Since the original member pics thread has reached over 550 pages, we've decided that maybe a once a year thread would be good! It will allow members to start at the beginning and work their way through, and hopefully it will promote this thread a bit more!

The purpose of this thread is to let members show a picture of themselves so that other members can put a face to a membername hoopefully making this community a more tight-knit one where everyone knows your name and face.

* If you plan to img-embed your picture, please try to keep it under 100k (It's recommended that you link it, externally).

* Stay within the board ruleset, no matter how yummy you may believe it to be.

* If you are going to quote, there isn't a need to quote an img-embeded picture - Just don't do it. Please just reference the post by page number/page link/etc.

* The member pics thread is not to be used as a means to post images of a pornographic or otherwise provocative nature. We do not support a babes forum and neither will we in an unofficial capacity. Please help to keep the thread relevant and safe to browse for everyone.

* The moderators of this forum reserve the right to edit or remove your posts as necessary so they may comply with our Community Rules.

Happy posting :)

Eh...since I restarted the thread I suppose I have to start it with a pic too :p lol It's about a year old now but I don't have bunches of pictures so I'll just use it for now! Maybe I'll update it later.

Ahh why not - but if this is a whole new year thing I'm gonna do something a wee-bit different, and that's post a pic from around this time last year, and then one from now

Here's me around a year ago, based on my old staff card photo:

and here's me now:

(I don't usually look that scary - I blame it all on the Webcam :) )

That doesn't look like the same person! :o

That's what a few thousand miles on an exercise bike'll do to ya :) Nah I actually really, really hated that pic when it was taken, 'even though I'd already lost around 10lbs, now I've got it taped in my line of sight for when I'm on the bike, 'cause I don't really wanna go back to that (not so much the weight, more the way I used to feel then, versus how I feel now).

Hopefully the pic in 2010 should be similar to the 2009 pic :)

I have no idea how I captured that picture. I was hanging out of a friends sunroof going down the interstate on the way back from Nashville, with a plastic WalMart bag over my head. Yes alcohol was involved and I wasn't driving :p. Very interesting picture none-the-less. And I didn't edit it what-so-ever before anyone thinks that.

Get a new photo Andy :rofl:

No more shots of me till I injure my face again. Most likely this Friday, off to a 21st of my mate Darren Smith. Plays for Motherwell FC, most of the team should be out :D

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
