When I first saw this I thought hang on a minute, some nutjob wants lewd photos of womens' stockinged legs :eek::eek: Then I read on, and it sits well on my moral compass :p Nothing vulgar, just a leg(s) photo with either tights, stockings or leggings. One other thing. You need to get your photo liked by 15 friends to enter the final judging part. This part will be judged by 3 independent fashionistas. Right, here goes:
