Lame theory: I think that many young people who are, or could be, attractive are subject to dark moods that come with a kind of self-hatred, hence the weird modifications of appearance unrelated to their actual "looks." You sometimes encounter young visual artists who look fine but will do self-portratis that are zombie-like. I'm assuming the "pink lady" is a costume and make-up project that got removed that evening, or so I hope. Although I know it is a makeover of a Forums member into the pipe show spirit. (I'm so earnestly non-tech; this is probably all photoshop; where else would you get those eyes with no whites at all?)
