Hi,
The Gathering 2004 was an awesome event. Love the industrial feel at the RAW gym.
I noticed that bloody photo of Kris Donnage on the Home page of the DB web site. It was a "cool" injury, and Kris took it well. If I was not mistaken
in my observations, the injury was a scalp scrape from a stick technique
during the groundfighting portion of the fight when the helmets of both fighters had been removed. I hope the photo is there for only a few
days and is then moved to a "Wounds" gallery. Although I enjoy
watching and doing this sort of fighting, I think such a photo on the Home page is counterproductive in promoting the event.

BTW, does anyone have an email address for Kris ? My lovely
photographic assistant Ally snapped a photo of this in what may be
interpreted as a religious context: Arm of God (Marc Denny, head obscured) with his arm on Kris's shoulder. Over Marc's shoulder
peers the eyes of a Satan-like creature. The photo is unposed.
I'm not particularly religious, but the photo strikes me as such.
Here's a small version of the photo, which also isn't appropriate for
a main page photo :
