I see what you mean, but I notive that I have to be proud of the drawing I sent tobe sure to get some job. it's one of my "tamest" drawing I have. it was for a really "tame" festival (who PAID for that poster) in france and they do love it. So I trust it. It could work.

I used Gotprint and they were good, though shipping can be expensive.

It's a judgement call as far as subject matter goes; from being a designer and art director, I would say Tanxxx's card is just fine. It conveys her style but won't "scare" away squat-to-piss pantywaist ADs.
