Members Image Gallery
 
Hi there ... is at all possible to have a members gallery for posting self pics and stuff so we can all see who we're talking to? Or just a facility to include a pic in our profile page.

Ta lots :)

PS. I'm enjoying my stay here, very nice people so far. :)

Undertoad 05-25-2003 06:57 PM

It's a fine idea, and will be worked on, along with the 30-second music sample concept.

I've always liked the idea of an expanded profile but could never figure out what should go into it.

SteveDallas 05-25-2003 07:20 PM

UT, I'm not familiar with the gory details of all the web forum softwares out there... they're all a lot a like from my end-use standpoint... but some of them allow you to post a picture along with your tag line, right under your handle. Does this one have that option? If so, it might fit the bill for those who wish to use it.

El Saano has that option. Wait a minute though...isn't that essentially an avatar?

There are several pics of my mug floating around here, but since you want to see the crazies you're talking to, Chris, here:

(I'm not flipping you off Chris...that pic is 5 years old.)

Undertoad 05-25-2003 09:01 PM

I have always always felt that avatars ruin things. I know for example that Syc doesn't want that pic to represent him in every piece of communication. Although this is an era when people find a small design that they will put on their body and carry with them always, so maybe I'm wrong.

elSicomoro 05-25-2003 09:24 PM

True...I wouldn't want anyone to get the idea that I'm just another angry Gen Xer. (Shhh! Don't tell anybody!)

There are some other pics of myself in this thread, starting with that particular post forward.

juju 05-25-2003 10:58 PM

Yeah, they eye is naturally drawn to images on the screen. So I personally find it very hard to read forums that have avatars or image taglines. I keep having to force my eye to focus on the text.

SteveDallas 05-26-2003 09:37 AM

Oh, I don't like em myself. It was just a thought toward an easy solution to the picture gallery idea.

I've been on other v-bulletin sites that have the avatars. The only thing about them that I can see is that they may be more trouble than they are worth bandwith-wise.

Although ...

I have fun watching the occasional changes of tagline ... might also be fun to track the changes of mood which would result in a change of avatar.

Here's me ... :-D smile and say "cheese"!

juju 05-26-2003 10:40 PM

Hey, I think I can see almost half your face in that picture! And look at that body.. mm mm mmm. er.. wait, I guess I can't.

juju 05-26-2003 10:56 PM

I guess most all of the regulars have posted their picture here at one time or another, but you'd have to have been paying attention to catch them all. So here's me:

Tobiasly 05-26-2003 11:00 PM

Wow, juju. That picture explains a <B>lot</B>.

:)

wolf 05-26-2003 11:01 PM

I'll try to take a better picture tommorrow when i have some more time ;) I just got home and am still unpacking, haven't gotten to the camera yet. That was a nasty pulled off the webcam at a moments notice shot ... bad lighting and all.

juju 05-26-2003 11:08 PM

Cool! It seems like I vaguely recall seeing your picture on here before. Maybe I'm remembering wrong, though. But hey, we should all post our pictures. It'll be a picture thread!

Tob, whatever do you mean??

wolf 05-26-2003 11:11 PM

I think I was intimidating Elspode once and posted a pic of myself with my rifle (there are many like it but that one is mine). :shotgun:

Undertoad 05-27-2003 10:10 AM

juju, he meant that it explains a lot that you use a splitter to create a second phone line from your wall jack. You have the smarts to do that as opposed to calling the telco for a new line!

Tobiasly 05-27-2003 10:15 AM

No meaning really juju, just a random thing to say to someone.

Actually no. I kinda like the avatars that I see in certain forums...some are quite funny. Plus, some are orginal creations, so it's nice to see ppl being unique with their "art" (if you will).

ladysycamore 07-01-2003 05:15 PM

Bruce: that pic of you is SOOOOO adorable!!! :)

Nothing wrong with that. Hmm, I see from your profile that you do broadband internet technical support. So, for the right guy would you be willing to do something really special and......


















set up gigabit ethernet?

This is the coolest pic ever taken of me. It's old, but I don't look much different now.

Oh, what the hell...I don't have many pics of myself since I'm usually the one taking the photos, but here's a couple...one is of me at a family reunion a year ago, and the other is me playing with my band at last year's Pagan Pride Day.

The redhead on keyboards at left is my wife, and the grey haired gent on guitar on the right is Mr. Mike Nichols, who is widely known as a seminal Pagan author/researcher, and an authority on Celtic holidays. This probably means nothing to you unless you are a Pagan, but the guy is practically famous in the world of Witchcraft. He's also a lot of fun as he is a great pop culture afficianado, so we bandy about a lot of memories about old geezer rock and roll, film and other such diversions.

dave 07-01-2003 11:04 PM

I have gigabit ethernet in four machines. In the rebuilt house, we're gonna get a gigabit switch to connect our gigabit machines. Toight, eh?

elSicomoro 07-02-2003 07:58 AM

Bruce, I don't care if you're old or not...I'm going to whip your ass. :)

Undertoad 11-13-2003 12:27 PM

I had actually pictured someone MORE crosseyed and insane.

dave 11-13-2003 12:56 PM

Are you constipated in that picture or what? It looks like you're squeezing the hardest loaf of your life right there in that chair. Don't push so hard or you'll pop an artery.

lumberjim 11-13-2003 01:11 PM

YEAH....I know

Elspode 11-13-2003 09:03 PM

By golly, Tonsky *is* cute, isn't she? Sort of got that whole dark pixie thing going on.

And UT looks nothing like I'd pictured him. Of course, people never do.

elSicomoro 11-13-2003 09:22 PM

Wow, bmgb looks like Björk...and Bruce looks like one of those crazies that lives out in the woods...and he STILL looks like that, just grayer...and with less hair on top.

Elspode 11-13-2003 09:30 PM

I'm sorry...I'm truly sorry...Bruce is a great guy, but....well....it was just that after I saw his old drivers license picture, this was the first thing that came to mind, and you know how I am.

Elspode 11-13-2003 09:32 PM

Ah...shit. Now I'm consumed with guilt. Bruce has never been anything but nice to me, and I've Mansonized him.

Disclaimer: Bruce is NOT Charles Manson, he's nothing like Charles Manson, or his sister, Marilyn Manson.

You can deface any of my pictures that you want to, Bruce. I deserve it.

Don't feel bad, Bruce. Look at this old pic of me.

Elspode 11-13-2003 09:47 PM

That looks like one of the early composite drawings of the Unabomber.

elSicomoro 11-13-2003 10:34 PM

I thought it was appropriate, given the Nazi picture. Ep knows I'm just giving him shit anyway.

(Besides, I was helping you out, you ol' bastard!)

Elspode 11-13-2003 10:37 PM

Sycamore is ten times the sick comic I'll ever be!

That was pretty choice, Syc. I may have to print them both out and hang them up here at my computer...

Elspode 11-13-2003 10:39 PM

OH...and the Mrs. sez bring lots of cool trinkets. She responds well to nifty little trinkets... :D

elSicomoro 11-13-2003 10:51 PM

*bows* Thank you, thank you. It just seemed...appropriate. :)

Elspode 11-13-2003 10:54 PM

I like to think that I can take at least as good as I give. I just hope Bruce knows it was all in good...well, damn it...good fun - although using a Charles Manson reference for fun might well qualify me for Wolf's services.

lumberjim 11-14-2003 12:28 AM

bruce is the bruciest bruce i think i've ever seen
he's so goddamn brucy i cant believe it
bruciest muthafucka i ever seen

So wait, you're such a cheap bastard that you only have the proofs of your wedding photos? ;)

lumberjim 11-21-2003 02:09 AM

well, I'll not deny being a cheap bastard, but no, wolf I have plenty of the overcharged and paid for type of wedding photos too, just none scanned in to digitalness. they're all beautifully framed and hanging about our palatial mansion.

Hey, while I have you....I saw a thread about Forks party inChadds Ford....do you live in Chadds Ford? I work in Chadds Ford. Am I saying Chadds Ford too much. Christ, I can't stop sayin Chadds Ford...there I go again!
