Funnily enough whenever people call littlemanpoet lmp I consistently misread it as Imp and sort of imagine him as a jovial leprechaun.

I actually did not realize that it says Lmp and not Imp until I put things together and understoon that lmp, Elempi, and littlemanpoet are actually the same person. Before that, I fully thought someone is being called an imp.

*coughs* I would like to say that I do believe I was one of the first to call littlemanpoet lmp, but I think he did me one better by turning it into elempi.

I usually tend to imagine people looking very similar to their avatars.
This is very interesting when it comes to people like Galadriel.

Just so you know, I look almost identical to my avatar, but with a regal composure and menacing eyes.

There used to be a separate Photo Page that is still linked at the top of the forum, but it seems to be out of action.
This thread gives some faces behind the avvies, though.

Here is another good thread for member photos.

Talk about a blast from the past. The original photo-page is full of such memories--back before Facebook, when anonymity was actually normal on the Internet, those were (for most of us) our first real pictures of other Downers--and goodness are some of us young back then!

Hot.

I'm glad to see this thread was upped! I've been meaning to go back to it myself to share some thoughts about newer downers but will have to save it till later - or, well, earlier is the right word here.

Is it just me, or doesn't the photo page work?

There's also a Barrow-Downs facebook group for those who are on facebook!

Yes, I recall how exciting it was when the photo-page got updated with new photos... I also recall that I was quite exited about peoples reactions to my own photo.
