You never know what crazy stuff people will pull off. If it's supposed to be placed in your own custom map, with it's own theme, on a huge wall, why not?
I agree it is too much 99% of the situations but I want to give some freedom here.

Nineaxis: You can post some too if you want But this is so easy that people will find it themselves. I mean, you might aswell give a photoshop tutorial etc...
