Richter is photographing

the fetish scene and leather lifestyle at large. |

Welcome to our new
(slightly wider) format.
I am always concerned
about keeping the e-news compatible with a wide variety of e-mail programs
and browsers. On the other hand, the vast majority of our readers have
"graduated" from the 640 by 480 pixel format of years gone
by. Moving to a slightly wider screen format will allow us to speed
up our production process - while hopefully maintaining compatibility
with most of our readers. Let me know if this new format doesn't work
for you. Thanks!
Plus, many
more new artist websites coming in future editions!
