I respect what you're saying man, I do. But to me you answered your own question... "a pic can give so much more". IMO it gives TOO much. There's too much wiggle room there. I like to be put in a box and see who can really be the most creative when given just a word, or a phrase, or even a descriptive sentence. To me it's more focused, thus a more accurate representation of skill. Both parties don't have a lot to work with... who can turn a desert to a garden? Na' mean? :)

As far as using a piece already sitting around, the chances of that happening are slim and can easily be applied to those pictures as well... I don't know. Maybe I'm just old school.
