It is and I am.
I missed you, by the way! Run nekkid through the thread, willya? There was never a more appropriate time! 
I’m thinking about it, but I don’t have any nude pictures of myself on a digital camera or in a file of any kind. I’d have to figure out how to take a naked picture of myself and I know it would just end up a partial shot of my ribcage and belly button or from my nipples to my waist or some weirdness. I would actually have to have someone take the pictures so that I wasn’t just aiming a camera at my naked self in hopes of getting a decent shot. I did post a cleavage shot earlier though just to show my support! In fact, have another one! (This one has been on the dope before but I will break the link just in case.)

I have already posted my photo. You people have already seen my bird.
:o
I think that would be a bit too explicit!
Oooh, that is… quite a nice tattoo! Creation and destruction, was it…? I love a multitasker. 
Much as I’d like (in my narcissistic way) to post a relevant picture, all of mine either are too dated or contain other people whose consent I don’t have. And there’s no one here to take my picture, either. :o
If you have a tripod and a timer mode on your camera, it’s easy. Find some backdrop that’s about the same height as you. Put the camera on the tripod, and aim it so you can see the backdrop pretty well. Set the timer on the camera to 5 or 10 seconds, go stand in front of the backdrop, and strike a pose.
How much was the sweater?
Or the easier soloution. Use a mirror and set the flash to off and make sure the room is well lit… Not that i’d know or anything, just seems like common sense to me:p
We certainly appreciate all the care everyone has put into making sure the original links aren’t clickable. Unfortunately, whenever those links are quoted, posters are forgetting to uncheck the “Automatically parse links in text” box, thus making the links clickable.
To get around that, we ask that whomever posts links from now (in this thread), please be sure to disable your link in such a way that even quoting it won’t make it clickable. To do that, just add an extra space or two between the colon and the two forward slashes in “http://”
So, what would normally be Straight Dope Message Board - Your direct line to thousands of the smartest, hippest people on the planet, plus a few total dipsticks. would now become:
http: //boards.straightdope.com/sdmb
The second link will not parse, but anyone can copy-and-paste it into their browser window, remove the extra space(s), and go to the site.
Mucho gracias.
You mean like this?

You got it. Thanks.
haha funny you should bring that up! By coincidence I was doing something called ‘Anything for money’ at my school last year. Long story short, they made me glue barber hair to my chest and face and as a last minute thing we decided it would be cool to shave my eyebrows off too. I ended up looking like a pale version of that guy. Well somewhat. These are Safe for work too!

I wont bother breaking the links because they are Safe for work. And the story ends with my getting a theatre sized Mission impossible three poster that is too big to fit on my wall. I was pissed cause the guy before me got 5 bucks…
ETA: ok, ill break the links
Re: Picture #4-What would something like that cost me to get?
Of course I’m talking about the tattoo!
I checked about an hour after those were posted, airline tickets to London are about $1500 right…Oh tattoo. Yes, I should’ve finished reading your post before answering.
I must protest! That picture of Doc Cathode is NOT nude! He’s wearing a cloak or something.
You don’t even need a tripod. If you’re somewhat clever, you can find a place to take the pics where you can prop the camera on a bookcase or something of the right height. And of course, you can adjust the height of the camera by putting books or something under it.
And you can make sure you’re in the right place in front of your backdrop with a little experimentation. Use a bit of masking tape or something to mark the spot where you should stand.
Never mind how I know this.
(off to read the pit thread!! Oh boy oh boy!)
Ooh! I really like that. And I’m not being salacious, I really like that in an artistic way. I don’t know all the photography terms, but I like how the shadows of the footprints in the sand are echoed in the shadows on your diaphragm, and your skin just blends into the background - it’s like human camouflage!
Plus, it just looks mighty inviting. I wanna lay down next to you and just feel the breeze and listen to the water.
Looking at the tattoo, I can’t tell if it’s Shiva or Kali.
Re My Photograph
I’m hurt that some people are saying it has no artistic merit. I, and the photographer ( an illustrator and graphic artist), really did try to make the images more than just ‘Hey! Lookit my penis!’. Yes, I have an erection in the picture. But I was going for more than just that.
Oh, I got it. Scares the spit outta me, but I get it. I hang out with Thelemites, remember? It’s, I think, exactly what you were going for. I don’t see it as a “lookit my penis” pic at all. But it was shocking, I do admit. Illuminatiprimus’ are “lookit my (gorgeous) penis” pics. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, either…
Doc Cathode, thank you for a) spearheading this thread, and b) having the ahem balls to be the first image poster.
Looks like I’ll be putting my money where my mouth is, as I stated in the ATMB thread. Soon as the roommate’s not home, penis will ensue. :o
This will make for a very interesting MAD dopefest at Dave and Ginger’s.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest that nobody worth knowing will seriously think less of you if you do not honor your word and post a broken link to a naked picture of yourself here.
(I initially thought “Sentences I never thought I’d write,” but with the SDMB, expect the unexpected.)
