I love that picture Pookha

Michael Shanks had that hi res picture up for sale on ebay for his charity, which Connor autographed. It went for $250.
I managed to get another one, which I'll try to put up later.

My Goodness that's a big picture of Connor. I remember Persian Mouse posting that picture of Connor.I like it. Hoshi's sis I look forward to seeing your new picture when you post it.

Very nice pictures, everyone. I think this is the first time I've seen the one with the white shirt.

And thanks for the links in the previous thread for those Creation clips with CT and DK. There were some funny moments there -- including when the interviewer mistakenly called the most recent ENT novel something like The Things That Men Do.

Nice pics, but I gotta say the Trip pics are my faves. Connor is a good looking guy but a little too smooth and polished for my taste.

I'll take a humble fella with some engine grease under his nails any day.

smooth and polished? he doesn't shave when he's at conventions!

Good point, but even then it's the stylish 5 o'clock shadow. Maybe it's the shirts? The hat? The occasional glasses? I can't put my finger on it, but most of the time he looks like the guys from Queer Eye dressed and prepped him. The whole loafers without socks look with a retro twist. Vintage shops, a willingness to wear the occasional man-ring, a rainbow assortment of jeans, hats that don't have sports logos on them...

We have seen Trip snazzy as well though: who could forget the Don Johnson suit or tropical "get noticed" getup. Not my cuppa either.

I preferred the Northstar cowboy gear, plain exercise shirt, the (yes) blue jumper, and was strangly turned on by seeing him in the Vulcan outfit. Can't really explain that one to myself yet...must be the robes.

What the heck is wrong with looking good and being confident? And besides he can be a goof...

Connor told this funny story at Shore Leave 2006:

He and Ariana had gone out to dinner with two other couples, (one couple were friends, they hadn't met the other couple before). They got talking about reality shows -- which CT hates -- and he went off about The Apprentice being contrived, citing a particular episode in which the team was supposed to get a singer to Madison Square Garden and they "lost her." He said it wasn't credible that they would have no way of all of locating her -- cellphone, agent's phone number, mom's phone, etc... When he's done, his friend tells him the other couple are the producers of The Apprentice. Ariana starts kicking him under the table. They saw the couple again another time at a party, they wouldn't even look at him!

oh HONEY that cowboy getup? This calls for a cap or two! (courtesy Trekcore)

Goin' my way, lil' lady?
We'll just be ridin' into the sunset now...

Add Val Kilmer going "I'll be your Huckleberreh" and my cowboy fantasy is complete!

Re: Trip in Vulcan robes -- There's just something about those Asian-influenced robes that looks very regal on Trip.

Nothing at all. I have quite a few friends who are quite stylish...though more of the preppy/college look than the vintage scene. Personally, I'm a fashion klutz. Maybe that's why I go for the flannel shirt types.

Or maybe it harkens back to when I first saw Marlon Brando in "A Streetcar Named Desire." Hmmmm....Connor all beefed up in a wifebeater as Stanley. Or sweatin' bullets on a hot, sultry, Southern night as Ben Quick.

Here's a nice beefed up one of Connor that I won.

Isn't that the same shot of him in the Stargate magazine that had his interview in it a year or so ago?

[Leesp]

Scruffy or clean shaven he is too much. He is one of those men that has presence. You can't take your eyes of him.

Here is a pic I have from the his first appearance in SGA.
