    On another thread, Zoochatters were listing which forumites they have met in real life. But what about the forumites that you never met? Surely you have a mental image of them?

    This could easily devolve into a deleted thread, but it's just meant as a bit of fun. So, what do you think I look like?

    For example, I picture Chlidonias to be a man, 6ft tall, heavyset, pony tail, glasses and goatee.

    Hix, I picture a middle-aged man, about 55 years old, greying hair parted to the side, glasses, clean shaven, dressed in chinos and polo tshirts.

    DavidBrown I picture to be a 20-something university student, male, typing at his laptop in his dorm, wearing an "I love giraffes" tshirts.

    Over to you. :D

    pretty good, depending on what you mean by heavyset. But I wear contacts. And I prefer the term "devil-beard".

    not a huge muscle-man. I haven't competed for quite a few years. Funnily enough, the few other Zoochatters I've met have always been after my trips when I lose a lot of muscle. When I met NZJeremy I think I was 21kg under my usual weight because I'd lost so much muscle over in Indonesia (that was my five-and-a-half month trip).

    I can never tell when you are joking around. :D
    So, I will change my image to 5ft 4in, skinny, acne.

    Hix with a beard? Hmmm.... that could work too I suppose. Well-groomed, or Grateful Dead?

    Chlidonias described himself to me once as looking like a drug-dealer.

    And Jakari is correct, I have a beard. But Nanoboy has added several years to my age!

    I imagine Nanoboy to be pink with an orangey crest.

    :p

    I'm pink all right! Flaming pink - but don't tell my wife. :D

    Yeah you guys posted some top pics there. Chlidonias, that's kind of how I imagined you originally. The Mexican wrestling mask is a perfect addition. :D

    Gentle lemur - a gentle older gentleman (older than me I mean ;)) with kind eyes.

    Jarkari - clean shaven, 30-something year old man, short hair.
