Yes they can save the pic, which is why I haven't posted a pic (call me paranoid).

Me, I have been compared to Nick Nolte and Gary Bussy. I think Gary Bussy is closer.


Don't say it! You will always be Matt Damon to me.


Me too, Jason! Although...hmm....Nick Nolte is pretty hot! ;)


I had always pictured Wade Englund as a Gary Bussy kind of look. I see him older in his sixties with wavy blonde/grey hair.


Good call, Seven, though Wade has for sometime been using an in real life pic of himself for his avatar. It is a pic of him in a kayak, I believe.

As for some of the others, I imagine Coggins7 to look like Ronnie [sp?] Cox from Deliverance---you know, w/ the glasses and sideburns, perhaps with a few brown, broken, and/or missing teeth.

What nefarious purposes? Like pasting your head on some porn pix and using it as an "aid", or am I being naïve as to more serious dangers?

I was thinking of the dangers of being photoshopped into a bishopric photo, or something.

It is possible. If you right click on the image there should be an option to "Save Image As".

Me? I load everything into my photobucket account, so I usually just upload it to their server using the url of the image.

Do I care one way or another? Not in the slightest. I think it is the highest form of praise if someone were to use an image of me in a parody. It means that people know who I am.

But what if they photoshopped you into a kayak? Yikes! ;-)

I once was the victim of photoshopping. A fringie Mormon, albeit a bit of a perv, put my head (not from this photo) on top of a female weight builder's body. God only knows what he does with that photo in his spare time. :P

The reason I ask is I'm hoping soon to schedule my next party soon and you can see just what we all look like.

If I can get enough people this time around since the last one was so successful I might rent out our hotels meeting room for it all.

(for those that are wondering, I don't care what side of the argument you are on for invitation purposes. Videogames don't discriminate)


Sono, I don't know why, but I picture you as Asian. Must be something about the avatar.


nope, total white gaijin. My avatar is explained in my "comparitive religion" thread. Its a norse/scandinavian symbol.

I host open parties here in provo, so theres not exactly much left to hide. Hell for the last one i hosted it at my personal apt.

Besides, i use Sono_hito as my regular nick all over the web. A quick search would tell you alot about me.
