Snowb4ndit,
My daughter woke up so I got her to do an avatar for me.

The photo was taken in VT a couple of weeks ago by a professional photographer working for Prosneige, the ski school.

You can't see, because it's too small, but I am looking rather anxious, and concentrating very hard. We were up the top of one of the mountains, when the instructor said they were doing a photo shoot over a jump, if we wanted to have a go.

There was a class in front of us, and we watched these 4 year olds going over the jump, and nearly all of them landed up sitting on the back of their skis. So I decided to go slowly and carefully, so I wouldn't be smashed out on the snow in the photo. The jump was only about a foot high, but I did actually take off, and land O.K. not on top of the photographer, or my instructor, or anyone else.

So I bought the photo - very expensive - 10 euros. But as you said, it is a nice photo. The funny thing about it, is that I always pretend I'm on a horse when I'm going over a jump, because I used to ride a lot when I was young, and the action is pretty similar. And in this photo, the enlarged version I mean, you can 'see' the horse if you use a bit of imagination.

I always pretend I'm on a bicycle, going down without using my hands, weaving from side to side, when I'm carving, so presumably if anyone took a photo of me doing this, you'd be able to 'see' the bicycle.

I hope Ian likes the avatar as well - specially made by my daughter for him.

That all happened to me first time too Amanda. I just started from sratch and was able to see the whole thing second time around.

Thanks Caron, I have just upgraded my mac to ilife 09 and it definitely gives that little more of a professional finish, I'll pass your comments on to Mrs W about the jacket :) :D :mrgreen:
