Well, ive been thinking, everyone knows each other jolly well on MSE OS... isnt it about time we all know what each other looks like?!

SomersetPrincess and i swapped links to pictures and its lovley to put a face to the person you know so well on line.

I mean we often tell other OS-ers stuff we wouldnt tell anyone else.

Feel free to include OH/DD/DS/MIL/SIL etc :D
I'll get this started.....

    Well, I would if I could, but me scanners knackered and I don't have access to a digital camera seeing as the one I borrowed has been borrowed back by the rightful owner at the mo. :)

    However, I think it's quite funny to visualise the person, then see if you're right. Hmm, didn't have you looking like that ancasta. However, I have seen a fairly recent pic of squeaky and it's actually spot on as to what i thought he would look like, even down to the colour of hair. Is that scary or is squeaks an 'easy target'?

    So, what do I look like then? :D

    ps the avatar is NOT me :D:D:D

    Hope I do this right...

    This is Henry, my wee !!!!! cat who came to me as a starving waif about seven years ago. I was just about to move house when he started visiting and stealing my other cats food. He was so skinny and unhealthy, and so obviously homeless, that I couldn't bear to leave him behind. He matured into the most gorgeous boy. Isn't he sexy!?!

    And this is Tabitha. She is 17, ex-RSPCA - got her when she was seven. Nobody else wanted her because at seven she was considered "old". She's v.bossy but v.gentle, and she likes eating.

    I much prefer to be behind the camera. Most people have a picture of my hand rather than my face. I'll see if I can find something tomorrow and post that....

    JW1096 - your kitty is absolutely beautiful!!

    And I haven't got the foggiest idea how to do it anyway even though I have a digital camera and a scanner :D

    It's v.easy! If I can do it....

    Have a look at SRA's A-Z of technical wizardry and magic under P for Picture:
    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=35717
    The man is a genius, knows everything...

    The most straightforward way (IMO) is to use the https://www.tinypic.com site as outlined by SRA. Give it a go!

    Yours are too SnowyOwl!! Your Boy is very Handsome, grown up very well! Tabitha looks really wise too, like an owl! I love cats! They are just the greatest creatures ever! I love their little quirks, and the way they are so pleased to see you!

    I saw a stray the other week, which depressed me a little, as I inteded to rescue him but he ran away, even though he appeared to be freindly and let me get really close to him. A lovely little boy he was with a completely grey face. He needed some looking after though, really scrawny and patchy and needed to give himself a good bath. I went to get a box and called boyf as I didnt have my car with me and I could bring him home, but when I returned he's gone. We drove around for an hour looking for him, but he'd just gone. I felt awful about that for a while, I just hope he got rescued at some point. I'd have loved another kitty too, I think my girl could use some company, she has us around most of the time, but I sometimes feel she needs someone as quick as her to chase around and stuff!

    On that note, im off to bed!

    oh well i suppose you all could do with a laugh - do you want me with my traditional "trout face" as OH calls it when I'm thinking or all enigmatic? I'll put my late budgie keith on as well (mainly because I've already got a piccy of him scanned and possibly derek - if he stays still long enough to have his piccy taken......... i keep meaning to put my avatar on - i want to upload the cover of ultravox's rage in eden (from whence the name) but keep forgetting..........
    But I'm going to say this once, and once only, Gene. Stay out of Camberwick Green :D
