I thought it was 'that wouldn't accept' people like him, but I might be wrong. You're probably right. ^_^ *pats matoto on the head and moves on before he can get offended*

AsA: Your sig is a pre-raphaelite painting by John William Waterhouse and is entitled 'My Sweet Rose' or 'Soul of a Rose'. My friends used to have a print in their house and it, along with 'Hylas and the Nymphs', sparked a personal interest in pre-raphaelite art.

I love your avvy Ravenna. It makes me smile every time I see it. You should look into getting one from his character in the three musketeers movie made a few years back. He was pretty no-nonsense then too. Of course, Keifer Sutherland is kinda one of those type-cast guys who's always going to play the same person in every movie he does. He's kinda like Jimmy Stewart, or Tom Cruise  _________________ :: I'm six foot four, an all-American guy, and handsome and talented as well! :: |

lol, I kind of wanted my avvie to be an inside joke deal, but I'll share.
The stylized "B" is from a game called Silener, which was released in an online only format...like a decade ago now. Wow, I feel old! Anyhow, the game's re-relased if anyone's interested, but I don't have the connection to play it right now.
The game had several organizations fighting for government research data, and I mean physically fighting. On Mars surface, also. Lots of explosions and traps and heart-pounding action. 2D side-scroller, great fun.
There was Noxis, and Lazarus, and Static, and some C I can't remember. "B" stood for the Black Rose organization. The Black Rose were an elite group of agents, who were not permitted by their organization to work together. The Black Rose specialized in neurotoxin and slow-death poison, and were also masters of disguise (could appear as civilians and look convincing).
Because you were just one man, and other organizations could have as many as there were available (in games of ... Black Rose were elite agents. I wear my organization's symbol as a badge of pride to this day.

| You might want to get a better quality camera, Squee, it's rather hard to see your features in that pic. |
