Aww, little kids are awesome... until they talk. What's the code to make the pictures smaller? | ||||
| Mel |
I just resize them on whatever upload site I use. | ||||
| cardboardy |
is there somewhere on the forum that tells me how to post a picture? | ||||
| MysteryEND |

I'll agree with the people here; they are cute. | ||||
| wicked_trouble_now |
Kids in general are adorable.
^My brother and sister running on the beach... a few days after Christmas. I love southern California. 
^ I'm quite certain my sister is the only person in the world who can look adorable while freezing cold and wearing a huge sweatshirt and an ugly scarf. |

Awww! I just found this thread and all the kids on here are so cute | ||||
| wicked_trouble_now |
Okay, so a few weeks ago, I'm chillin' in my photo class, walking around campus looking for some picture moments when I look at the ground....
Schools are no longer safe. You know, I thought the library was a little creepy, with the drippy water and the crazy ants. And then we get a new principal and he's like, let's go rip up the school to make it look better. Uh-uh, he's lookin' for a hellmouth. I just hope the Mayor doesn't speak at our graduation. |
||||
| MysteryEND |
What is it? | ||||
| wicked_trouble_now |
lol, we have a loy of construction at our school right now it's a stake that they put in the ground. You can see it better in the original, that's a picture of the picture. | ||||

That's my sister and my dad. I love that picture.  That's my sister and my cousin Toni this spring at Universal Studios, in Orlando, Florida.
 That's my cousins Toni, Camille, JJ, my cousin Tori's boyfriend, Tori and then my sister in the foregroud. (at Universal Studios in Orlando Florida)
 My favorite picture from the "It's a Small World" ride in Disney World.
 Me (with my long hair) and my cousin Toni.
And Mel, your kids are so adorable. I absolutely love your daughters' red hair!! And Wicked Trouble, your sister is so cute, and quite awesome with her scarf and her umbrella. |
||||
| wicked_trouble_now |
MB, you and your cousin look so much alike!
This was taken on my phone but it really shows all of our personalities... and Emily's missing teeth! 
If I stop posting for awhile it's because I've fallen off my roof, risking my life for some pretty sunset shots. 
Love it! |

| Jess |
Wow great photos everyone.

Awesome pictures everyone! The kids are all uber-cute and the scenery type pictures look amazing. I'm going out to town today with some friends and we're going to the German market so I'll take some pictures to post here! | ||||
| wicked_trouble_now |
Jess, the picture of your sister and your dad is great! And the cat's are adorable! So tiny!
Icon I made... kinda fit here. Our icons post died. 
|
||||
| MagicBone |
Those are such awesome pictures. Wicked Trouble, your sister (I am assuming) is so cute without her teeth! And that picture of the clouds being "closer than they appear" is really cool, it took me a second to figure it out, but that's clever.
And Jess, I love your pictures. The one of you and your husband is great. And your kitties -- so cute! |
||||
| Wynter |
Ok, pictures from the German Market on Friday! Although the ones at night are from last year, I just figured I'd put those in because they're pretty 
Big wheel at night: 
I really like how I caught the writing in this one: 
How good does that look?: 
Entrance to the German Market: 
Various stalls with lots of goodies: 
Look at all the nutcrackers!!!

Explosion of colour on the carousel: 
Alison and Anne-Sophie on the carousel lol: 
Big wheel in all its glory (that's the Scotts Monument behind it):

Looking down into the Princes St Gardens and the Winter Wonderland ice-rink: 
Voila

| TwoToGo-Grave |
Those are great pictures everyone (especially the fudge stand; I'm really hungry as I'm writing this). It's cool to see people's personalities really come out in these pictures, even if you are not in them. It almost makes me wish I knew how to do this stuff (I said almost). | ||||
| wicked_trouble_now |
I love the repetition of the dolls and nutcrackers. And the ferris whell in front of the monument. Very good.
The sky was actually that color. It was awesome. 
Lovin' San Fran! 
Lovin' San Fran... still! 
Pic I took when I was bored... I love the color. |
||||
| MysteryEND |
WOW!...Wynter the pictures are so beautiful and the scenery behind the Ferris Wheel is beautiful! and the castles are amazing...Im so going to take a detour the Scotland when I go to Europe in 2008..
Wicked... the Sky picture was awesome..I like the colour... |
||||
| Wynter |
Wicked, the sunset (or is it sunrise? Hard to tell!) picture is GORGEOUS!! And I'm also loving San Fran, haha. Makes me want to visit the States even more now, grr arg. | ||||

Nice pics everyone! Did that candy cart say "floss?" Is that because they sell floss for your teeth after you eat all that candy? Or is there something called "candy floss" that I don't know about?
I especially like the pictures of scenery and people in different parts of the world. It's fun to see how different everything is and yet how similar, no matter where you are. |
||||
| Wynter |
You must know candy floss! It's like this sticky pink/white sugar and water concoction, so bad for you and kinda sickly sweet but it's still fun to eat once in a while.
See? |
||||
| MysteryEND |
In Australia its called Fairy Floss
============================= 
Everytime my best friend and I go to the mall we always go to Toy World and have a Star Wars light saber duel...Its really fun and even sometimes little kids watch us. We have only been kicked out of the store once... 
...my hair... 
This is my best friend Sarah(left) and me |

| Mel |
As I may have mentioned I love Christmas and we finally got our lights up yesterday so here are a couple of pics of my house.......sorry they are not too clear.
|
||||
| Wynter |
Hahaha brilliant! Loving the Christmas lights, Mel. And Mys, I'm sure I've said this before but I love your hair 
|

Candy floss...I think in America its called 'cotton candy' but who am I to judge! I only went there once...Am I right? | ||||

Wynter, I love your ferris wheel pictures and the ones of the stands at the German market. So cool. And view from the ferris wheel is beautiful.
Wicked, that sunset/sunrise picture is so beautiful too. I love watching them, even though I usually miss both. And I love those pictures of the buildings in San Francisco, I love big cities. I've had enough o' the burbs. |
||||
| Wynter |
Pic of a sunrise I took randomly yonks ago:

Those are great pics, Wynter! The ones of you and your sisters are so cute! Thanks for sharing. | ||||
| MagicBone |
Ooh, Wynter, your sisters are adorable! And you look so pretty -- you have great hair by the way! | ||||
| Wynter |
Aaaw, thanks m'dear I had to laugh at what you said about my hair though, it's a frickin' pain in the arse!

Awesome pictures there Wynter. Your city looks beautiful. | ||||
| cardboardy |
just looked at this thread for the first time after realising i had nothing to contribute.
thanks for sharing all those pics, its great to see peoples personalities as i think NFA said and those pictures of edinborough... I was just there a few months ago... and it looks exactly like that!!! thanks heaps. every day i convince myself more that im coming back to scotland next year. and one day i'll get a digital camera and share random pics of where i live (which at the moment is shrouded in a smoky haze from all the fires in across victoria) |
||||
| Wynter |
Thanks dude That's the main reason I like posting the pictures, I just love the city so much myself and think it's amazing, so I feel like I have to share it. Sorry if anyone is getting annoyed by the constant showing-off of Edinburgh though!
Muhahahahaha, my evil plan is working!! Lol joking aside, I'm glad to hear that cardy. Maybe one day, if you're brave enough, you could look me up  I look forward to seeing pictures of Aussie-land - everytime I do, I'm jealous but it all just looks awesome.

Some pics of my daughter taken this evening.....it's her 6th birthday and my mum made her a Barbie cake (using a real doll.....lol)
The reason she doesn't look to happy is that silly Mummy (that's me by the way) forgot to buy candles and we had to use a No. 5 candle and a single candle to make 6.....LOL 
|
||||
| MysteryEND |
Happy Bday to your Daughter...
Is that Simon next to her? |
||||
| Mel |
Yep, thats my wonderful husband that you can see on the pics......tattoos and all! |
||||
| MysteryEND |
what are the Tatts of? | ||||
| Mel |
He has about 13 of them! - a triquetra on his back linking the kid's names. - a sunflower down his right arm with Melanie going down the stem. - he has a bird with mum on it on his arm (from when he was younger - a Yosamite Sam on his arm (from when he was younger and that I hate!) - 3 cherubs holding a scroll with the kid's names - another 3 cherubs with a moon and stars on his chest & shoulder. - a crossword with all our names on his arm - another one with the kids names and my name under it on his arm. - 3 stars representing the kids on his arm. - he has the initials S & M intertwining on his calf. (Simon & Melanie). - he has all our initials with love hearts along the side of his lower arm. - he has a small poem he wrote "three shining lights, three little delights" (meaning the kids) along the side of his other arm. The best thing is he designs all his tattoos himself so they are all original. (apart from the ones when was younger) He always gets them to represent the kids or me & him. Here is a pic of the triquetra on his back - this photo was taken just after the tattoo was finished so it still looks very red!

WOW thats awesome!!^^ | ||||

Some images from one of the holiday gatherings. Beags and best buddy, Cheryl. Looks like C needs a refill on her Red Bull and Vodka. Please ignore the tasteless bean bag toss game in the background. We made that for a breast cancer benefit and it has since transformed into, possibly, the worst Christmas lawn art evah. |
||||
| beagle |
An not so good pic of Hart, Evil Cheryl and my beautiful wife Stacey, with her mandolin. |
||||
| beagle |
My good buddy and bass player Scott and the ever adorable Hart playing my baby. and yes, she plays as good as she looks |
||||
| beagle |
Let's pick! Little Jamie on Scott's stand-up bass and Beags seemingly completely confused by Cheryl's performance. |
||||
| beagle |
Grady with Stacey and showing off her new hair cut following her surgery. |

Ole Beags pickin a little. Note the BATG TEE! |

I was so bored a couple of hours ago so I randomly started taking pictures of things...so I thought Id share them with you...
My dad got me this for Xmas its a coffin with Dragons on it... 
My Hot Lies Concert Wall part....Thats the stick I Tore my Knee Ligament for.. 
My Bass Guitar... I'm so lazy I put the top half of wall up with posters and haven't got round to putting up the bottom 
MY favourite section of my wall.... 
My all time favourite drink PINEAPPLE JUICE!! 
WAAAAY Creepier then Sid....this thing wigs me out... |

| wicked_trouble_now |
I want to go back. (It's the Coliseum in Rome.) |
||||
| beagle |
Mys, Is that a P-Bass (Fender Percision Bass)? looks like one | ||||
| MysteryEND |
I wish I had a Fender..I only have a cheapie atm.... | ||||
| beagle |
It's all good, I bet it works great
C just bought a new P-Bass, it's a Mexican one, but it's still pretty cool. Now she has a Fender Jazz bass and a P-Bass. And a JDP acoustic one and a Yamaha fretless one and a 5 string one and a mini one. dang, she got a lotta bass's. If I was her I would sale them all and get one American made Fender. Big dummy |
||||
| MysteryEND |
IM SO EXTREMELY JEALOUS...
C is Officially AWESOME!! |
||||
| beagle |
Yes, She is. Even if she was mean to me this morning. ButtHead
She also has a Fender Stratocaster and 2 pretty nice acoustic guitars... I think that's all.. oh and a pretty nice keyboard too. and and old banjo that she's never strung... but she can play a little mandolin and ukelale. |
||||
| MysteryEND |
You should get someone to either record or film one of your jamming sessions and upload it so we can see you guys play... | ||||
| beagle |
I'm sure it wouldn't impress anyone but it sure would be fun. Maybe I'll get a little film from our gig this weekend so we all can laugh at it. C and a couple of her band mates are going to sit in for a few songs and it should be a hoot. We actually practiced a couple times. Well sorta practiced.
We'll be doing the Jan Smith song: Rum in My Morning Coffee, An original by C called A While and an original by me we call the A'hole song. You will not be seeing that one because I sing and well, not such a great singer. |
||||
| MysteryEND |
We will never know until we see you sing... | ||||
| beagle |
Take my word for it..
Oooo Oooo, Gross report for this morning. Our office is near the marsh and sometimes rats get in, so of course, there is poison and stuff above the ceiling. Well, this morning C smells dead rat so we call the rat guy (exterminator). But we got tired of waiting so I got under Cheryl's work station and opened the trap door in the wall and there it was, well at least it's tail. So I get a trash bag and extract the stinky dead rat by the tail... Yuck.. I'm charging that time to the office. But at least, now, I'm back in C's good graces... teehee |
||||
| Mel |
Whoo Hoo - I finally feel my room is back to normal....LOL
My hubby out my shelves back up - I know......I am mad, celebrating shelves....... Here are some pics of what my collection looks like now. Sorry the pics are not too clear - the batteries went on my digital camerla so I had to use my phone: 
|
||||
| Beckyxx |
wow! your collection is awesome mel!!! I'm off to holland on friday so ill be posting severe pictures on here once im done. dont really have many exciting photos, except of just boring ol' me...
I can post if you wanna see my mug!! |
||||
| Mel |
Of course I want to see your mug.....LOL
I would post a recent one of me, but then people would know that my myspace pic is actually 9 years old.....LOL Ah well...... |
||||
| Beckyxx |
Post some!!! I've got a few of me on myspace but for the people who havent joined myspace yet..
This is me, taken at christmas. 
And this was taken last Tuesday. I must add I was a little drunk!! |
||||
| Mel |
Okay I am finally showing you all what I look like now....LOL
My hubby just took this with his phone, so please just remember it's Sunday night, I am in my pyjamas and I look like a minger! Oh and for someone who is 31, I have broke out in teenage spots! LOL 
|
||||
| Beckyxx |
You look lovely Mel. You have such a friendly face!!! How long is your hair!!!!! I'm jealous!!! | ||||
| Mel |
awww thanks Becky - you are a good liar....LOL
My hair is about an inch or two above my bum! |
||||
| Beckyxx |
I dont lie! I pride myself of it. so nur!!!
I wish I had my long hair back, i cut it all off a few weeks ago, on a whim!! 
|
||||
| Mel |
It has taken me so long to get my long hair back.
When I was 20 my hair was just about the same length and permed (when spiral perms were in....LOL) and I got a really nasty virus and my hair fell out. Then I just kept getting it cut..and now finally I have my long hair back! I almost got it cut into a shoulder length bob just before Christmas but then I backed out. It takes me an age to do it though....about an hour to blow dry properly and another 40 minutes to starighten.....so usually I just tie it back. |
||||
| wicked_trouble_now |
Yay for long hair!
I don't blame you for backing out on cutting it... it's scary. Mine's at my waist right now and I want to cut it and donate it... but it took four years to get it to my waist (from my ear.) You must have such patience to straighten it... I gave up a few inches ago. Becky, why does that first outfit remind me of Willow? It's buggin me... I think it's reminding me of the Tabula Rasa outift... |
||||
| TwoToGo-Grave |
It's cool to actually put a name with a face with your pictures Mel and Becky. You both look nice and all.
This picture thread was really a great idea, as you can really see personalities of people and, well, the people themselves, which is cool. I would post something (not my picture for sure) if I knew how, and maybe I'll actually figure out how eventually. |
||||
| ildjarn |
Create an account at Photobucket (http://www.photobucket.com) and upload a picture to it (it's fairly trivial). When you go to your own list of photos, beneath it is a line that says 'BBcode'. Copy that text, and paste it in the board. Et voila. |
||||
| ildjarn |
This one is from around 1996, it's the most recent picture I have of myself (really!)
|
||||
| Beckyxx |
I only remember Buffy wearing a corset in life serial. Sorry honey. Glad it makes you think of Willow thou, my fashion sense is kinda warped by Buffy. |
||||
| Mel |
Here is the pic of the Gentleman figure that I got:
|
||||
| cp_angelbuff |
Do you cover him up at night.... you don't want a "Chucky" type event happening. (haha) Really though that would freak me out to wake up during the night to see that looking at me... scary....ooohhoooo. | ||||
| wicked_trouble_now |
The link isn't working. | ||||
| MysteryEND |
THATS AWESOME!!!!!!!! | ||||
| wicked_trouble_now |
Now the link is working.... how can you sit next to your computer with that? | ||||
| Mel |
I only put it next to the PC to take the picture then I moved it onto my shelves.
My hubby said it looked weird having only one 12" figure so he went on Ebay last night and bought me a 12" Master figure. |
||||
| ildjarn |
I made a picture with my cellphone yesterday which isn't too bad.
|
||||
| cp_angelbuff |
I have had the willies for "realistic" looking figurines... well actually any figurines... yipes! I remember watching this movie years ago about these little creatures that looked like figurines that lived in behind the fireplace that came out at night and caused trouble... death and stuff. Kind were they put string across the stairs to trip the mother and father... kind of still freaks me out. It didn't help that I am the youngest of six kids and they told me that we had a "special" door behind our "faux-fireplace" that led into these demons world. I remember as a teenager, my mother asked me to clean the fireplace and the area behind it... blocked off corner with a fake fireplace front (looked real with a mantle and all). I crawled into the area and noticed that my mom used it to store stuff... but there was a hatch that opened up into the basement... I was freaked out when I saw that "door"! Now when I visit my folks I think it is cool that she used it to hide stuff... x-mas gifts and stuff... But back then with the figurine movie in my mind and my brothers and sisters teasing, I was terrified of falling asleep on the floor of the living-room to be sucked down the "door to hell". So with that, you can see why I have NO figurines in my apartment. But hey, if you like them... learn from this and keep them locked up at night (haha). PS: Has anyone seen the Twilight episode were this little girl keeps her babysitters locked up as dolls in a display case? And if any of you remember the name of that movie I descibed... can you let me know, thanks.) |
||||
| Mel |
Giles & Lorne have arrived....whoo hoo!
|
||||
| Sunnydalehigh |
You're not alone, CP. My mom had a doll collection in a display case when I was growing up. When I was about 10, I had a sleepover with 2 friends and we stayed up late watching an old episode of the Twilight Zone where there's a wooden "voodoo" doll with a chain around it's waist. The woman who has it accidentally breaks the chain and the doll comes to life, chasing her around with a huge butcher knife. She eventually kills it by throwing it in the microwave. Anyway, we were watching TV (and sleeping) in the room with the dolls and we were totally freaked out all night. I've gotten over it since then, but I'll never forget that episode or that night.
By the way, nice pic, Ildjarn! You look the same as in your other pictures from 10 years ago. You're not a vampire, are you? Haha. |
||||
| ildjarn |
I feel a lot older though. And the advantage of shaving off all hair: you don't see they grey hairs
|
||||
| Mel |
I got a couple more figures.
Faith (End of Days) 
(I am not too sure about the Faith one....it's supposed to be a deluxe figure but I don't really like the knees and elbows on it) Vampire Willow

I feel for you Ildgarn; I too sometimes shave my head... takes years off (haha). 
(This picture was taken Spring '06 upon my return from Mexico. Just thought it about time I posted a Pic.) PS: I don't know why but my nephew and I had a bet who could grow the better moustache... he won. |
||||
| Mel |
There is nothing wrong with shaving your head....my husband is almost bald and he shaves his head and he looks a lot better for it.
I have seen pics of him when he had hair and I prefer him the way he is now. |
||||
| cardboardy |
no he's not a vampire, he's a cylon (who tend to be, on average, better looking than vampires) thanks all for posting pics, i'm too gutless and paranoid to post one of myself, i really wish i wasnt but if you really wanna see what i look like well i guess i can send a pic via email or something. apply by pm haha |
