Here's some photos I'm sure you could have lived without! The last two are in .png because .Jpeg tried to eat them. I am full of team spirit. Feel it? OH! Guess which one is me! This was during a 24 hour relay. Meaning, every hour or som I had to run a mile on that blasted track. I prefer cross country though.More nature. ^_^ Hello, guess who's crotch? I don't even know. I don't know who's head that is either. I have a general idea of who is looming over me. You don't know him.^_^ but, nonetheless, I am sitting in downtown Grand Rapids with my friends at an event called "Blues on the Mall" and yes there is a band playing the blues but the mall is gone. For some reason, it attracts about every goth/punk within a square mile, and they sit right around where the road is blocked off and play hackey sack. This is the place where both a homeless guy and a lesbian couple said I was cute. Fun times. And for today, I leave you with a picture of me drawing a comic the way I always do. Do I not look miserable? That is because I cracked my rib, and I am miserable. And no, that isn't makeup, I am really that pale. I'm not even wearing lipstick but sucking the blood of morta...err,yeah they are red. In the foreground is CTV tome numer 3. As in, that one was outgrown eventually, and replaced with a bigger folder. I'm on version 5 right now. That is all the original, crappilly hand-scribbled stuff I did (don't doubt me, it really is, I didn't care at the time) I'm also wearing the jacket I die in when Charby gets me in my own comic. ("Chivalry:dead, but twitching" that is) I did a color sample on another one of my pics and found out Charby and I are almost the same color 0_o Now that youse have all seen these horrible pictures, I hope you are instilled with confidence! If I can post these embarrassing things that is....

I look like a raccoon! I hadn't slept yet in that photo either, I remember that well enough. Every time I tried to lay down there was intense pain.

Nice hat there, Shippo. It reminds me of that Charby ad banner, that named all the things in the comic, including the "cool hats". Anyway, I really don't have any high-quality pictures of myself, so here's some webcam fun. I think this is the best picture, even though I look like I am in pain. It's pretty recent, too. You can see how ridiculously long my hair is. This is the only recent photo on my laptop where I am smiling. It's probably about six months old, or more. That's my ex-girlfriend sitting on me.

uhm I don't want to seem to eager to show myself off or anything... I actually think this might help me get used to the idea of posting and talking to everyone... for some reason I have more trouble talking to people who haven't seen my face than people who have.... and I don't mind the world seeing my blemished face! uhm so yeah ... pictures of me.... this is more recent as in yesterday....

*gulp* well actually I caught my friend accidentilly give away the fact that he both read this forum and knew who I was. I was talking vaguley about talking on the internet, dropping clues in a self important way (I dont really think anyone cares, im just arrogant) and he accidentally said something that proved the previous points, and then it was all like *suspicious glance* and *suspicious glance*. And I realised how many years of secretism was riding on this.

Aww don't worry Rehiro I certainly don't mind if you wish to remain anonymous, I figured I'd just post my goofy pictures because everyone knows what I look like already anyway. Except I think I was blurrier in past pictures...found out that pngs look better anyhow (but they tend to be huge files) Like I said it doesn't have to be just pictures of yourself, anything that you find interesting or amusing and pics you think say "you" the best will be fine. I'm probably gonna post pictures of my ferrets here and if I can get a good picture, the nice pumpkin-vine circle that is taking over my back yard. Beware, this picture may frighten you depending on how long it takes to load. My friends are being goofy. Or their version of normal... It looks like I'm seated next to a 3 headed monster! I'm posting this because my friends don't come into the forum apparently. So I can post whatever I want of them whahahaha! I honestly don't think they care. This picture amuses me. But this is at a theater where I got to meet Bruce Campbell and see the movie he made. The only thing that has changed since this photo is the fellow in the back has slightly more hair and the fellow next to me has less beard. And it is all for the better! I'm wearing the pants I mentioned once that can hold about four 2-liter bottles of soda. 2 to each pocket! I'm sure more, the pockets go all the way to past my knees. And my eyes are looking mighty red there, but it's because of the contact lenses. If I don't look at the camera they are blue. I am so white....

haha, how did you know it was cold in there? ^_^ I loves those pants though, my other favorite pants have tried to kill me several times, as in, I was running for the bus stop on a windy day and the pants were light material so one pantleg wrapped around my other leg and I went down. I probably whined about it in one of my author's notes, without a doubt. Oh and that is a mighty fine selection of hats you have! I have one floppy black hat (wearing it now in fact) that can take the form of different hats. I plan to snap a pic of each one (It can go from beret to tricorner to pointy witch hat to bucket hat etc. but I prefer to have it set to "bowler hat" ^_^)

I'm not sure which link you use to show an image on a forum, so this might not work: This is me when I was 18 (1983) This is when I was about 22 or 23. This was when I was 25 or 26. Then I don't have any pictures of myself for a long time (tons of kid pix instead) until I was in college: This is when I was 36. I still look pretty much the same now, but when I tried to get one of my kids to take a picture yesterday, they all were awful so that's as recent as I'm getting! (I'm 40 now) I'm really glad so many of you also showed pictures of yourselves...it makes me feel like I know you better! I'll try to get a decent picture taken to post.

I don't really have any pics apart from one I took with an online friend who drove down to see me. It was a few years ago and I had recently gotten over a cold... and I was growing my hair back after cutting it down to an inch, so my head looked like an auburn easter egg. >.<
I wish I had my fro pictures. My hair turns into a gigantic fro if I brush it out dry. XD

Eh. They're really old and nasty, but I might as well post 'em... *twitch* That second picture really bothers me. *twitch* Somebody caught me at some awkward expression between a smile and a "I will kill you for taking this picture". And, yes, that is my real hair color. Just saying so, cuz most people assume it's dye. 9___9

I really see the resemblance to your chibi, even though it's such a cartoonish interpretation. Most people tend to look completely different in real life.
Who's that psych ward escapee you seem to be around so much?

Please, no one should feel embarassed about their pictures! I don't like most pictures of myself either, I think that is normal. Just like no one wants to hear their voice on tape. I'm sure they are not as bad as you think!

It's now a little shorter (I tend to wear it down, just spiked it up for fun here) my-little-pony silvery-blueish (not how it was supposed to turn out, but meh.) and I shaved off the plaits (they were annoying me)

I have no problem with how I look. I just don't like my hair length then... I would have liked to post a new one, if I had it. No, I'm fairly content with my looks since I don't really care much for the opinions of people at my school. Why wouldn't my chibi look like me? It's a cartoony chibi of ME. 0o'
The other girl is my friend, Chelle. She's an online friend who came to visit me. She had those pictures taken during the visit, obviously.
HA! You can see the outline of my lucky necklace in the last picture!

Interesting hair, Ufy. I love weird hair.
And Nein, after seeing several real-life pictures of authors who have characters named after them, I began to expect the unexpected.

I think you look great Ufy! I wish I could show some pictures of myself when I had a similar style, but my beat friend at the time ran off with the photo albums, and now he's living in England.
*Edited for spelling*

You look like your avatar, too! (except for the vomit and the Xes for eyes)
