I know, but I'm too lazy for that...

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 07-06-2008, 01:35 PM

I have finally gotten off of my butt and e-mailed a picture of myself to Volo... I hope it's not too scary looking though...

Volo · 07-14-2008, 03:07 AM

TGEW and Fea updated - sorry for the waiting and lack of personal reply.

No worries. Thanks.

Groin Redbeard · 07-15-2008, 01:11 PM

Wow, you look just like I imagined you TGEW (except that you don't have brown hair)!

Yes I do, it's just very dark...

Nobody believes me!

And thanks Volo!

Are you sure that it is infact you in that photo GreatElvenWarrior ?

It is quite far from the image I have of you in my head. . . . .but then again if you had to live up to that, you'd have to be kind of blury.

Yes, that is me! Just to think, you've been talking to an irresponsible 14 year old girl all this time. And I think a while back I was described very well in the How Do You Imagine other BDers thread... But I think I'm glad I don't live up to your image... I don't think I want to be blurry...
This is like an uncloaking...

Kitanna · 07-30-2008, 09:43 PM

I was just going through the photo page for the first time in months and I was shocked at how much Rune looks like my friend/band section leader. It's eerie, all Rune needs is a beard and a bottle of Jack Daniels and I'd never be able to tell the difference.

Normally I do have a beard. . . .

but I think Jack D is an awful Whiskey, I mostly drink Redbreast (not that I drink that much Whiskey)

Gwathagor · 08-09-2008, 04:42 PM

Ha ha. Nice picture, Groin. MANLY.

Groin looks like a kid that goes (or used to) go to my school... That's weird... Groin looks better though.

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-13-2008, 06:52 AM

With a mass of thanks to Thenamir, today I recived this magnificent thing...

Thought I'd post this picture here.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 08-13-2008, 07:14 AM

Hookbill how do you manage to change appearances at will? In one picture you look like you are in your mid-twenties and in another you look like you are 12 years old.

I blame the government.

In answer to your question... I've never noticed. I suspect it's the regeneration...

Gwathagor · 08-13-2008, 09:41 AM

Regeneration...ha ha.

Kath · 08-13-2008, 10:08 AM

Not regeneration, then you'd look completely different. The pictures are clearly just catching you at different moments as you pop up throughout time and space.

Volo · 08-13-2008, 11:06 AM

Alatar, Nilp and Gwath updated.

Thinlómien · 08-13-2008, 11:13 AM

What is Nilp doing??

Groin Redbeard · 08-13-2008, 12:16 PM

I say, Gwathagor, nice touch with the rifles! Much more manly than my picture is.

Gwathagor, you look like you're sitting out on the front lawn, making sure those kiddies stay out of your yard.

Just took a look at the pics there.

Hookbill and Eomer look like hobbits and Gwath seems to be the great white hunter...

Thanks. I was on ground squirrel duty that day.

And thanks, Volo, for updating.

Oddwen · 08-13-2008, 07:46 PM

And with an illegal kettle I see. *tsk tsk tsk*

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 08-13-2008, 08:42 PM

Hookbill, you look rather dashing in that picture, you know!
What sort of tea is that?

Quite an interesting picture, Nilp... Though I don't know what to say other than that...

Oh, vzv, Lommy, I was supposed to be jumping off the ground but the camera caught me with one foot still in it, hehe.

Poor ground squirrels! I love them! Especially feeding them in National Parks where it clears says "Do Not Feed the ground squirrels"!

Anyway, do you think I should submit my picture? I don't know if I qualify, I don't post much, and almost never on "serious" threads.

Those squirrels stole my apple at the Grand Canyon! They just marched right on up to me as bold as brass and took my apple right from my hands. Every one of those varmints deserve the death sentence!

C'mon Laurinquë! There are no qualifications. The Barrow Downs photo page is no "meet our most honourable members in the order of their significance and history of this site" -page. It's where you give us others a face we can put into our minds while reading your posts whatever they are.

Btw. I finally sent a pic of me to the photo page. I look like a maniac there but if you click the whole picture it miraculously softens and starts to look more lenient...

That pic is taken by Rune at our summer cottage less than a month ago and I guess it ended the last page. So the next one will open a new page!

Who's first on the next page?!?

Lindale · 09-01-2008, 10:13 AM

If ever I decide to put my Malay face into that page of Caucasians, how should I do it? And... well, will anybody want to see it anyway?

Don't tell her that, she's a bit of a tree-hugger...

I think that Lauri should post a picture of herself on the photo page because I really want to know what she looks like!

Send it to Volo... he handles and updates the photo-page.

We have a Czech proverb - I am not sure what the etymological origins are and it would really interest me - that somebody looks like "an owl from (or of) noodles". (I don't even know if it's meant the way that the owl is made from noodles, or that it looks out of a pile of noodles. Probably the latter, though.) But I think maybe it might fit you on this picture

Nah, it's an okay pic
