Haptomaphilia

From haptomai:

1. to fasten one's self to, adhere to, cling to

a. to touch
b. of carnal intercourse with a women or cohabitation
c. of levitical practice of having no fellowship with heathen practices. Things not to be touched appear to be both women and certain kinds of food, so celibacy and abstinence of certain kinds of food and drink are recommended.
d. to touch, assail anyone​

Did I get it right?
 
okay, I'll ask since dictionary.com didn't help, What is it?

I think it's the fetishisation of touch, especially with fingertips

Ding ding!

Does it have something to do with binding?

well that fits...
I was going to say "an abnormal attraction to lucky bruising."
not sure how, but that fits too...
 
It sounds very hands on.

Poking, prodding, stroking, slapping, holding, grabbing, brushing?

Being poked, prodded, stroked, slapped, held, grabbed, brushed?

I'm for it. Hands are good!
 
I really like to be petted, but only by people I really care about. I'd rather not even accidentally brush shoulders with everyone else in the world. I'm *really* funny about who I'll let touch me and who I won't.

good! I decided that my fingerprint/touch fetish had to have a name and that is it!

I'm declaring it via my website which is now live (kinda.... still missing some pics).

I'm thinking the #dedede background is a little cold, as it is right now... And the pics could all be larger, since you have a fixed width for your content field.

But getting there!

Your art nouveau style is the bomb! :rose:

Thank you! :)

I put the pics into flickr, they go full screen if you click the bottom right. I need to make that clear on the page. The good thing about using flickr is I can get much bigger pics on and can change them around at will without having to worry about uploading via the website.

I made it fixed width on the advice of someone who has made some web sites before. there is apparently a good reason for it. God knows what it is.

i suppose the background colour is because I have this idea of stone in my mind. I never would have known it would be so difficult to make a website, seriously.

the art nouveau bits are actually originals, I haven't got my repros back from the casters yet, but i wanted to see how it looks with a slideshow in place.

I was looking on informed consent yesterday and there are web designers willing to do a quid pro quo. wondering if I can maybe do a bit of domming and get a pro in :D

dammit, if I were in your area... ;)

If you want some visual tweaking, I can do some photoshopping for you, and help you change the image size parameters. it wouldn't be much time or trouble.
