Y'see, when I saw this thread with one post, I thought, "I could take the mick here and post something odd, like a picture *not* of me." But then I thought it inconsiderate...

This is the difference between me and you guys

I do not have a picture on the web right now (lie)

So, using various images from the web, I've compiled a pretty accurate composite of what I do, in fact, look like.

Yeah, those teeth are scaled down quite a bit, I almost puked when I saw the original, apparently that's from tobacco use, go figure right.

Anyway, when the acidic curds crowned atop my esophagus, that's when I new those were the teeth for MY portrait.

Note: If anyone posts their pic who appears to be too young, the mods will remove the post and perhaps lock the thread if it gets out of hand. Let's be intelligent, people!

Here's my old grad pic (from '98). It was a long time ago but I don't look much different

Since Indi looks worse than I currently do (due to looking smashed, and I'm not), I'll post me note the time: 1:28

Me: http://dbgamezone.com/pulse/Pictures/Picture%202.jpg
and my money: http://dbgamezone.com/pulse/Pictures/Picture%203.jpg

I actually look worse than I usually do

Blame the guys on IRC for my post.
Im the one with the long hair, shots taken about a year ago with my webcam when I had a friend of mine, Alex, over and we basically just wrapped up in duvets for a week and played games nonstop (hes playing phantasy star online there) only leaving our duvets to grab more food/beer and answer the phone to nature

Ah, good times.

Alright, like Seph there, mnem pressured me into it (thanks bald guy!). Here's the me (not really a Wendigo or Sturgeon):



It's a bit small as I am suffering from a bit of a skin condition at the moment (and don't want you guys seeing it in detail), and no, this time it's not acne .

It's amazing! We now all know what jimmy looks like.

mnem, the sturgeon thing is a character choice. I feel it represents who I am. I == TheSturgeon; I'd get all philophical and stuff, but this is all balogna anyways.

What have we learnt from this thread?

Let me summarise:

1. Jimmy is a lot more normal-looking than anyone would have expected or predicted

2. Mnem resembles Peter Kay

3. Indi looks very Australian and has a slight "surfer dude" thing going on

4. VanB is worryingly normal.

5. Just about everyone except Jeku looks like a geek (me included). And proud of it.

Hehe, that footballer dude does'nt look very much like me really.

One thing I have noticed is the destinct lack of total freaks and fatties - I mean has anyone checked out the pics from the codersworkshop convention? (they ate Blitzcoder) - it's like 1 cute girl (trying so damn hard to be Avril, you'd like her Jimmy, I'll fetch a pic in a moment) and 20 people you would'nt let in your house staring at her .
