What exactly is that supposed to show? Isn't it easier to see, with them just relaxed (like while basking)?

how many gravid lizard pics have you seen from that view? unless they have bred them most people haven't. so just enjoy it.

Well I believe he is reffering to the picture not showing much.
You held it up in that position for a reason I assume correct?

What exactly did you want us all to notice? I could hold one of my males up after eating a meal and his belly looks that way too. Same goes for the females.

So what exactly was your point in holding it that way and saying everyone look??? Be a little more descriptive with the photos.

it clearly wasn't a male, it was obviously a female, the pic was further evidence of that. also, she was very rounded where a gravid female would be rounded, not like a meal would show.

Haha I never said it was a male. I said mine have large full stomachs after a meal too giving a bulged look.

You said you put that cause not everyone sees pics of gravid females that way. Well if they have not seen one then they would soon think there males were gravid. Or females after eating. your picture and the way you held it are not as descirptive as you are thinking.

Somehow you did not get my point at all. But thats Ok cause i didnt get your picture.
