yea, i've always placed him around the same age as cheese or luna, roughly
So is Cheese the same age as Luna? And how do you know? Cheese, I know you're still in (presumably) middle or high school. But with Luna, are we talking about age or use of language?
Yes, I'm still in my final year of high school, which is ages 12-16 over here. Next year I'm off to college, which is for ages 16-18.
Dear god im the same age as cheese
I always thought he was a year or two older than me but i am also in my final year of "highschool" or secondary school as we call it in the uk, although i've just started the final year so that may give an explanation us both being in it dispite a year or two age gap.
Sorry for sounding noobish but how do I put my picture on here? Do I have to put it onto the Gallery or something like that or is it simpler than that?

If it's already hosted somewhere online, Right click on it, select "Copy Image Location", start a reply, hit the Image button above the message box(or use [ img] [/ img] around the pasted addy with no spaces), paste the copied item, click Image again.
Should look like: [ img] image address [/ img] (no spaces in the codings)
If it's not hosted anywhere yet, host it on any non-Dakka hosting site than do the same as above.

Ok thanks for the help. I don't have time to do it now but I can get it done tomorrow.

If these pics dont work dont have a go at me as these are my first images uploaded
Good lord, do any of you white folks know there's a huge glowing ball in the sky that will make you less pasty if you would just spend more than a few seconds exposed to it?
I can't recall if there's any other photos of me on Dakka.
But this is my current Facebook one, and it's one of my favorites. It's from an early-ish Halloween party and contrary to popular belief...I was 100%, absolutely and completely sober.

Or are you being a very naughty?
Most clubs in the U.S have a no smoking policy,however there are still a few bars (mostly privately owned) in wich you can still have a beer,a shot and a ciggarette....as god intended
Yeah i agree with you slappy, i dont even smoke and i dont like the smell on my clothes, but im a libertarian and i think that if you want to have a cigarette with your pint you should be allowed!
I hate how we always seem to side with the rampant lefties. If an old man wants to suck his pipe in his local he should be fething allowed. If you dont like smoke, dont go to pubs and dont work in one.
And this from a none smoker! Know why? Cos im not a fething hypocrite. They have been smoking in pubs for hundreds of years so i figure... feth it, they were there first!
Yeah, but people have done other stupid and destructive things for hundreds or thousands of years, too. That doesn't by itself constitute a good argument for continuing.
I will say that the last few times I've been in nightclubs (since the smoking ban in Boston) have been weird without the smoke. I kind of miss it, even though I'm no longer inured to it.
I'll be posting something soon... assuming I can get my Grade 10 formal photos off my friend (trust me, I look a lot better in my suit and lilac tie than in my very loose t-shirts).
Me, a few months ago. I'm kind of blocking it, but behind me on the right is my favorite piece of nerd swag, a wall scroll of the main characters of Case Closed (Detective Conan in Japan).
Here's me fairly recently, holding my dog Bandit on my lap as I lay on the couch. My other dog (Gizmo) is off to my right, out of the frame.
This is the picture I currently use as my cell phone's wallpaper. About a month ago or so, I got obsessed with the Phoenix Wright series of games, so this is me performing a Phoenix Wright "Objection!". (Oh, and right below my arm is the poster of the four Dawn of War II races that I got for buying a CD copy of the game. Go me.)
Me not far from Jigoku-dani, half a mountain away from Nagano Japan. Bathing monkeys, considering I slogged through 4 feet of snow up a trail to get there, I was wishing I was in the water too.
Edit: I gave up trying to import it. Clicky the linky.

Drunken dare? Just kidding. I lived in Asia for about 7 years, 3 of which were in Japan. Saw a special on discover or something about the monkeys and though "heck I have a few days off" (it was winter break at the time and I was teaching at a high school). Grabbed a buddy and we jumped on a bullet train to nagano.
Getting there was almost more of an adventure than seeing the monkeys.
It took:
1 bullet train
1 city subway ride
1 country train ride
1 bus ride
1 ski-lift ride
1 45 minute hike down a mountain, into a valley, and half-way up another mountain.
Finally got there, thus the tired WTF look on my face.
@Sadetta131: The correct format for posting a pic is [ img ] picture url [ /img ] (without the spaces; I only included them so that the format would show up) rather than using the file name.
That's an awesome pic, DLS. Your youthful sense of wonder shines through, indeed overpowers, this ostensible Black Metal business you insist upon. (Don't tell him, but when I first watched the qotpa intro, I though Kenny was a tomboyish lass.)
It's me! I hunted through facebook, there weren't that many pics I felt I could use - I think the fact I'm singing enthusiastically in this one is fairly appropriate. I'll put another one up that looks more normal when I get one... And I *really* miss that hat.
*edit* I'm the guy in the middle, by the way. If I was the pretty lady I'm sure you'd have all twigged by now...
+*edit 2* does anyone else feel not metal enough for this forum after looking at other people's pics?
Oh, very well Manchu. Now, since I am posting, Dogma should as well...
I am on the right:
Yes, I own and wear a tweed suit...
And that was me at some sorority formal, and yes the tux does have coattails!
When people allude to the fact that I haven't been playing this game very long I like to think about the stupid old white dwarf posters in my room. I have the tech posters from the release of the new pred and land raider too. God I need to tear that crap down, I haven't live in that room for years.
For some reason its nice to put faces to names, its weird that you seem to paint a picture of what people look like in your head.
Shuma for example, i expected to have a permenant grimace from all the arguing, you look much more placid than i would have expected.
And Jeb, i dont know why, i just figured you were older, its cos your either very sensible and mature or i am very immature.. i fear it may be both. I have to congratulate you on your Tweed suit though mate, thats fething brilliant.
Holy feth. I'm not sure we should go to any more festivals together. I have a feeling that the Dakka UK meet-up later this year could end up like this.

Dude, I am only 22, but most people swear that I must be like 70 Thanks for the compliments on my clothing style, although I might be a bit young to wear it as casually as I do I swear I was born an old Englishman!
Deff Dread red Edition wrote:Quite a few of you look a lot younger than I had expected you to be(Dogma and Jeb specifically).
You people keep saying that! Did you guys really think I was that old, or that Dogma was equally as old?
@All you haters: I am happy But that is for a number of reasons...drink not being the least of all
I thought both you and Dogma were equally old or at least close in age, mind you I didn't think either of you were overly old. I was thinking 30-35, it just surprised me that your 22. Perhaps it is the tone of your posts that convey such ideas.
And I agree on the sun thing. I thought nerds were suppose to live in dungeons and not have any friends/family/girlfriends/wives. Whats the friggin deal here? Dont we have a reputation to uphold?
Yeah, let's all just forget about family/friends/school/work and stay here on Dakka till our hearts explode and our brains blow up like popcorn.
I vote for no more happy pics. Anyone who posts a pic MUST HAVE glasses and be fat and nerdy. I'll start:
Sorry about the fat part. I was too lazy to photoshop myself. The glasses are real though
Ill take a photo of Gwar for you lads im going to the august meet. If he is Chambers however, i may have to pass as i know some of the pasty sad fethers who frequent this site have some sort of bizarre hatred for the people that make the game that we all love and i dont want to get torn apart in the melee! :-)
Just twigged what this thread is about... here is me in all of my receding hairline glory (taken about two years ago, so you can probably knock off another inch or so)

Yeah... we sure wouldn't want Gwar to be hated by people on DakkaDakka. That would be awful.

Enough Gwar!-related spam. Post a "what does ye olde trolle looke like?" thread and let's get back to business here. Alpharius, are you up yet? Where's Kilkrazy? Those of you who've already gone, become repeat offenders! Like so . . .
Anybody else think iz a kitty could be GES's sister?
My airsoft kit. "Heavy" loadout. Only thing that isn't authentic is the SCAR-L, and the Glock 18 which you can't see Airsoft guns. Way better than the lowest bidder gak they made me wear in the army. Still can't believe I lost those Oakleys...
Me wishing I was an oil baron. I'm allowed to, cause I'm from Texas, can ride a horse, and have shot a revolver. :p Banana Republic suit/clothes, hat from an outfitter in Austin, belt as a gift from my dad.
Wish I could post some of the others, but I've not got permission from the other folks in them,
I found one of the images that I did the vector portrait from (I look angry!). Uploadin!
That pic is nerd-punk awesome.

This was me trying to show off my guitar (it really is gorgeous) with a webcam. Unless I happen to be doing something important I am violently camera-shy so not alot of pics to choose from.
Oh jeez, that sounded way more depressing than intended.
You guys have similar noses and mouths but now tat GES posted his latest pic, I see the chins are really nothing a like. It probably did have more to do with the B&W as well.
@FITZZ: Genetics are the only thing that can explain an attractive girl playing 40k. Or (mad) science. Or both.
Hmmm.....I beleive there is an inside reference I am missing here.
A reference to Assassin's Creed. You resemble the main character, Altair, with your hood on over your eyes like that (And not wanting your face to be seen).
Thanks for the explanation. I have yet to play Assassins Creed seeing as how I am not the biggest video game aficionado. So the reference went over my head.
Shuma thats the second time youve posted a pic in the past few months and you still aint smiled. Is it cos your doing the whole Posh Spice thing or because you argue with everyone?
Why is it the camera only seems to come out when I'm absolutely trousered? I searched and searched, and the last picture of myself taken when sober was from last summer, whilst on holiday in Spain!
Here's me, looking giddy, stupid and...well...like I usually look.
That picture makes me look too YOUNG! It doesn't show my acne scars or lines! (I had horrible acne up until six months ago.)
Oh wait...forgot the picture....here's me as of 2 minutes, 34 seconds ago. (Is it just me or do my eyes look like black pits in that pic? And I look a little...flushed.)

Oddly enough, Chesseelemental, Lunahound, Gwar, and H.B.M.C havnt posted a pic yet (that dosnt count gwar). MAYBE they are actually the same person!
Because Cheese is a little kiddy Luna is a Girl and thus is not permitted to put a Family Friendly photo on the interwebs, as per the roolz of the internets. H.B.M.C is actually a cloud of sentient hatred caused by the 4th Edition Chaos Marine codex. And I am, well, Ugly :(

I still picture Gwar! as a "project". Probably all neckbeard and bushy eyebrows, but if he was clean shaven, got a nice haircut, and trimmed the eyebrows he would rival a Christian Bale or Hugh Jackman.
I don't know how anyone can be convinced that there are girls around here. Aside from Luna and Morgrim, of course. The others seem to be occasional posters at best and drop-in-drop-outs more often.
I saw this thread pop up in my subscribed threads, saw my pictures on the front page and it reminded me of how long I've been on here. So here's an update.
Switched to the night program in school, takes longer but I make straight A's now.
Broke up with the woman, been dating around.
My friend Melissa sucks at setting I.V.s and my hair is too short.
After reachig a ridge while hiking, I stopped to give my best Titanic pose.
Yeah, Thread Necro. This thread is too much fun to let die.
Oh. My. Gods.
I thought we looked similar before, but you seriously look like my clone in a few years in these pictures. Colour me scared. :Fauntleroy is struck by epic fear:

Wait, didn't Shadowbrand mention something about Little Lord Faunterly, you and I being clones of Shadow himself? With each of us representing different attributes of Shadowbrand. So that must, mean we all look like Shadowbrand. "gulp"

From the pics I've seen of Shadowbrand, we don't actually look much like each otehr at all. But I've always been terrible with faces, so we might and i just don't realise it.
