"That's Me!" Avatar Week? (Silly idea inside.)

Consider it an altered state.

You have the patience of a saint.

 

I'm a little surprised no one has commented on this yet... and I consider no response to be misbehaving! Did you think that was an idle threat? You were warned.

<---- Behold: me in all my Rocky Horror, cross-dressing glory!

 

You're just a sweet transvestite?

Zion when I can quickly glance at your av...you're quite cute! I just can't look at your av too long because it makes my eyes hurt (the flashing!)

 

^I just can't help humming "Take on me" whenever I see it

 

Awww....

But yeah, sorry about that. I'll slow things down a little in order to avoid a mass epileptic tragedy across the planet.

There.

 

This is the first time I've ever had an avatar on here. I am very orange.

 

I've had that song stuck in my head all day because of him!

 

Inspired by Dale, I have changed mine from a random stormy day self-portrait to my last Borg Sphere and James Tea Kirk, a week before the Experience closed.

 

My work here is done.

 

Okay, I'm playing.

Now everybody will know that I'm not really a gorgeous young blond.

 

Ah, what the heck - I'm in.

Yuck - hate looking at my own photos. I much prefer (and am more used to) being on the other side of the camera - the fun side!

 

Is it bad I had to Google who that was?

 

^ On a Star Trek board, yes!

 

The sweetest!

My illusions are shattered.

 

Curse you and your Norwegian minions!

Doesn't look too bad

But totally understand, I have like a handful of photos of me that I like. And in one of them I'm a toddler. And yes, much more fun to take pics then to be in them!

 

Bad Flukie! -baaad Flukie! go to your bed baaad Flukie!

 

Maybe he just didn't have the time to look it up...

(Sound of crickets chirping)

Anyhow,

Welcome to the party JustKate

 

What Ethros said. You should feel shame.

 

It could be worse. I could've brought back certain Icelandic minions...




But seriously, thining about this now, I was very reluctant to take part, but eventually decided to give it a go. OK, I cheated a little by disguising myself a little further with photo-manip magic masquerading as art, but the idea and general jist remains. Somewhat.

But I'm really glad to see that there are so many real people with real faces out there, especially the ones (like me) who have been extremely photo-shy on the TrekBBS. You all look great. Really, really great.

I was a little giddy with excitement when I did put my picture there at first, and today felt a little worried how others' preconceptions towards myself will have either been changed subtly or shattered completely now that I took the plunge, but now I feel a little more comfortable with showing my face here.

Who knows, I might even keep it.

 

Actually, I'm kinda relieved that I haven't seen it all.
