Ok... fine, pictures of her then (initially nude ones). Err.... who would want to even know/see pictures of their nude mother? :weird:

A NEW Zealand teenager tried to sell sexy photos of his mother in her underwear online to make some quick cash.
While most 18-year-olds would balk at the thought of their parents naked, Auckland student Michael appeared comfortable with the concept, twice listing nude and semi-clothed images of his 44-year-old mother Jennifer.
The first time he auctioned "five naked photos of my mum'' to annoy her after the pair had an argument, he told the Herald on Sunday newspaper.
When TradeMe removed the listing the following day he relisted a second series of "glamour photos'' with her permission.
This time there was more clothing but one was an underwear shot.
Michael, who did not want his full name used, said he did it for the extra cash.
"We're not rich or anything,'' he said.
Jennifer said she was "pretty annoyed'' by the first listing, calling her son a "cheeky little git'', but liked the second lot because they were "quite artistic''.
"There's nothing dodgy about them. They were taken by a family friend about eight years ago,'' Jennifer told the newspaper.
"I wanted 50 per cent of the sale but more than that, I miss the nice comments.''
The photos were viewed 11,000 times before they were pulled by the website's management, citing "inappropriateness''.
"We don't really want to be the place where people list photos of their mums in their underwear,'' TradeMe spokesman Jon Macdonald said.
Apologies for a repost, if it is, but I did search...
