Yeah - it was a couple of years ago. There’s a thread about it [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=379012).

ooh I didn’t realise you could have a profile picture on the SD. I will find one suitable now for you all.

You realise I have just wasted nearly an hour looking at everyones’ profile pages 🙂

I was going to post a thread about profile pictures actually. How and why do you choose the photos you use?

Ah! Déjà vu! I think we had another thread about this just last month. 🙂

Anyway, I’ve got one. It’s just the same photo I’m using for my Facebook profile right now, but I’m tempted to change it to something silly like [this](http://ii.fobby.net/misc/explosion.jpg), just for fun. 😛

**I Have Hippos In My Garden** , don’t you disappoint us now! We’re all waiting in suspense. Do you have a photo of yourself feeding the hippos? That would be perfect.

Mine was taken by my ten-year-old niece.

I’m rather fond of it.

I didn’t even know we could do that. I put up my standard pic – it’s a vectorized photo that I like.

Now that I’ve finally paid, I’ve put up a temporary one until I decide which one to use. What I’ve got now is a modified Legend of Zelda sprite that I made years and years ago.

I’m going to put up either [this](http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q103/silvercat17/portrait-skat.jpg) or [this](http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q103/silvercat17/portrait.jpg). Or maybe [this one](http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q103/silvercat17/Silvercat-1.gif)
