A question

My apologies if this sounds like a silly question, but what exactly does 'the process' refer to in relation to the shrunken woman.

Is it the concept of a gradual reduction in size (ie, slowly shrinking out of clothes etc), as opposed to a more rapid form of shrinking when zapped by some device or whatever?

I have to admit that I'm only here as a sw enthusiast, so the categories in the other subforums won't be of interest to me.

*EDIT* The images I posted at various points in this thread are now removed and archived (due to them not describing the actual process of shrinking).

I may well find another place for them on the forum in due course, but thank you all for your interest.
