Please don't substitute Brad Pitt pictures for your own, that's against contest rules.

HEY! I didn't break the rules, that IS me. Its nice that you think I look like a movie star but don't accuse me of cheating just because I look like someone else. If you don't believe me I'll take a picture of myself with this thread in the background.

Well as far as planning and creativity we all know who wins this time. Nice one Borek.

Meh, I'm going to try and get mine resized and up (WISH I could just use it straight from my Myspace...) with no real intentions to win, just giving an updated pic of me.
