sometimes it is nice to actually see a photo of where we all work and what we look like. So here is a back shot of me in the "management" office. As you can see I am, patriotically, reading something on CodeProject. Also as the evidence proves I am clutching a cup of coffee in my left hand. *twitch* need caffeine. Also here is a shot of our management team in front of the chopper we went up in as part of the office christmas party day. I am second from the left (guy with glasses and a goofy hair "style".) I want to see some of you actually working and in your offices. * excuse the quality of the photos. I see now why APS is not such a good format and also I decided to keep the size of the images down with a bit of JPEG compression. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa Do you Sonork?

Hey Paul, I did those t-shirts. What will you charge me for four of them 9and what do they say on the front)? "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001

We did a website for a shirt maker and we then subsequently got some good rates from them for small orders on shirts. I don't know the exact figure but they came out to, shirt and embroidery included, about R90 (USD$6.9 ) a shirt. The problem is that if the shirts arent for us then they take a minimum order of about 5000 shirts. Just a tip but if you want shirts then try CafePress. You can design the shirt (or I can help out if you want) and then setup a free online store. You can order your own shirts at cost price (about USD$16 I think). I made some of my own shirts for the heck of it and it was really easy. (hey Chris, if you read this then note that CafePress seem to be using ASP.NET now. All their pages are .aspx files :-D wOOt!) regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa Do you Sonork?

Okay, I probably shouldn't do this, but ...

I especialy like to relax with an amber beauty and a cigar. My cottage provides the perfect location for just those activities. Chris Meech

Can anybody else view the image fully? When I view it it only downloads half the pic and then IE says "done". Which is obviously wrong. I have seen this happen on other sites too, not a lot but more than enough to irritate me. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa Do you Sonork?

Whenever I see a pic of you I cannot believe it. That mild mannered looking guy cannot be John Simmons. Just not possible. You look like a god fearing, church going, fete running, pta heading goody two shoes.

You wouldn't be running the MS Censor addin for IE would you. ;P After all it is a bare chested shot. You might also try to FTP the file and then view it locally. I'll have to put up some Christmas shots next week. Everyone can have a good laugh at some of those. Chris

Sheeee-it John, that's a nice bow. I'm dying to find a local range where I can get back to it. Haven't shot much since I forced our school team into second place in the provincial finals... I'm sure they would have placed first if I had have kept my arrows on my target. :P And those are gorgeous goldens. :) We lost ours about a year ago, and I miss her a tonne. Got a kid on the way, so as soon as that gets worked out, I'm bringin home a golden puppy. J

That's a Hoyt Mystic Meridian with stock cams. Pull is currently about 55 pounds, and I'm shooting Easton carbons with the smallest flights I can get. The sight and arrow rest cost me almost $400, and I use a Stanislawski release. I started out shooting at single-spot targets but I was ruining a LOT of arrows (I still have my first robin-hood set). After destroying a dozen or so arrows shooting robin-hoods, I started shooting at 5-spot targets. I got bored with that and set up a flower vase in fron of the target back with freshly cut flowers, and started shooting at the bees that came for the nectar. A lot of bees have died in my back yard with an arrow lodged firmly up their sphincters.

Hmmm. Mine's a green fibreglass recurve with hockey tape holding the $4 sight on, and a $3 stick-on arrow-rest. I use the custom Hale release (3-finger). I started out shooting pyramids of pop-cans but I was ruining a LOT of pop-cans. I progressed to garbage cans, power transformers and large stuffed animals (Big Bird put up a good fight, but couldn't stuff his innards back in as fast as I was spilling them). Seriously, though. Nicest bow I ever saw was my coach's. Olympic style non-composite. Just nice moulded wooden grip, and a single balancing thingy out the front. He wasn't a great shot, but he made it look like an art.

Hey, we have 5 webcams in our office (just for fun, really). It's rather cool to have them. Like a virus, we infected several customers of us with the webcam-virus, too. Now they have webcams all over their desks, too :-) -- See me: www.magerquark.de

Having looked at the two pictures, I have come to the conclusion that you are *not* a bonifidi developer for the following reasons: 1. Your desk is too tidy. 2. There is a MAC on your desk. 3. You are doing something mildly related to programming. (i.e. this site) :-D There are some pictures of me on the net under the news section on our compant web site. They are of us at our annual tug of war competition in the village where we work, so if your interested take a look at http://www.sirius-analytical.com/news3.htm Roger Allen Using his mates account while his computer is repaired :((
