Why so many with no pics?

Just curious... Why so many regular posters refrain from adding a pic to their profile.

Now don't get me wrong, I don't think this is a dating service or such, but it is a lot easier for me to recall people when I have a face to go with a name.

Typically I tend to avoid a lot of enthusiast situations because I get people talking to me all the time about my "Shaggy" posts. It is usually uncomfortable for me because I get embarassed about not knowing who they are.

Of course, I posted mine being the hunky piece of man meat that I am... not! LOL

Where's those pics?

Well, I have "wanted" to do it. Just lazy, I guess.

The reason I waited so long is that I never had a digital camera or scanner until December! I would bet that is why most people don't post pics.

The pic I finally posted was much better than the few current pics of myself I have.

I actually sbumitted one a couple days ago, but it hasn't appeared yet.

I have one, but I'm thinking about changing it. My face looks too dark and the pic isnt that great.

I went to Sandusky, but there was no Callahan factory

I don't have a digital camera or a scanner. I barely have a computer.

No scanner. No picture. I like to keep em guessing.

The word "definitely" is definitely the most misspelled word on the buzz.

I would,but I don't have a scanner or a digital camera yet.My printer just died as well,so now I have got to replace that as well.Also,once I get those items,it is going to take me a while to figure out how to use it,as I am still very computer challenged.When I was a kid,we did not have computers in school.

I have a great photo of my oldest son and I in the front seat of the Vancouver PNE Coaster that was taken right before his first ride on it.I would love to put it on this site.

I can fix anything.....where is the duct tape?

I have a scanner and a digital camera...but.... my stupid computer is so old that the USB gave out on it and now anything that has to do with USB doesn't work!

There is NoLimit when it comes to Roller Coasters.
NoLimitChic's Coaster Page

The only place I have pictures of myself stored on my computer is on AOL's "You've Got Pictures" service. Is there anyway to get those pcitures onto your CoasterBuzz info? Jeff? Anyone?

Man meat?

-shudders-

I agree... I don't know that many people outside of the regular Cedar Point crowd (much of which is a semi-PKI crowd). Not that I'm going to study the photos or anything, but it does help if I know someone will be there!

Eh, mine is 2 years old now. I need to change it to something sexier. :p

If the shoe fits, find another one.

I had to change mine since I'm not sporting the long locks anymore. Either that, or I'm trying to do my best nasai (Rob) hairdo.

I should probably change mine since it's a few years old. But I HATE having my picture taken. The older I get, the more I hate it.

I want my 30 year old look back

I'd rather die living than live like I'm dead

I'm working on it...just haven't had time to scan my pics.

I get the feeling there's a conspiracy over at King's Island to remove anything that has "K" or "C" in its initials.

My bowling-pin shape is pretty unforgettable, though.
Strangely enough, I didn't even notice there *WAS* an option for pics. I'm not the type that has many pictures of myself, but I think I registered to post and just ignored the Profile page since.

I'll have to go crop something and submit it so you guys know what I look like for Coastermania (and if I can get the extra time off, Coasterbuzzcon!).

I just put my picture up, I'm not sure if it's up yet but you can check.

Medusa rears it's ugly head. A monster coaster unlike the world has ever seen. Your strapped to a flying chair, 14 stories in the air! Just don't look down, you can turn to stone! Only at Six Flags Great Adventure! Buy one season ticket admission get one

Mine's there, I am the ugly one on the right as opposed to the cute one on the left ;)

Does CCI know how to make a bad coaster?

Brian, your pic makes you look a bit angry...(as if I made you buy the CD!) I liked the other pic better, but this one is certainly a lot closer. I should update my pic, but then again, people can go to my website to see the new and improved me. Lately, it has been blue hair...... Yes, I know ;)
