I'm pretty sure we would need to see a Splattski woman-uver to document it's existence and include it in the criteria. I for one have been trying to come up with a good idea for one. Everything I have thought of i would probably get hurt trying to do... lol :-)
I used to take lots of Splattskis when I was younger with older style cameras, then I was corrupted. Having timers and remotes I started taking very unSplattski summit shots. I ruined many solo moments on great peaks by taking self timer shots. I am ashamed of how many Splattski opportunities I threw away. I live in Wyoming and I can look directly into Idaho from my house, so I am close to the Splattski homeland, I hope I can redeem myself.
Many have gone to the dark side, technology's force is strong...but don't fret, there is still hope for you. Admitting the problem is the first step, and you have come a long way just doing that. We are so proud. Be shamed no longer, and take a Splattski at your next opportunity. When you post, you will be healed...stay strong until then my friend.
I've found that the best way to take a pic like this is to take the picture upside down. It is a whole lot easier to hold the camera and take the picture and gives you a couple more inches of room...

hahahNice: "That said, Everest Splattskis are not any more impressive than a Splattski of your 88 year-old grandma, on oxygen, on any summit."
Awesome hilarity!
