Clearly, Antipodean gentlemen are slack in attending their ladies and are behind the times and, moreover, don't know how lucky they are.

We've been without power in my town for the last 18 hours, due to a big storm last night. This is just to let you know that I'll be a little slow posting any new pictures for awhile. (no one knows how long power will be out)
Meanwhile, have temp access from another office. It's propane light and fireplace heat at home for the duration!
Cheers, Gort

It was tough working out, but I've adapted the propane tank to the power supply on my computer. <wheeew> 26 hours without internet access from home! I felt like a meth addict with only 50 cents in his pocket.

Minor detail, but I thought Fiddleback was no longer a shippie - if he's not still reading the ship he may not aware of the gallery but his picture's on it.

Done. But I accidently sent the wrong photo the first time. Sorry about that. (No one wants to see me in the nude, I'm sure ).

Suggestions:
- Is it possible to have a link to a person's profile from their photo page?
- If you're adding new people, or updating photos, could you do some sort of "What's New?" page to track changes? I realise this might cause you extra work, so I understand if you'd rather not.

I think that would be fairly easy quote: If you're adding new people, or updating photos, could you do some sort of "What's New?" page to track changes?
Yes, I plan to do this, but I'm waiting for the initial round of photo exchanges and photo retouching by Gort to calm down first, so that new pictures really are new pictures rather than yet another version of the old picture. At that point I'll wipe comments and gallery profiles whenever the picture changes too (although I suppose letting people change their photos while keeping the old comments could be quite entertaining).

You are correct FD. Although when I was a girl, we were taught "Nouns in Opposition" or something like it. Oxymorons? Who knew!

Yes, but I'm a little cagey about altering photos beyond sharpening or cropping to fit the page better.
I think your photo is just fine the way it is but I took your challenge just for fun. Would you like me to PM it or link here?

Aah, so that's why my PM box has suddenly filled up with frankly filthy suggestions from female (and one or two male) Shipmates. Then again, I knew that once my chiselled features and sexy body were exposed to the world, I'd be fighting them off with a shitty stick...
And as for the unnamed Shippie who made the suggestion involving the riding crop, the chocolate sauce and the Times Educational Supplement... you should be ashamed of yourself! (and then PM me again) [ 23. December 2006, 14:03: Message edited by: Stevie Boy Wonder ]
