That depends on what they're modeling.

Middle age hits us all, some with more vengeance than others. Those whose body metabolism (or other genetic traits) help them avoid the middle-age spread are the lucky few. I work hard to stay in shape, but it's an uphill battle, and even the slightest let down (which is inevitable given my travel schedule) quickly manifests itself in a growing waistline.

But I have no objections to anyone thinking I'm model material.

More than reasonable - in fact, prophetic. ;)

LOL! Prophetic indeed!

And I've no problem thinking of Guy as model material as long as he posts a convincing enough picture. :)

My avatar has a recent picture of me. You be the judge.

Well, well, well...you are handsome! And not only are you handsome, Guy, you're famous as well! I didn't know you were Jeremy Irons!

What I'd like to know is how you got such a big avatar to upload. I thought they all had to be fairly small. I can't use any recent photos of me (real ones :P) as my avatar on this board because the file size requirement for avatars is so small. How did you get around that to post the big shot of Mr. Irons?

I'm curious too. I wanted a bigger avatar.

I've been told that Jeremy Irons looks a lot like me. No doubt he constantly hears that he bears a striking resemblance to Guy Sajer.

The avatar was taken during a recent night out with my wife, I merely uploaded from my digital camera and pasted it here. But, if I were to paste in a link to Jeremy Irons, I wouldn't have any idea how to make it so big. It is likely that I would simply do a Google image search and past in the link of a random photo into my profile. But this is only hypothetical.

Hypothetically, I could copy/paste the URL from a picture in photobucket and by-pass the size restriction for avatars. Hypothetically.

Got it, Nehor?

PS - Thanks, handsome Guy.
