That's an awesome picture! For some reason, the comics section really jumps off of the wall at me.

I see that you have creative commons licensing set, but I'd like to get your permission before I use this photo in an upcoming PracticalEnvironmentalist post. The blog will discuss recent green news, and I'm looking for a non-cliched way to show news headlines. This is perfect.

The blog hasn't been published yet, but the permalink will be:
http://www.practicalenvironmentalist.com/gard ening/

If you'd prefer that I use another picture, please let me know and I'll change it out ASAP. Thank you!
