I am considering rotating images, perhaps monthly, in place of our generic icons for members who do not add a photo. If you agree, perhaps I will start with your profile sketch! But that would mean the you would have to find another for yourself, as your sketch would take the place of ALL the generic silhouettes! Please let me know if that is something you would like to do. Of course, I will be happy to add a "thank you" to our Notes section. What do you think? If you like the idea, you would need to email me the photo at admin@barnmice.com If the idea is not for you, no worries at all, but I though I'd ask. :)
