I actually like the uncropped version more as it is a bit menacing.
Cool stuff all the way, stinkie. And Happy birthday
Thanks, Kwist. Can't tell yet what version I'll go with. Komt tijd, komt raad.

Artists self-exegesis of the This piece illustrates Man's Inhumanity to Man sort tend to give me hives.
Hm, yes. I think we agree here.

(...) does the announce card say An Exhibition of Photographs by Stinkie? (I doubt the long term commercial viability of that name by the way). But are they photographs? And if so, of what? No camera was involved and nothing was photographed.
No, it wouldn't say 'photographs'. It'd say 'works', or something in the same vein. First, because I'd rather not dress my work up as something it isn't (quite the contrary - I'd emphasize its nature). Second, because -ideally- the show wouldn't solely consist of computer generated images. I'd like some gouaches (large abstracts), watercolors (ditto), reliefs (plywood + carpet) and sculptures (ditto) in there as well. And some pastels - those'd be the horrific cherry on top.

Are your digital files just the source that the final work is derived from or are they themselves the work of art? Would a collector buy a print or the digital file?
The files are just the source - the way they're presented, printed or on a screen, is an integral part of the 'end product', and specific to each separate work - as is the scale, dpi, compression, choice of paper, choice of screen, choice of frame etc.
