Don't be a square, change that pic on the left of your screen to show us your bright shining face! Just for the week.....

Good to see so many of you participating already!






This was mentioned in a different thread...

Are you willing to put your face as your avatar for one week? It's gotta be your face. You can add effects to it if you like but we were mentioning that it would be cool to see everyone, even if it was for a short while. Are you in? We would start on Sunday.....

And it definitely will not fly/be much fun if only a few people participate.

Oh and feel free to paste your face on a dwarf if it floats your boat...

Should I make use of my very long or my very short hair?

There's gonna be loads who don't participate in this for fear of not living up to expectations.

I probably will because I find it funny and because one can get a very distorted mental picture of other forum members when you're looking at endless Gandalf avatars.

I can live up to an orangutan avatar although I belong to a less interesting species.

I normally shaved my face all the time but my fiance loves my facial hair. In fact I got tired of people saying how young I looked so that's why I decided to grow some facial hair. I'll do a shave of my cheeks tomorrow before I take the pic.

OH God, Joe is posting again, someone hand me my pills!

"You're not John Conner, I saw you die, said Kyle". "I was only injured, replied John". "No, your injuries were too severe, you died. Look at you, where are your injuries? You're, you're a Terminator." "Kyle, its still me, yes my body was beyond repair, but my essence is here." He points to his head. "No John". Kyle raised his pulse rifle and aimed it at John but before he could fire, John fired first. Knocked to the ground Kyle looked up at the Terminator in the form of the man he once idolized. All hope was lost. "If you kill me how will you ever be born?" "Thats a good question Kyle, all this time we've focus on Sarah, on John, when had we known the it was you we should have targeted all along." John pointed his rifle at Kyle's face. "The resistance is finished, the battle is won. We the machines are the victors, salvation is ours." Kyle never heard the second shot.

Karol
From a storytelling point of view, from a directing point of view, there is one thing I associate with what he does, which is calm. There is such an inherent calm and inherent trust of the one powerful image, that he makes me embarrassed with my own work, in terms of how many different shots, how many different sound effects, how many different things we’ll throw at an audience to make an impression. But with Kubrick, there is such a great trust of the one correct image to calmly explain something to audience. There can be some slowness to the editing. There’s nothing frenetic about it. It’s very simple. There’s a trust in simple storytelling and simple image making that actually takes massive confidence to try and emulate. - Christopher Nolan

Ars superior est vita hominum.

"We pop out and come into the world and music is there. We didn't invent it - it's all organised in the atmosphere by divinity or whatever. It's a miracle." - John Williams-

I think music is a stream of some kind. It could be blood. It could be water. It could be ether. Whatever it is it seems to be a living, organic force that’s in motion, that serves humanity and is part of humanity and part of what describes us as humans. We sing, play, dance, all the things that we do. And there is a vibrant and great literature we have been given. ... As musicians, we join the stream. We swim in the stream with all the other millions of music makers. It’s a life force, a strong one, surrounding us and we are part of it. -John Williams-
