Matching a name to a face

Post by Root »

I met so many people last Friday at the Zone 1 meetup, and I have forgotten most of their names, who they are on the forum and what they look like :?. Call me forgetful, but I think it'd be great to have a thread where people can post a picture of themselves and give us their real name, so we know who we are meeting at events like last week's.

Of course, all aspects of this are optional. If you want to post a picture but not disclose your name, or vice-versa, feel free.

I have a picture of everyone at the challenge, taken on my camera by the guy from the Aussie magazine, who interviewed me and others for a piece which will be appearing soon.

I can make a version of the picture with numbers on the faces, and then you can all tell each other which number you are.

I'll sort it out tonight.

And would you believe it, someone's beaten you to it :D

Here's the pic with the faces:

And here it is with people's faces replaced with numbers:

And for anyone wondering about 31, it's not that I count in some strange way, I just missed it by not scrolling far enough across - the rest of the
numbers are in a loosley logical order.

These are just the ones I know, apologies to anyone I've missed out that shouldn't have done! Like Hakan's fellow Swedes towards the right - I'm simply too useless to remember who was who (or indeed just remember the names full stop....)

1 - Root (Ollie)
2 - Nozzacook
3 - hwolge (Hakan)
5 - zeibura (Sam)
8 - Going Underground (Kevin)
9 - David Scard
10 - T'Underground Masker (CrunchySaviour)
11 - TheFatBuoy (Pete - me)
12 - Hannah
13 - Chris Presswell
16 - Stephen Karahan's teammate (sorry, don't know your name!)
17 - can't see face for the gold
31 - Alan
22 - Jack Welsby
23/24 - team that we met at Notting Hill Gate - don't know your names - sorry!
25 - Nic? (Sam's friend)
26 - tpfkar (Ric Bracenbury)
27 - tubeguru (Neil)
28 - G_Force (Stephen Knight)
30 - Senji

Neil, has your photo got more people than that on it? (as there are definitely a few faces missing)

And both pages don't exist anyway. I can't see either.

Shoddy.

It should work now - I thought I was copying them from one place to another, but the software just didn't seem to do anything, so I closed it, then something else happened, them something else, now it probably works.

Yup. You've got the measure of me!

That is possibly the most amateurish face-numbering I've ever seen ... you can't see the faces!

You need to refer to both pictures simultaneously to work out who's who ...

AMATEURISH? Did you hear that, children? He had the cheek to call that piece of perfection "Amateurish" :D

How dare you! That took me hours to do!

Well, these fora are quite good in that each link opens in a new window, so that's not *too* hard to overcome.

I'm sorry to say, that whilst my photoshop-style skills are approaching perfection, I have the HTML knowledge of a small vole, so nowt fancy from me in that respect :D

Hey, Neil - over here mate - I've got your irony pills - you dropped them :D

That was the work of about 2 minutes on my PC.....

I would have worried if it HAD been the work of hours ...

Do you want me to do a "proper" version tonight? :-)

Heh - might be an idea - though I think there's a certain charm in the slapdasheryness of mine :P

children children

stop your bickering or you won't get your pocket money

Hx

p.s. I happen to very much like your numbering, Pete. It appears that Neil still isn't over his ludicrous defeat on friday and is playing macho-photoshop-man.
