last night we had a bit of a social gathering over at Alan Iglesias' place. I asked them to confirm my suspicion that there is a phallic symbol in Robert Stein's image that appears on the 3dsr3 release notice (sent to all registered users), inside the reference manual (image 24), and on the front cover of Computer Pictures (slightly cropped). I'll let you all see if you can spot what I'm talking about, and I'm not talking about the building itself – it's far more obvious than that <g>. Let me know what y'all think and confirm that we hadn't just had too much beer :-\ BTW, we all agreed that it was a phallic symbol, if not a full-blown phallus. Anyway, nobody found it offensive. I just thought it was ironic that it slipped through (no pun intended).
