There are some great pictures here! Is there a convenient way to post a pic without having to link to some external website?

quick and easy alternative?
one quick and easy way is to load it as your avatar (clicking on it would make the full size available)
then either jar or percy or lam could store it and free up your avatar to return to your old (or in lams case, ever evolving) version.
(or the even older one with the horse schraf?)

Oh, how silver-tongued you are, especially for an orangutan.
Let me just warn you, that was taken at a wedding. I spent a full 20 minutes on my appearance that day. I don't always look that good.
Anyhow, thank you kindly, jar.

Too bad we don't have any "audio avatars"; I have a thing for Aussie boy accents.
When I asked my husband (who's sitting right across the room) if he minded if I flirted on line a bit with someone from Australia, he asked "Does he have a big knife?" I answered, "I hope so."

Re: quick and easy alternative?
Okay, okay, I can take a not-so-subtle hint that everybody in the world wants me to have a horse avatar.
I'm actually pleased that the old avatar has been so popular.
I dug up a new one. Her name was Saussaye ("France" was her stable name) and she was my all-time favorite school horse from college.
She was not easy to ride and was what we liked to call in the business "hot"; meaning very excitable. She had a "Alpha mare" personality and was not a cuddly, sweet sort of horse; she was all business. She also was not particularly well-built for jumping because her but end was higher than her shoulders so it was hard for her to rock back onto her hindquarters to jump well. Once, when somebody else was riding her in a lesson, they let her get too fast and flat (very bad for her "downhill" build) to a solid jump and they flipped her.
France and I got along great, though. She and I showed in Combined Training competitions for two years in row and placed fifth or better in every class we entered out of pretty big fields. Not bad for a little cross bred school horse and a student.
She was sold to a classmate of mine a few years after we graduated (I think she was around 15) and a few years after that she got a pretty bad illness and had to be put down. There's a couple of foals by her out there somewhere.
Once, when I came back to visit the college year or two after I graduated, I went into her stall to visit. She had just gotten fed her grain, so she had her face in her bucket, but I went over to her and spoke to her and started stroking her neck. She brought her head out of the bucket and stuck it between my arm and my side; the equivalent of a great big horse hug that I had only read about but never seen. She kept it here, chewing the whole time, for about 5 or 10 seconds, then went back to eating.
That was a moment I will never, ever forget.
Sorry for the rambling, although I hope you liked hearing about France.

What is that, like "real name" and "porn star name"? Or like T.S. Elliot's Book of Practical Cats, horses have multiple names?

Lots of horses that go to shows or who are pure bred with registration papers have fancy, long names that would be silly to use for every day.
Like if you owned a purebred Arabian horse, his registered/show name might be something like "Ibn Sahrouf Mustafa el Sanhedrin" which would probably reflect the names of his parents, but you wouldn't use that whole stupid thing around the barn. You'd give him a name like "Barney" or "Izzy", or "Skip" or something like that.

Re: quick and easy alternative?
Dogs are like that also. If you've ever watch one of the big dog shows the name they call the dog is not the name that usually shows on the screen.
I had a Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Heider MiEmi's Special Fx...but her name was always Zoe.
Heider was the kennel she was bred at, MiEmi was for my kids, special was her litter name. All her brothers and sisters had names with special in them.

In other theads you usually criticize the fact that guys seem to find only certain female "looks" attractive. I always assumed from your level of (my perception) anger that you felt outside of such a category or were somehow put down as being ugly.
Now I am a bit mystified as you seem quite hot and within conventional "attractive parameters". Is it instead that you are upset that so many guys tell you how attractive you are on a daily basis and wish not so many did?
