Oh geez...I guess it could be perceived as right behind the top of the lighter. I tried that grip on my phone and sorta where my fingers would fall into place. Like a knuckleball.

Oil and the fact that it's running out.

It's a nice print, but I'm a little worn on the oil angle. I count 10 in the last year & 1/2. Why not battle other social/political/environmental ills? Plenty on the table to choose from.
Also, image is too close to High Time.

The flame is the finger. What would we give up for oil. I like it!

I think each and every other of society's "ills" can be boiled down to oil and it's craving of.

We passed peak oil a long time ago and that was without the awakening of the sleeping giants that is India and China and now they have woken from their slumber and have a thirst for all things western. There isnt one aspect of your life that isn't dominated by oil and oil based products and there's precious little of it left

Must of tried on my phone for 5 minutes today, I just don't see that finger being there, it's very uncomfortable in that position for a few seconds lol.


Regardless, if anyone needs help, let me know as I'm passing on this one.

I was going to point that out, but I'm also missing a finger.

Maybe he's saying people's freedom to smoke cigarettes is slowly being taken away....yup, definitely a cigarette smoking rights advocacy poster.

I've been staring at the image and still seems off to me (missing finger aside). Isn't the thumb usually on the side with the wheel?
