WHY NOT HAVING A BOARD WITH FODORITES PHOTOS
 

Ok, I know that by starting this new thread I will be the "new troll in town", but ...who cares. Ready? Here I go!

I've been taking part to Fodors forum for about 2 years so far, and you know what happens when you are curious, you always try to immagine what's a Fodorite like behind a pseudonym. I like VirtualTravel board because members can put a picture linked to their pseudo and they can publish the pictures taken during their trips, and it's SO NICE!

I know I sound like Kramer in Seinfeld who wanted to put all the tennants pictures in the entrance hall so that everybody would get to know each other, and be more sociable....

So I was wondering, wouldn't it be nice to have such a thing here at Fodors? maybe the editors or the webmasters could create a members board where THOSE WILLING TO DO THAT OF COURSE could post their their pictures.

Does anyone have any idea?

I have no idea, but I like your idea.

The only thing I'd suggest is to have some way to remove a picture in case of stalking (yes, I've heard it happens here), or if for any reason somebody decides to leave permanently (happens often).

Maybe there is a way to post links to personal websites? There are some already.

Pics from 2 NJ/NY GTG's are posted on my photo website.

sfowler has a site where she's been kind enough to post many pics as well. Sorry, I don't know the link to it, but think there's a recent thread where she changed the url.

Here's the link to sfowler's site:

Thank you, Trish, but this won't help, unfortunately. This thread will eventually sink, and the search (dis)function doesn't work.

We need something different, maybe a link on the front page?

I don't have a picture to post. Does anyone have one of Brad Pitt we could use? That's close enough.

Oh Please Patrick! Tell me you shave more often than he does and don't have a wispy little beard!

Patrick, and I look just like Angelina Jolie! You are too funny!

I do like seeing the pictures of people at get togethers or when they stand in front of web cams as you did, Patrick, and I did also in Sorrento but few saw me. It's nice to put a face to a name.

Well of course, jodie. I said his picture would be close enough. I didn't mean to imply he was quite as good looking as I am. Sorry for the confusion.

Sorry, Patrick, the Brad Pitt pics bookmarked in my browser would likely not pass editorial scrutiny.

A while ago we played a dinner party game called 'Who would play me in a movie?'

The problem was that everyone else got to choose who played you.

There was a really obvious Reese Witherspoon, one of the girls we couldn't decide between Jody Forster/Holly Hunter.

Me? - they picked Ellen DeGeneres.

Well, alya, it could have been worse. They could have picked Dame Edna.

So? Who would you pick to play you in the story of your life?

Me? Bette Midler.

Patrick (aka Brad) - OMG! You're right, I did get off lightly! But it would have been nice to have been voted someone a little bit more ‘glamorous’

I hate the guy! He was 'big' in the UK but I always managed to avoid his talk shows, not my kind of humour I'm afraid.

I suppose I do share a quirky sense of humour with Ellen DG and she does seem like a h*ll of a lot of fun. I’d invite her to a Dinner Party anytime :-)

Now be honest, who would really play you? Perhaps I should start a new thread!

No, probably best not too – after all who would be really honest? We’d have lots of Sean Connery’s, Johnny Depp’s and J Lo’s!

hdm,

Who would I choose? Anyone Dead or Alive? And they don't have to look anything like me?

Dead, Jayne Mansfield, good old fashioned glamour - plus, we share a feature or 2 :-)

Alive, Emma Thompson, one of the best!

My friend who is a somewhat known actor thinks Drew Barrymore should play me. I would like to see Alfre Woodward as me in my life story. I'm not black, but I like her soulful womanly ways and appearance. I've always wanted Alfre Woodard to play me, and Drew Barrymore may be a bit like young me, but Alfre is more like me noa.

Hey BATUFFOLINA, can we hold off this project until I look better, LOL!

Glad to share my picture

Thank you Sabine for the link, I couldn't see any picture of you but I loved your site and I think you are a wonderfully strong woman.

Which person is sea urchin on the web site? There are four or five people milling around in Sorrento.
