Post subject:  End of an era

As some may have already noticed, Karma's latest release is the first time there hasn't been a female singer on the splash screen (cover photo) since it's launch in 2008. Every year since, the photo would change with each year's new version. Back in 2008, it seemed like a great idea, and back then it was. Fast forward a dozen years and times have changed. I don't want to get into the politics and people's personal views on the matter but, at 52, and having 3 daughters myself, I started having a problem portraying that kind of image, especially in today's environment. Even though I still believe all the photos were extremely tasteful and artistic, the fact remains that many people still view them as objectifying, and that does bother me. That was not the intention. So, to any people who found it offensive, you have my apologies. Times have changed and we can change with them.
