Hey guys, how are you? Welcome to the new photo thread.

Come in, sit down. Good to see you.

We're gonna try something a little different this time around. This time it's ok to talk in here, so long as it's about the photos. If people start going off on tangents or dropping into little one on one conversations about stupid shit then that's pretty annoying. We don't want that. So long as this thread stays about photos of you and (non-creepy) conversations about what's going on in the photos everything is a-ok.

Some guidelines for newer people/reminders for regulars:
- Photos have to include you in it. No posting random funny pictures; that's what the Pointless thread is for. (Thanks to Joe for reminding me about this one)
- If the first thing you do when you join the forum is post in here a lot (ie: more than one photo-post per page) then people might get annoyed with you. Let us get to know you a little first!
- Also, while photodumps are kind of cool if they are about you doing something interesting, please keep it to one or two pics per post.
- Please don't be creepy in this thread. Giving someone a well-intentioned compliment is one thing, but generally bar posting porn being a total sleaze in this thread is the quickest way to get yourself banned.
- No posting of violence-related material such as guns, knives etc in here please.

I think that about covers it.

Dang dude and here I was about to post a photo of me flying through a window, holding a sword, guns blazing and totally going down on a dude.

Fine, I'll post a "safe" picture.

I stole this from Yelley because it is awesome.

Also, NEW HAIR! (Yes, this is in the haircut thread, but it can go here too.)

redglasscurls · « **Reply #3 on:** 29 Jun 2008, 09:25 »

Photos are indeed pretty cool!
I have been spending an inordinate amount of time in trees lately

Drill King · « **Reply #4 on:** 29 Jun 2008, 10:54 »

So I had prom

(I love lincolns)

And I got my tickets for a really rad music festival that I am SUPER pumped for

Yeah, that's right, I was saving pictures up.

Slick · « **Reply #5 on:** 29 Jun 2008, 11:12 »

I would totally do everyone in this thread.

At the same time.

(Sorry Drill King and maybe Manda I don't know you guys too well but this is really a joke and Squiddy I hope it is OK with you too everyone else I hope you are not offended that I am not apologizing for maybe being creepy towards you)

...

I am pondering complex systems of weights and balloons on mobiles. I really wish they had gotten pictures of me building our lego trebuchet, that was so sweet.

Drill King · « **Reply #6 on:** 29 Jun 2008, 11:20 »

There is no offense taken.

Also, do you bic your head? Or is it waxed or something? Because damn that's a hairless head.

redglasscurls · « **Reply #7 on:** 29 Jun 2008, 11:30 »

Shhh, he has the cancer

She's right though, that must take a lot of maintenance to keep so clean shaven!

ps, of course there is no offense taken

I just want to say that is a most rad picture. I love watering cans and the old.

Johnny C · « **Reply #12 on:** 29 Jun 2008, 12:47 »

Woah, it's modern Paul!

pwhodges · « **Reply #13 on:** 29 Jun 2008, 12:51 »

I got fed up with being monochrome all the time...

It's still five years ago, though.

BrittanyMarie · « **Reply #14 on:** 29 Jun 2008, 15:34 »

I played in a park the other day. It was super fun!

Hello again photothread, it is nice to see you. Linds, your hair looks so rad and cute.

New corset woo!

Also, I'm such a tourist. Did this already get posted somewhere? I don't even remember.

Good to see a more modern you, Paul. Although the B+W photos were nice and all I was beginning to think you were perhaps a fake/joke account that I wasn't in the loop on.

He's Jen's dad, actually.

Will possibly edit a photo into this post later... when I am not using dial-up.

James, the quote button is not working, so-

No

Because we need more pictures. The dial-up is because I am at home.

That is a mighty fine beard.

This is me playing gameboy music at a gameboy/chiptune music night thing. This picture was taken with a gameboy!

(I kind of feel like I might be reaching some kind of critical mass of nerdery by posting this on an internet forum for a webcomic.)

alas, my new boss makes me shave or trim the beard. so i just go clean shaven these days. i hate trimming the madness.

I actually don't know, there's only 9000000000000000000 posters for it in halifax.

A few pictures from New Orleans:

In the back of a truck on the freeway.

With Dan the man.

Finally, a photo from like two months back. NSFW due to poorly drawn genitals. link

You need to dye your beard too.

Ah, there's the problem. I haven't actually been in the city for a very long time.

I guess I should post some pictures. This was taken shortly after I had a major haircut a couple months back.

For comparison:

(I don't take a lot of pictures.)

Maybe they can just represent different hemispheres?

It kinda looks like what would happen if the two of you somehow had a love child.

EDIT for picture!

I found some shockingly Canadian maple syrup, so it was picture time. More Tronnocon photos can be found here if you and I are Facebook friends.

Like, seriously. Those two were totally hot for each other. All the time.

Yes, yes they are. And are you grabbing each other's butts? Hawt.

Blurry. And I think my eyes are red. I had also not shaved for the entire Hawaii excursion.

evernew · « **Reply #45 on:** 30 Jun 2008, 13:12 »

OK, since you wanted it to have me in it and to be something cool ...

That's me playing on the tent stage at Hurricane Festival 2008.
It works a lot like karaoke - there's a list of songs the session band will play, you get to pick an instrument and whether or not you want to sing or not. Then you go on stage and rock the fuck out as hard and as good as you can and if the crowd likes it, they'll let you know. It was a cool experience.

"The Generals" playing at a charity show sometime in spring 2007. The two girls are two singers from our old "party" band whereas the dude on the guitar and me (on the cello) are the official new band "The Generals", dubbed so after the Dispatch song that brought us together.

And since I love doing this so very much, here's a picture of me longboarding. This one is actually of a body varial, i.e. jumping and turning 180° on the board.

Hope I didn't come on too strong ...

Evernew, that series of photos is pretty great!

Sexy camera, morca (sorry camera, I hope I'm not being creepy (ps do you want to make out)). Is that medium format?

evernew · « **Reply #48 on:** 01 Jul 2008, 01:53 »

@ ViolentDove - that is some serious nerdery. I love it (and that is most likely due to me not having been allowed a Gameboy).

@ orangepeas - like the idea a lot, but that picture would be 3.5 times better (at least) with cleaner background. The plastic bag and the tinfoily-looking tube take away some of the magic.

Eris · « **Reply #49 on:** 01 Jul 2008, 02:22 »

Fish pay attention to the moon!? Woah.

Also, this isn't a photo, so I'm going to link it, but I drew myself at work today to take note of what I was wearing. I am thinking of doing this on a regular basis.
