I felt like sharing some pics, so here you go! First - me! So you can compare it with my simself and see how much I suck at making sims, lol. This is a pic I took of myself at work (for those who don't know, I work at a rental management company and spend my days driving around town, jamming out to Seth-related mix CDs and taking pics and virtual tours of rental properties), and one of the very very few pics of me that I like. My hair is shorter now, though. I look all intense. And here are some pics of my house. Back when we first moved in, so it's way more cluttered now than it is in these pics. Plus we have way more books, lol. It's a bit blurry, but here's my side of the dining room with my computer set up. That's all big - guess I won't spam it up with three other pics that size of the bookcases. Sometimes I take random pics of pretty things I see while I'm out driving around. I linked the whole album on my LJ before - if you didn't see it then, here's the link again. Pretty Work PicturesA pic John took of a pic of me when I was little! Daddy played guitar in a bluegrass band before I was born, and he'd play for us on Sunday nights. I'd sing into a hairbrush or play along on that little guitar. And lastly, a sign we saw while hiking with my mother at Stone Mountain. Umm - for new peeps, you'd get the joke if you read Valley. Anyone else got any pics they want to share? I might put some up of my cats later.

Stacy, I think you look significantly more like your self-sim than I look like mine Okay, these are all a couple years old, but I've been somewhat ill lately, so I've been avoiding cameras like the plague (which I did before too, since I always look gorgonesque in photos, but even moreso than usual). So... just picture me slightly better looking, but also exhausted and more unkempt (less kempt?). Putting the pics under spoiler tags to save your connection (and possibly your eyes as well). Here's a random shot from a couple years ago. I had grad photos that day (although this isn't one of them), so I actually bothered straightening my hair: Here's the only shot from my grad photos (spring of '09) in which I don't look like a stoner. I do look angry and bitter, though: Aaaaand here's a picture from when I was goofing around just before leaving to watch the Olympic torch pass through campus last school year: And that's all I have for decent-ish shots of me that don't include my parents and/or brother as well (and I doubt they'd appreciate it if I posted pictures of them, even though it's a bit of a shame because my dad is one of those people who just looks hilarious in pictures no matter what he's doing). Here's a picture of my current workspace. Bear in mind that this was taken just after I moved in at the start of the school year and it's much messier now:

OMG-- you two are both cute. Stacy, you've said before you don't take good photos, but I think you look very pretty in your picture.
And Van, pfft, you're pretty too. Man you guys are gonna be a hard act to follow, lol.

I didn't comment earlier, because I disappeared looking at all the photos in Stacy's album. Personally - I think both you girls are completely gorgeous. Um Stacy - you do too take good photos! Way better than mine OK - I'll add a couple to the mix. I'm generally very reticent about putting pictures up, for a number of reasons - but it just seems wrong not to share them with family. I actually only have 2 photos of myself that I like. This is one: Circa 2003. The other I'm going to have to scan in, because I only have it in hard copy. I'll add it here later.

I am...not a photo person now, so I don't have anything recent. I do have some photos of my mother and I and myself circa 1991 and 1995, though! I swear I'm not this sassy now, lol.

laura: I use to dye my hair every two months a different color...but once I dyed my hair this flat ashy dark blonde it evidently soaked into my hair folicals and the color grew back as my roots. It was a bad color, gives me the shivers thinking about it. So I went back dark to try and fix my original hair color. Well...the first one on here is something I should have posted after Halloween because it's my costume, Ring Master. And...curly and straight (excuse the fuzzinesssessss):

Oh, you guys - thank you so much for all the compliments! And Laura - lol. Seth is based somewhat on John - I should post pics of him if you really want to see resemblances to Seth. And you guys - I already knew you were all beautiful people, and this just confirms it. MDP - I love your costume! And your hair! And everything about you! Rachel - aww, if you ask me you do too glow! You're beautiful. And yay for cute dogs! Dinuriel - wow, you're cute and so is your bedroom! Kiri - *hugs* I think you're beautiful inside and out. And yay you looked at the work photos! And I have a fair few other albums on that account - a lot of Sims 2 stuff. It's my old account. The Valley account, which is paid for, is all locked up. Got paranoid after a pic I'd uploaded there and posted in a friend-locked LJ entry was used in one of the secrets. Laura - you're absolutely lovely! And so is your husband and your kid! Hmm - maybe I will post pics of John. Mwahahaha! Lhasa - I love your smile and you're gorgeous and oh - if I met you IRL I would stare at you and then give you a great big hug.

Okay, here's John, with his beautiful blue eyes. And yeah - comparing this to the pic of Seth in my avatar - I did a pretty good job, huh? And Grace, with the streak in her hair that inspired 10's current plot point - whenever I share what I've learned while doing the research for it she says "I can't believe you got all this just from me dyeing my hair."

I also agree with 13pumpkin! And I think everyone looks really nice as well. You know how when people are awesome, it shows in their face (or is that just me who notices that)? Well, I can see that in all of you! This would be the only picture of me that I can actually say I like. Me as a kid, with my little sister. I think I was about 5, making her around 2. And us again, significantly older. This is in the reflection of The Bean in Chicago. In my natural state: stuffing my face! Only with unhealthy things though.

Johnny Rockets! Carla, I have to admit I've wondered since forever what you look like, lol. We've only known and chatted for something like two years now. Awww, you all are lovely. And pictures of John and Grace too. I admit I've been curious since we hear so much about them. It is really wonderful to see your faces. All right, I'm determined to take a picture sooner or later.

Carla, I love the last pic of you stuffing your face! I almost put up a terrible pic my husband took of me eating a cake doughnut on Halloween, because it really does reflect what I've been spending most of my time doing lately. And I agree that everyone looks so nice! Lovely, genuine smiles and eyes and beautiful open faces! (Sorry, the pregnancy hormones are making me really, really sappy lately).

You all look like people I would cover in hugs in real life! And yeah - all definitely see the awesomeness in your faces! (not just you who see it Carla - I see it too!) MDP - you are absolutely gorgeous! I love the ringmaster costume, and that hair! It's to dye for! (Sorry couldn't resist the pun!) Stacy - you did do a pretty good job with John/Seth - but John in RL still wins - he's got such a gorgeous loving face. And I LOVE the look on Grace's face!

You're all so pretty. Kiri please don't cover me hugs I'm really not a huggy person. Ok if you all be brave and post pics of yourself I can too. I think. Well it's on photobucket so I better had finish the job. Ok I like this pic, not necessarily because I look good (because I looks stupider when I smile) but because it's an edited pic of me with my fave musical star. And yes the pic is terrible but I was using my bros camera and didn't realise the settings had moved in my bag so they didn't go right. This was July 09.

Rad, you look just the way I imagined-- mostly because of the icon, lol. Oh I'll be getting your self sim. I love the picture of you dressed up for the play OMG you have gorgeous eyes.
Illandrya, ha, I'm the same. But aw, you're pretty too. You have gorgeous hair. Also, I can see why our sim-selves would have ended up so much alike, lol.
