It seems odd to me that all the advice everyone has given you, you have shot down. The only one you didn't is your d-loop but you say someone else tied it. It seems like with all the advice you are shooting down, you must know pretty darn well what you need to do to improve. Why ask if your'e going to reject everything?
The only advice I've "shot down" as you so eloquently put it was the use of a kisser button and several things David assumed were wrong, but couldn't rightfully be noticed from the pictures.

Everything else I've considered or already fixed (I've tied on a new loop tonight.)

TFOX -

You may be right about my hips making it look like I'm leaning backwards. It doesn't feel like I'm leaning in either direction when I'm at full draw. That's just the way my body is naturally after I anchor.

It may look like my arm is locked, but it really isn't. Its barely unlocked, but it is relaxed. I don't lke how it feels when I really bend it at full draw, so I keep it as straight as possible without locking it.

You're also right about the bow being pointed down, but I don't have anything on my walls that I can aim at to be completely paralell with the ground. I'd have to take several pictures in order to be pointing straight forward without pointing at the ground slightly. It doesn't help that I've got only a 10 second timer on my camera with which to take photos myself.
