We love them and hate them... normally hate them for me. Lol.
I remember one time we had to take a picture for a band function and I got an ENORMOUS zit on my chin 3 days before.

When I say huge I mean huge!

The picture was in black and white and it was in low resolution and the camera was like 5 or 6 feet away and you could still see the big zit. : |

I was upset at that. Lol.

I like looking back at pictures and remembering old times or at least trying to. Do you ever look at a picture and go "DDDAAANNNNGGG I LOOKED LIKE STRAIGHT GARBAGE!" lol.

That happened to me a few minutes ago... lol.

And I'm horrible about uploading them in a timely manner. I'll upload pictures to my PC months and months after I took them... I'm a slacker I'll admit it. Lol.

I look at photos from last year on facebook and go "Ewwww.... um... just ew" all the time. Don't even get me started with the shirtless photos that were taken in the last couple years...

Mind Freak · 29th Aug 2008, 11:41 PM

Lmao.
I don't do shirtless photos.

I'm not heavy but I just don't think I have the body for it.

I'll leave it to the guy's with 6 packs. Lol.

I look at old pics and wonder what the hell was going on with my hair and why did i choose to walk outta the house looking like that!! I dont mind pics of myself but im like u mind freak where they wont go up onto facebook till months later when i can be bothered!

Mind Freak · 29th Aug 2008, 11:51 PM

Haha. Ikr.

I hate, hate, HATE my photo being taken, or looking at pictures of myself. Don't know why.. just hate it.

You will only find photo's of me when I have been forced to take a photo... like my drivers license.

I have one Grandma who is a photo nut.. I would cry when I was little when we were going to see her, because she would always take us to her garden so she could get pictures of us playing in the flowers... AHHHH just thinking about that drives me insane.

Mind Freak · 30th Aug 2008, 01:07 AM

Lol. Poor guy!
Did you get like stoned with Polaroid camera's when you were young or something? Haha.

I like taking pictures on a good day... meaning no zits lol.

Trumpetplyer23 · 30th Aug 2008, 05:41 AM

I like taking pictures actually. Only when I feel like it though.

I tend to take funny pictures and serious pictures and I think I'm okay looking.

And I don't think it would be appropriate for me to take shirtless photos, lol.

Paul_UK · 30th Aug 2008, 07:53 AM

I hate having my photo taken too. They nearly always look awful and not how I appear in the mirror. Other people agree, so it's not just my vanity!

The most recent reasonable one is this one which was taken in 2005 and is the one I'm using on the dating sites I've joined recently.

As for shirtless - no way!

What's the point of being ashamed of yourself, now, really?
