Stupid tabloid press. Cretins the lot of them.


LOL.

I've been told that she can sing too, though I've never noticed...

I need to get myself a hat like that. Now that I'm growing my hair out, none of my hats fit anymore. :evil:

I came across yet another possibility: Image

Well, since jase left his beloved FC Middlesbrough, and Aviationwiz has ditched his old politicians, it's time to think about a new avatar too. One possibility is to use a flag or coat of arms with personal connotations, as jase has done, and like Aviationwiz has gone back to. This could be
Image . . or . . Image.

At the height of the avatar wars, I prepared this one (mainly to see how CDRecorder would react :wink:):

Image with possible escalation to ... Image ... or ... Image

but after cfitz' classic post, things cooled off a bit and there was no reason to use them. Other possibilities are related to my moniker, like this one Image (I have a few of these stached to use later. :wink:)

Because of a recent astronomical highlight, I'll use a shot of the solar corona I took during the total eclipse of 11 Aug. 1999. I was lucky to get it, because clouds obscured things shortly before totality (and partly during the total phase too):
Image

Neighbouring towns were even worse off because it rained! :evil: Getting a picture through this partially opaque medium was a rare piece of luck.

So, bye bye Image (gypsy medium), hello corona.Image

Hey Ian....."I'm Rick James B*tch!" Funniest Chappelle's show skit yet. Although the R. Kelly takeoff video gives it a run for it's money. I have to smirk every time I see the pic and quote in your sig =D> .

I like her too, but felt a bit uncomfortable with her as an avatar (maybe I'm old fashioned :-?). I found her via google image search (original is here, so maybe you saw her there too).

Actually, I didn't know that this brand exists. :o :oops: The alternate Corona that came to mind was this one:

(Is this Bill Clinton's brand?)

This thread is still going within the last week?!? :o LOL :lol: I was away for so long that I thought I would be reading about 64x, CLV quad-layer DVD writers when I returned. Instead, I find that this thread still lives... :D

Well, I hope everyone is behaving now. Otherwise I'll be forced to send the Avatar Police around to give you a good talking to... :wink:

Of course it's alive, how can we not change our avatars.

I don't know if we're behaving, at least we didn't receive PMs on that subject anymore [-X

Sorry Slim, but I can't send them around to you because you are behaving. BudhaTB, on the other hand... now we can almost always be sure he needs a good talking to... :wink:

While I'm on the subject of behaving, I think it is about time I got rid of that horrible Ashcroft avatar I made a point with. This is much more to my liking:

Thanks. :D I'm a sucker for brunettes in general, and I've always thought Ms. Hepburn was quite beautiful and classy.
