I don't know if I should be saying this, but I have A picture (probably _not_ 
THE picture) in (slightly mangled) GIF format...

Before everyone activates their proton packs, I'd just like to say that the
picture I have is _relatively_ tasteful!  I suppose it's in the same sort of
style as those centaurs in Fantasia.  I wouldn't describe it as blatant
pornography.  It's been VERY well drawn, and it just looks, well ... so *cute*!

I found it while looking (honest, I was just looking!) in
alt.binaries.pictures.erotica (where else).  Personally, I think someone who
would use a nudie picture of Ariel as an "emotional outlet" (for want of a
better word) has a bit of a psychological problem anyway.  But, like I said, it
looks really _cute_.  I think the "Be My Guest" parody was probably more
offensive than this.  Just the same though, I wonder about it's suitability for
this group.  As for reposting to a.b.p.e., well: 1) It's corrupted, 2) Not
every site gets that group, 3) Huge amount of crap to wade thru, 4) They've
already had it once!  If I upload to an FTP site, it might get closed down, and
that means no more BatB/LM/Aladdin piccys.  What a dilemma! 

Anyway, I mention that it's slightly mangled.  That's because this stoopid
newsreader "ate" a big chunk of the UUE code.  As a result, it may cause GIF
viewers to barf (mine does).  The bit missing from the bottom is just the left
side of Ariel's fin, so you can probably use your imagination to fill in the
blank.

I also have a nudie picture of Jessica Rabbit, but this one is really tacky! 
Recommended for perverts only!

So that's the story.  Whatever happens, I can't upload anything off floppy
until late Feb / early March.  If you really desparately, urgently need it
as soon as possible (sickos!) I can find out who originally posted it and you
can contact them, but I don't know if they still have it (might be a false
address too).

I'm just testing the water at the moment (Gurgle, gurgle!).  I hope the sh*t
doesn't hit the fan _too_ hard!
