    ...what to say... what to do...

    I will just let it stand as it is. Always had a thing for ambiguity anyway. :spin:

    /musings over

    Cesard, pierced SP-comrade -- you may be right there. ;)

    Other than being a grizzled veteran of many of life's battles, I don't resemble my avatar at all...It's just how I usually feel... ;)

    Yikes! I just browsed through SP's photo albums. I know we wouldn't look like our avatars but I guess I had some vague idea of how everyone would look like. Reality just set in.

    Now you have me puzzled, Cernak. :D

    Spelly: You ment to say something about the princiPAL, I bet... :p ;)

    Btw: I never ran into my own avatar. I bet he's an evil banite or somesuch, in stead of a cleric of Lathander.

    Well I have have finally been accepted into the Members Groups and most of you really don't look like your avatars! Chev looks the closest, especially if he would wear a hood for his next photo!

    Edit, actually Arabwell looks similar to hers also, only her real clothes are not as revealing!

    Probably dmc's picture, I must say. In Germany we call it "seriös" -- trustworthy, business-like.

    But then he is a lawyer. :)

    Oh and Nakia was a surprise to me. I wouldnt have guessed we have a Honoured Elder amongst us. How great is that?

    Yeah, I would have been surprised too if she didn't mention that she was around during WWII.

    Thank you for the "Honoured", Dendri. Although in the FAI chat room I think they have come to accept that I can kick ... and get in trouble with the ops with the best of 'em. :evil: There's a reason I picked a rogue.

    I'm going to have to say for the most part, not really. There are some obvious similarities, such as the wings, but other then that, none.

    Compare.
