I’ll have to send in a more recent pic of myself and my new spiky hair, the other one is kinda outdated.

> Badtz Maru, after a cursory glance through a few links on your index, I couldn’t find any other pictures of you. Some bizarrely painted women, but none of you. So sunglasses it is. Hope that’s ok.

Actually, that is probably the best one. I am one of the least photogenic people I know. But here are links to a few of the others with me in them (these three are all from the same night).

The painted lady is a friend of mine who has done some modeling for a local photographer/body artist, Leroy Roper. If you like them, you can check out more at [http://www.leroyroper.com](http://www.leroyroper.com).

Forgive you? What’s there to forgive? It’s your directory and you’re doing all the work. I didn’t know you didn’t realize that was public. Having done some web design, I understand the “creepy” feeling, and it’s your prerogative to change the security.

The text list looks better anyway, and it’s alphabetical. The only disadvantage I see is that it’s more HTML for you to maintain, whereas a directory is self-maintaining.

In case I hadn’t mentioned it before, I appreciate both of your efforts.

**Shayna,**  
Thank you for posting my pic so quickly (I think).  
I didn’t realize how dorky that picture makes me look. :rolleyes:

Very nice picture of you, BTW.

It’s sure nice, and interesting, to put faces with a lot of the people I’ve been talking to for the last 3 months.  
With few exceptions, you folks don’t look anything like I imagined.

Thabk you for all your hard work Shayna, it is very much appreciated.

I added some more new people today…

**Ad Noctum, Dark Lord Davidson, markpruett** & **Sapphire Bullet**

I also added links to the Group Gathering Pages on the text only links page. However, it seems that **Falcon** and **Satan** have taken their pages down. I’m leaving the links there for the time being in the hopes that they’ll be back up soon or can be fixed.

**mrblue92** , thanks for understanding. And as far as maintaining the additional HTML, as I said before, I was already maintaining a text document with all the urls that I had to update every time there was a change. Now I don’t have to maintain _that_ list anymore, I can just use the new links list. Adding a new line of HTML is as easy as copy/paste and change the name. It’s really no more time than what I was doing before. And this way, people get the benefit of having an alternate way of perusing the pages.

**Boris** , thank you for the heads-up on that on. Me and my lysdexia. 🙂 Let me know if you find any more broken links.

And thank you and you’re welcome to everyone else again. 😃

This is great! Pulldowns are so tricky, you keep losing your place.

Shayna -

Email me with what links are broken…I haven’t moved ANY of the old pages that you link to. In fact, I was going to email you the links to some of the newer ones.

Lemme know.

Upon further review, it appears Angelfire has seen fit to delete my ENTIRE FUCKING ACCOUNT.

I’m trying to get it back, so I’ll let you know what’s up, Shayna.

**Wicked Blue** now has a new picture up, and there is a **correction** ; **markpruett** is actually **bump** (sorry again for the mixup!).

Oh, and I also added the **EuroDope** group gathering link today as well.
