      - Thanks. The fact that I only understood about 1/3 of your post should probably tell me that I'm not ready to go pro. -- nm - Fuzzy Feb 12, 13:28
    - Thanks for the feedback -- nm - Fuzzy Feb 12, 13:15 4

  - hmmm, I think I agree with spawn. what else are you considering? -- nm - loosilu Feb 12, 12:42 3
    - I think this one might work really well. -- (link) - loosilu Feb 12, 12:46 [flickr] 2

        I think it's a good picture, but you don't want to put an unsmiling kid on your card. -- nm - loosilu Feb 12, 13:26
  - Uhm... how big is the card going to be? - Spawn Feb 12, 12:35
- That just makes it artsy. -- nm - Spawn Feb 12, 12:19
