SHMUPS Picture Week IX: Change your avatar and show yourself

Post by Herr Schatten »

It's safe to say that the annual Picture Week is one of the finest traditions of our little forum. It's always been tons of fun, with last year's Picture Week thread proving particularly popular. So let's get ready for another round, shall we?

For members, who haven't been around during previous Picture Weeks, here's the deal: Change your avatar to a picture of yourself and leave it that way until the end of next week (or as long as you desire). Alternatively (or additionally), post a picture of yourself in this thread.

Here are the previous seven picture week threads for reference (the first one got lost in the forum crash, unfortunately):
SHMUPS Picture Week 8
SHMUPS Picture Week 7
SHMUPS Picture Week 6
SHMUPS Picture Week 5
SHMUPS Picture Week 4
SHMUPS Picture Week 3
SHMUPS Picture Week 2

Come on, don't be shy. Show the world your handsome faces.

Already me, but I will change it this evening to a new one.

I love this thread every year. It's interesting to see the faces behind the posters.

Whoa it was unintentional, but my avatar looks like I'm peeking through a little window in your monitor at you.

CHI was in this image and I cropped him out in case he didn't want to be featured. Before anyone asks, considering our relative positions, we were indeed shagging in the middle of a Chinese karaoke night in front of several male spectators.

If you don't know what game is playing on the screen at this point I have nothing to say to you.

Hairbrush is for hitting things when I fuck up. And brushing my hair.

Damn Tim, you know there are quite a few Americans out there who still lives in tents due to this shitty economy, and you're dropping loads on a single game which only last 20 min. Do you think it's fair? How much did you spend this time?

Crappy photo from a year and a half ago, don't have recent pics. Me on the left, playing Super Turbo. I miss that pad.

Probably because it takes little to no effort to maintain, and doesn't look half-bad :lol:
