Well the GOOD NEWS is the baton has finally been passed.

Despite an overwhelming show of support in the poll (thank you Fortune Chan - your vote counted), I have only now been (un)named moderator of the "Pictures & Movies" Forum.
I can only assume my poor showing in "Twat of the year & Moderator for Fight Club", there may have been some lingering doubts as to my suitability for the role.
However, after promises of home-made mince pies to L-B for Xmas, the transition is complete and I have officially joined the ranks of the much reviled. (And about time too)

However, because of the abuse I will undoubtably receive I have requested anonymity

The AIM of the forum will be:

1) to show PHOTOS that are lamma related;
This is not just about slapping a few pictures on a forum wall, otherwise we might get some idiot posting photos all the time & taking trollism to a deeper level. The idea will be to not only offer critique but to give a greater understanding of the lengths that people go to to get that photo, also the equipment & method of obtaining that image (F-Levels, DOF, Aperature, Sensitivity, G-Strings, Flashlights, Lenses, etc, etc). There are plenty of renowned, accomplished, and professional photographers on Lamma, but we never get anything from them, so we'll have to go it alone & do as best we can.
But then again, any old pictures will be welcome (Lamma relative).

2) to highlight MOVIES written, produced and directed by Lamma residents and/ or their Mums, or at least had a walk on part. Up for first review & possible showing at a bar near you (if they'll allow it), will be movies from the effervescent Mr. Bruce Baron...., if I can get any copies from him. Also, anybody that's had an affair with a movie star, or a relative of theirs, & were they any good.
Reviews, recommendations of any movie will also be welcome.

The BAD NEWS.............
I bought my first camera 4 months ago & I haven't been to the movies for about 5 years.

And then there's the BURNING BUSH and the immortal words of Moses - "Okay whose dumb idea was this"

First picture of a relative of a Lamma resident.....

Welcome to the "official ranks of the much reviled", Mr Anonymous.

Soon you might also be entitled to a copy of Harry's book - which you'll have to pay for yourself, of course - signed and dedicated to [color=green]"(insert your name here instead of mine)... who gets more abuse tha Tung Chee Hwa. Well done!"[/color]

Let's start this forum off with reminding you that this is NOT a Fight Club forum and attacks on member's relatives are not welcome.

I'd also recommend you to get a hold of Photoshop or another photo-processing software, to improve and fine-tune your photos which seem to be getting much better steadily. But this photo above (what a mess!) is certainly not among them!

With a little minimal tweaking it would actually have been recognisable and you'd have recognised that this doesn't look at all like a member of the famous clan of Granola Eaters. Quite a superficial likeness, yes, but the unmistakable grin of the clan chief - a genetic family trait, I believe - is completely missing!
