Happy Birthday, Mr. Steventheeunuch! A little bit earlier in the thread, someone was confused as to why you would receive a scarf in a place like Australia, which is often thought of as being mainly a warm place by many people in the northern hemisphere. It is winter right now in Australia, isn't it? Are Australia's winters cold? (Of course, it probably depends on where you live on the continent, huh?)

If Bamboo Dong is allowing a thread to be created, then she would pretty much have the say over how the thread will be run, unless Zac would like to have his say on it. The moderators would only mod bad posts then. I need to check out that thread, and look where this week's Answerman has taken us Laughing

Yay Richard J. you posted your pic! I didn't think you needed to if you weren't comfortable, but everyone was really looking forward to it!

The Apocalypse seems to not have happened, so no more worrying about what other people think or being afraid! Wink

I'll probably post my "profile" in the Meet ANN thread sometime tomorrow...it takes a while to try to come up with something or to talk about yourself and I'm tired. Heh.

Looks like you hit a sore spot psycho. Come on Zac. Mean spirited Flaming and stuff is one thing, but its a long way from a little innocent joking around.

There's no "come on zac" about it. I said nothing about the photo being a "mean spirited flame". I invited people to screw with my photo. All I was saying was that I kept an eye on this to make sure nobody was mocking any of our users' photos.

Okay, i see. I know you were not saying it was flaming, but it sounded like you were mad that he shopped your picture. I guess it came off that way cause you then it sounded like you were saying "No photoshoping of pictures or any jokes at all. I guess you werent. (I still dont see how youre inviting people to do so in your post though.) But, yeah if youre just clarifying that anything is NOT fair game like was said then thats understandable.

BTW, sorry psyco I meant whoever made that pic. I though it was you but I see now you just quoted it.

Yeah. It's much warmer up in the north than the south, which can actually get kinda cold. not as cold as some places, but when you're used to certian weather and then it screws you around then it's irritating.

This has turned out to be a pretty awful birthday honestly.

Well now, that is a very beautiful simile that you've used to describe my comments! Thank you very much for letting me know that my writing can be an enjoyable read.

I was hoping that sounded good. Occasionally I start waxing poetic and sometimes it sounds good, sometimes not. I do enjoy reading your posts and felt a spontaneous need to express that enjoyment. I'm just glad I didn't accidentally annoy you.

I accept your bestowment of the rank of Knight of ANN! Anime hyper

The first two thoughts I had when I saw your picture were: 1. He has nicely combed hair. 2. Does he have an Irish or Scottish background?

1: Thank you, I really have to work to keep my hair in line. It seems to think it's related to Medusa's snakes.

2: Yes actually. I'd have to go back a ways, but a fair portion of my family tree is rooted in both countries. (Scottish more on my father's side and Irish more on my mother's side.) My ethnic background is kind of boring actually since there's not a lot of variety to it. Still, born American, so at least I've got that going for me.

I'm not there yet, but posting that picture is something I absolutely would not have done a few years ago. Of course, I'm still trying to figure out why anyone wanted to see it at all.

That sucks. Sad

You'll have to celebrate twice as hard next year!

Many thanks to Ningensei, omar235, britannicamoore, Deltakiral, and LilacShadow for the compliments and kind words! Ya'll really make it easy to feel okay about having posted a picture of myself.

@ psycho 101: Considering your comments here, I'd perfer it if you don't fantasize about me. Although working in a carnival sounds like fun. Wink

spoiler[Just in case you or anyone else misunderstands, I took zero offense at what you said. I know (hope?) you were kidding around.]

Sad to hear. Hope it improves next year.

Wonderful, you get dubbed a Knight of ANN (is that similar to Knights of the Zodiac??) and I'm the ANN court jester. Rolling Eyes

::puts on his jester hat and dances like a tool:: Eh, at least I'm not the ANN toilet cleaner ::cough new mods cough:: hehe

I can understand why some people are hesitant to give out their names and post pictures. Being a criminal Justice major I"m supposed to say "be careful kids for perverts on the net!" As for myself, I've never been afraid to post my info simply because I'm strongly convinced NO ONE IN THE HISTORY ON MANKIND would wanna stalk and/or rape me. It just aint happening. I think many people wanted to see your face out of a state of curiosity. I mean, we're just names really on some forum. Knowing what you look like might make you seem more "real" if that makes any sense.

As for the carny disfiguraton....:::hides the scythe::: yea just a joke Twisted Evil

Now you're going to have to put that title under your name. Wink

Just out of sheer curiosity is all. Personally I'd like to see everyone's pics if I could, but if they don't want to, that's just fine. Still though, it is nice to have a face to go with the poster rather than just an avatar, especially if there a really nice person, just like you! Very Happy

I have to say though, that's about how I pictured you in the first place. Nothing to be ashamed of at all. Smile

Oh wow! I'm away for about 2 days and this thread has really taken off! To everyone who has posted a pic since Monday:

The guys look Cool

The ladies look very pretty.

For anyone who wants/needs a refresher, here's mine http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x83/whearn9999/647855890110_0_ALB1.jpg

I'm glad to see a new thread started. I was kinda sad to think that this thread would eventually die and I was going to suggest the idea of a "picture thread" or something. As soon as I dream up some fun facts about me, I'll post over there.

Oh, and Richard J:
There is something I always say to people who talk down about themselves, and it is this:

We are our own worst critics.

Everyone at one time or another thinks bad about themselves. It's normal. Beauty or handsomeness is in the eye of the beholder. Personally, my eyes have only seen beautiful/handsome people on this thread. Smile

Umm and when are we going to see a sexy picture of Omar-san??? Or did he post it somewhere already?

WHAT is that malignant tumor growing out of your left thigh??? j/k Wink

j/k

Ok, I've lost my mind and after much hassle managed to get a current photo of myself http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z119/MeggieMay_album/MegJune2007.png

Not a bad photo for a uber cheep digital camera but it reminds me on why I don't like photos of myself in general Embarassed

Hey Past, how about you share your photo before you ask others to post theirs, let alone criticize those who did. Rolling Eyes
