I have on thINg to say. It defINitely is an INteresting post about paINtings, but the test on that INternet page is a tad hard on the eyes. I'm just sayINg.... :)

On the other hand, nice post. There's some really interesting art here.

what's with all the 'in' highlighting? Is this something only a tech-geek or MeFi mod would understand?

I sure as hell don't get it.

For some reason, all the instances of the letters "in" are written in red on a bunch of the linked pages in the post, whereas the rest of the text is in black. As Debaser626 points out, this is disconcerting, to say the least.

Awesome post, thanks for the great resource.

Ah! I hadn't noticed that. It's almost certainly highlighted search term matches as embedded in the urls that got charmston to the individual pages in the first place.

Very interesting site.

Sigh, why can't I draw? Why can't I paint? I wish I had some kind of artistic ability but I don't. I've tried so hard ... so hard but I never seem to get any better. It's like anyone can draw better than me and I will never get as good as them no matter how hard I try. I might as well kill myself.
