King, can you please resize your photos before posting them? You're killing my web browser here; I hate having to scroll horizontally.

Yeah, I was really surprised at how diverse everyone here looks. Nobody really looks very nerdy at all. We all have active, healthy lives! Very Happy

You got decked out like that for your prom? That is just all kinds of awesome.

The best part was having random people come up to me and ask for a picture, then yelling "FLAVOR FLAAAAAAV!" And see those gloves? That's not part of the costume, I wear those almost every day.
Still, looking at that picture, can you wonder why I went to prom dateless?

How's that for you?

I would've used a better picture, but this was the only one I could find of me interacting with another human being. I'm on the right. This picture was taken last October, so not only does my hair not suck quite as much now as it used to, but my hands are no longer a different skin tone as my face.
(Note: This pic was taken during Honors English. Pretty sneaky, sis.)

Wow!

1. You look gay.
2. Why is your friend going at you with nail files? Confused

3. I was kidding about the first one. Don't hurt me.

1. I don't wear that shirt anymore. (If that's what you're referring to.)
2. It was quite a while back...I'm pretty sure we had to make "covers" for these personal interviews we had to write about each other, and this was for the other guy's cover.

EDIT:
3. Don't worry about it. Cool

That's me winning a musical basketball chairs game at halftime of the CMU WMU basketball game about three years ago. Got fifty bucks in gift certificates.

That's me on the left being the best damn Chris Farley wanna-be.

This is my "4 AM at the desk playing with photo booth cyclops picture"

And that is a normal picture. Or so you think.

Oh, wow, you go to CMU. Small world. If you noticed, my pics are from my party there. I don't go there, I was supposed to but things changed. I still might finish my BA there.

Indeed. The normalcy of the people on here is somewhat inspiring. Well i guess not normal,(normal is boring) but its cool to see that the forumers have contact with friends outside the internet.

how dare you call me normal.

So you go to a fellow MAC school, Shut up, Dorn?

NIU FTW here.

Random shot:

Me posing for a poster for a game at NIU (Humans vs. Zombies):

Me with my frat brothers and sisters (I'm next to the black kid...a tragic aside: my sister standing above me in this photo was one of the victims of the NIU St. Valentine Day's shooting)

And since aika says we get double points for puppies...

That's my Chewie. Half-Husky, half-Retriever, all fur.

Ha, in the very same section you quoted I retracted the normal. Your certainly not normal, but you have friends. But if it's a gunfight you want, I'll bring my six loaded with one, cuz that's all I'll need. Cool

Enshin: you look just like one of my buddies, except maybe a bit younger. I'm going to dig around and see if I can't find a picture of him. Uncanny.

Ok... I have added all of the photos posted (of individuals... no pets or pics of just friends) to the Sydapedia.

It took a fucking long time and I probably won't do it again.

There were 73 images that needed to be resized, uploaded, and entered.

You can see yourselves and each other here:

http://history.sydlexia.com/index.php?title=Forumer_Gallery

(To conserve space all images were compressed as JPG and were downsized to a maximum of 640x480, all 70+ images should take less than 2.5mb)

Hopefully in the future you can all upload your own images Smile

Thats just some wishful thinking.

That's also assuming they want to put the images on the forumer gallery.

You're awesome, GP Very Happy

I meant to add somewhere in the first post that any photos posted of oneself in this thread were fair game for the Forumer Gallery, but I kinda forgot. I assume everyone would have assumed that already, though.

If you want people to upload their own pictures in the future, you gotta teach us how.
