I've been wanting to ask about these for a lonnng time, so I'm finally starting a thread. Mine are my babies, almost EIGHT years ago! I used this pik (and same username) on the old board, too. Tell us the who/ what/ where/ when story of your profile pik !!! THIS is one that I ALWAYS wondered about.....she hasn't posted in a long time--can someone tell me WHAT this is? I've also always wondered about who this is, and I always mean to ask, but I forget. THIS one is sooo cute and cracks me up! Last one..... who is this?

Ha! I know Gayle's - it's Jayne from the TV series Firefly. I smile every time I see it. Mine is pretty self explanatory.

Mine is a photo I took when the famous Whitbread around the world yacht race came to Annapolis (where I live). It's since been renamed the Volvo Ocean yacht race since 2001 but I'd been reading about it for years prior to when they came here so I always call it the Whitbread race which is the British brewing company that was it's original sponsor. That's the name that's cemented in my head.
Annapolis is known as the World Capital of Sailing-we have a sign when you enter the city that says this, and I love sailing so this photo seemed like the right one for my profile pic.

We had a thread once about the flaming one from Nicole. I've forgotten what it was.
Mine is a painting I like.

At some point Dalai you are going to have to post a pic of the dildo. 😁🤣😝 That IS the picture! Dildo is actually a small town on the bay where I grew up. I come from an island of awesome place names (Blow Me Down, Tickle Cove, Belly Button Cove, Heart’s Ease, Come By Chance, Heart’s Delight); Dildo tends to be the one everyone remembers. (In Newfoundland a ‘dildo’ is the pin that pegs an oar to a boat.)

Not sure which account I’m on—MsKnit or AlsoMsKnit.
MsKnit is Aragorn from the Lord of the Rings movies. I like both the character and the actor, Viggo Mortenson.
If it’s AlsoMsKnit, it’s the kiwi because I’ve never thought to change it. The Also account was because it was easier to just create a new account than look for the information to access the original account.

(In Newfoundland a ‘dildo’ is the pin that pegs an oar to a boat.) Interesting---thanks for explaining. I always assumed it was an actual sign in another country, (and kept meaning to google!).......and as an American, I only know one meaning, so I find it humorous! (oh, and can you explain your first response---"dude"---I don't understand? ) peasquared ---Your boyfriend is very cute I don't recognize him---is he an actor?

Mine means I was manic and up for several days in a row, but had tickets to the Spurs game that night so I threw on clean clothes and went as is even though I was about to fall over. Not a flattering photo at all, but was of a defining point in my life (just learning of my bipolar diagnosis and how to manage it) and damn it, I went. Go me. Also, still a Spurs fan.

If I were up for several days in a row, I would look nowhere near this cute! I just figured it was a cute photo - what a great story of what it means to you. =)

Mine is our lab, Emma, taken when she was a small puppy. She was out chasing butterflies in the yard. The whole family was out there and it was so sweet.

<----- Morrissey, the greatest songwriter and wit in living history. totally - this is why 16 year olds should *not* get a tattoo... cuz if i could have gotten one this: And if a double-decker bus Crashes into us To die by your side Is such a heavenly way to die And if a ten-ton truck Kills the both of us To die by your side Well, the pleasure - the privilege is minewould be plastered on my body in some fancy script. so yah. my pic is the view outside my door... houses across the street... especially poignant for me since i am going thru a divorce and will need to give up my house, which breaks my heart.

It serves as a good reminder of my inner strength for me Of course, it was about 15 years ago. If I went ‘as is’ these days I wouldn’t look like that

mine is of a painting one of my kids did in elementary school. They both did the same picture a couple years apart because they had the same art teacher. I think it was done in the 3rd grade. To be honest, I'm not sure if <<< is DD's or DS's because both are so similar. I love it because I love art, love that a (my) kid did it and I love and admire that art teacher. She put her whole heart into the job and brought out the best in the kids. My DD is still friends with her. She may have outlined in pencil the figure (?) and let the kids go from there, copying with watercolors the original Woman with a Parasol by Claude Monet. I was and still am amazed how well they turned out.

Well, I used to have a winter profile & a summer profile but there was a thread once about people getting confused when profile pictures were changed so I stopped switching.
The winter one was a painted wooden snowman I had painted The summer one is a picture of Tulips I took one spring 6 years ago, they weren’t even my tulips but a friend of DD’s lol
