Marcia Cross has done some steamy scenes for "Desperate Housewives," but the actress' steamiest exploit is yet to be released to the public. Nude photographs of Marcia may soon be sold by "Phoenix-based agent" David Hans Schmidt, reports the New York Daily News.

Schmidt is representing a junk removal service that found the photos after being hired by Cross to get rid of her trash. Cross and her lawyers are claiming that the photos were thrown out by mistake and are asking that they be returned. The lawyers also attest that the photographs are copyrighted to Marcia and her husband, Tom Mahoney.

Schmidt tells NYDN, "The pictures were not stolen. When you throw something away, you forfeit that property. We recognize the copyright issue, but U.S. copyright law stops at the border…I'm not looking to mortify Ms. Cross. I just want the most money for my client." He has suggested to Cross that she purchase the photos back from his client.
Schmidt described the images. He says, "There are some pictures of her showering outside. She looks absolutely gorgeous. And yes, the carpet does match the curtains."
