**FlyingRamenMonster** , the portrait you link above was pretty cool actually. Instead of me, would you do my Grandparents circa 1928? ---

Ok, here’s a link to a picture of me… [linky-poo](http://photobucket.com/albums/e290/Pandora19512/?action=view¤t=me.jpg) (a self-portrait resulting from testing my camera, so it’s not the greatest.) Or if you prefer one of my excellent puppies who are infinately more photogenic then I. [puppies](http://photobucket.com/albums/e290/Pandora19512/) Enjoy 🙂 ---

Well, the [last](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v144/Jayn_Newell/sitting.jpg) time I smiled for the camera my father asked me if I was drunk. I do have other photos like the one I first posted (that’s one of my graduation photos, so it’s about three years old now) where I’m smiling, but that one’s my favorite of the bunch. **Spatial Rift 47** , 😃 ---

You’re not a dork. Technically Lenne, because I’m too lazy to make the other parts of it, but Yuna works. ---

> [@Spatial Rift 47](#): > > **Jayn** , did your father’s question about your supposed intoxication induce the smile, or vice versa? Vice versa, as he wasn’t even there that night. Just more proff that 'm not photogenic at all (at least when I try to smile) as I didn’t start drinking until after that picture was taken. ---
