TLC Requested they be removed probably because the pics were prototypes from a Retailer Catalogue, which isn't supposed to be for the public. Its a matter of corporate security, and is one of the problems the Ambassadors are facing. As much as the community likes to see them, myself included ;-) Remember, other companies could potentially see them too. We don't want that to happen, would we? That said, I personally like to see prototype pics, I am just saying this from what TLC's standpoint probably is.
