    just an observation, but why do so many people pose themselves and take a pic of themselves especially for the 'nerds' thread?

    some of the pics look so posed its a good laugh, but to be honest i find the best pics of people are ones that arent posed... people are more relaxed in them ones.

    anyone else think this?

    edit.. funny laptop movements there - just correcting the oul spelling..

    because they want to?

    is it annoying to you?

    if that's annoying you, it's probably best you stay away from myspace

    [sarcasm]Oh my god people are putting up pictures of themselves and want to look good in them so they pose? Shocking :eek: [/sarcasm]

    Heh, get off his back, he never said they were annoying or irritating, read the first post before hopping on the bandwagon.

    Looks to me like a general musing; he prefers non-posed photos to posed photos, and is wondering if other people think the same. Nothing vindictive in that.

    Wow I haven't read your post CuLT but I agree. :P

    Well OP, maybe some poeple just don't have photos of themselves, like me.
    They would have to whip out a camera or pone and take a picture to put it up there, as I would have to.
