Hmmm, playing around with the camera, just can't get a shot doing it myself. Hmmmm, going to have to have one of the kids take the shot in the morning. :)

You don't need someone to host it. Remember the WarWolves directory, to which all WarWolves have access?

True. Though, I remember (probably my own incompetance) that I couldn't get it to work for me and then tried the MSN route which worked, if but barely, and with mixed results.

It can work if you use a browser-formatted link to get in and then drag 'n drop the file onto it, although you're better off learning how to use the ftp protocol.

No, I just stuck the camera on a shelf and turned on the auto-timer. That's why the lighting and composition is crappy. Not that Rebecca is a photographer, but at least a human behind the camera would have probably done a bit better. But it got the job done.

There is that direct access link thingy you can click in the thread. Then just have whatever folder it's in handily open, and drag'n'drop.

Or, if you can figure out e-mail attachments, send it my way and I'll do it for you. Just PM me and I'll send my address on over.

Sorry about the surly expression; I don't have that many pictures of myself without a shirt on. I'm slowly trying to get back into shape, but it's a tough slog. The ol' metabolism doesn't work as fast as it used to.
Shouldn't you be wearing a nurse's outfit? :P
LMAO!!!

Nah, I think he looks drop-dead sexy as it is! Besides, I think his wife would rather wear it.

I am honored *small deferential bow*

But I gotta say your lifting's paying off. Your trapezius, biceps and shoulders are coming along quite nicely. In fact, I'm tempted to say:

[Hot Rod voice]Not bad for an ole' timer![/Hot Rod voice]

(What can I say? I've watched TF: The Movie too much lately...;) )

The new haircut's cool, too. My noggin's way too big to pull off something that short; I have to "trick" the perceived size of my head with tons of hair, though it's not that evident in the couple of crappy pics posted here.

What? That mustache/goatee thing throw it off.

I've seen "heavy" Marines before. But really. Chin fur. For shame.

BTW, it makes it look meaner if you take the smilies off. With them on it looks nicer. Really. :)
