Ok I've relented and replaced the 'comedy' one with my mug, (though it could be argued to still be a comedy shot )

As it was taken by my girlfriend with her whisper *D300*, it means ive surreptitiously got a nik*n pic on here - oops

That's the trouble when we have the camera - no or few shots of ourselves - I sometimes take a beanbag if I'm on a walk so if there's some suitable scenery I sometimes use the 10 sec delay to get a picture of me and the scenery - my kids often want me to send them a photo of me!!

That's how I got the one for my avatar!
On a dark desert highway, cool Pentax K5 in my hand.

Don't think I've got any pics of me. Other than a really poor, closely cropped one which is not suitable.

I might get one this weekend, if you are unlucky.
Getting there! Thanks to you guys

My god John, what have you started?

It's Friday night(in the UK!) and the pubs are open, heaven knows what's going to turn up now?

Please, remember that your(our?) reputation is at stake now!

By the way Hyram, I've got a hat like that.

Scary huh?

I will get into the spirit of things.

I have very few pics of myself, and this was the best I could find.

Just on my previous avatar, I am a little surprised I wasn't told to remove it for copyright reasons. It's my avatar, from a well known online poker site which I frequent.

What an action!

Now I have to read the names carefully - I am not sure with whome I am talking.
I hope that most of you put back your avatars Its much more comfy.
To my mind the avatars tell sth about persons as well. And maybe this sth is more important than the outlook ?!
We can make an forum theme with portraits for JR instead.
