PS. Take a look at the glossary for the word jizz

header=[jizz] body=[Jizz is the 'je ne sais quoi' of a fly's being, the not easily defined mix of characters which identify a taxon.
This is the concept of gestalt and the family species is a gestalt entity. A gestalt entity is a physical, biological, psychological, or symbolic configuration or pattern of elements, so unified as a whole that its properties cannot be derived from a simple summation of its parts.

this sums up what photos are all about I hope.

EDIT Paul Beuk: added the [glos] tags for jizz. Anyone can now use the tags in the forum (at least for existing terms).
