Gimp, bitches.

However, I took that one using an in-camera, cheesy, sepia effect. Gimp was just for cropping out the rest of the face.

    I think Mags is browsing the entire forum in order to win, because she wants to get flowers.

    Hi xzc, if you want my opinion -- since i don't like beards anyway, get rid of most of it and just leave a little stubble. It'll make you look a bit rugged and with those beautiful blue eyes of yours - really very very nice. Oh, I just saw the image on the right. So more like that one.
    "Look closely. The beautiful may be small."


    "Two things fill the mind with ever new and increasing admiration and awe, the oftener and more steadily we reflect on them: the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me."


    “Whereas the beautiful is limited, the sublime is limitless, so that the mind in the presence of the sublime, attempting to imagine what it cannot, has pain in the failure but pleasure in contemplating the immensity of the attempt.”

    The stubble is a good idea. It has all the benefits of me still doing this

    and none of the disadvantages of looking homeless.

    Well, THAT is not just stubble and that's a scary creature. :lol:
    Anyway, you don't look homeless in the left image.

    This is stubble - well, maybe a little less than that. I hate too hairy! You can't really pull stubble, xzc :mrgreen:
