not perfect, i know, but its all we got so far.

It should be one Person.

Awkward example would be pornstars who've taken their name from old time movie actors. So on a cast list for a 30s movie, you might get a picture of a young woman sucking a pink plastic dildo. ...hmm, maybe I should go change that one...
I'm assuming this'll get fixed eventually.

That isn't Antonio Banderas in Confessions of a MILF Nympho!?
The search function needs to be improved in coordinance with the item pages. Easier searching in addition to more helpful results.

If our moderator would just tell us rather than keeping his boss' dirty secrets that'd be helpful too.
