I had given up on this apparently a little too soon.
I thought it had died off, and having just checked in saw some beautiful pics for the first time.
I know its been a while but I hope some will respond with pics now.
If I ever get my desktop working properly, I promise I will get some pics on here, hell I started the thread, its only fair.
I still would like to see some old stuff, complete with the hairdos and clothes.humpty dumpty was pushed -
