Yeah, but if you look at him sitting, his legs and arms are REALLY long. Naruto's sitting in about the same position when looking at the picturebook, and his shape isn't like Sasuke's.
XP Well, it looks like Sasuke is taller than Naruto, who is actually taller than Sakura.
And yes, he's a grumpy bitch, but he's a grumpy bitch learning jutsus from Orochimaru, which is now confirmed. I know there's been lingering thoughts that Orochimaru wouldn't actually teach Sasuke anything of substance because he just wants Sasuke's body. But it looks like Orochimaru is keeping up his end of the bargain to give Sasuke the power to kill Itachi.
... and I saw Biz's LJ. XD!! You can miss the huge sparkly font.
Boy, if he really is taller than Naruto, that's going to hurt a lot of the naru/sasu shippers that seem to old to that height rule. XD
I can't see Sasuke staying if Oro wouldn't fullfil his end of the deal, you know? Or staying voluntarily, anyway, and I also don't see him going along with any forced stay. All I can think, though, is you *know* Sasuke had to learn some really nasty stuff.. and god, I *hope* Naruto has the equivalent. Because we haven't seen jack from Naruto yet, and that makes me sad.
Hmm... well, Sasuke has ALWAYS been taller than Naruto, and people still shipped NaruSasu at 12. XD;; I still think Kyuubi > Everyone (except Yondaime).
And of course, Sasuke wouldn't be staying if he was getting gypped, but Orochimaru could always teach Sasuke jutsus that are powerful, but more meant to "pass the time" instead of "pwn Itachi". Afterall, Sasuke doesn't exactly know the extent of Itachi's abilities, so Orochimaru says: "This is powerful" Sasuke might be more likely to believe it.
AND YES. NARUTO HAS TO SHOW US THAT JUSTU OR I WILL SCREAM.

Also, I can't wait till Biz gets online. I have a feeling she's going to explode all over me. You should see her journal. XD XD XD
