Bah, Photoshop and PSP are naf. GiMP forever! :shock:
Flappy~
You're right, of course. I had the GiMP on my old SGI machines and loved it. Should really find a copy for the Mac, since they're all UNIX-based now.

Whilst we all have different ideas about what acceptable behaviour should be in public places many landlords and their staff will decide that two guys openly snogging away in the middle of their pub is beyond acceptance and I doubt the guys would be staying very long.
When I was snogging Jon at the hotel bar after the Notts Much, the staff reaction was quite different: Rather than paying attention to their pouring, they were staring at us - and I ended up with nearly half a litre of white wine in my glass!

On the whole they are great mahines, I would not use anything else on a day to day basis.
Indeed. I downgraded to a Mac in the early '00s, and now would have nothing else. And, for those who think they're too expensive, you can now get a quite capable Mac system for £339-. *just doing my part as a certified Mac evangelist*

P.S. to BradfordCpl: I think Vix has already PM'd you, but if you'd like me to take a look at your avatar, just send the .psd file to the e-mail address in our ad.

Depends...would I be allowed to snog them?! :twisted:
Seriously, I would welcome a gay couple at any party or social event. Our little community here is all about diversity; and, at an event like a munch, you get the rare opportunity to experience that diversity face-to-face. I wouldn't perceive them any differently than anyone else.
If we're talking about private meets (i.e. "with intent"), however, that might be a slightly different story. I tend to be jaded against anyone who isn't even remotely bi-curious, whether they be male or female, so meeting up with a 100% gay couple would be as unlikely for Vix & me as meeting with one that's 100% straight.

How does anyone EVER contact them without disregarding the sig?
Is a stumper, innit? Perhaps they just want to participate publicly in the forums and nothing more (i.e. "mental swingers"). Perhaps one or the other of them has had a bad experience with PMs that compromised the trust of their relationship in some way. Perhaps they're just antisocial buggers, who knows? In any case, I'd just write 'em off an move on.
Once, whilst trolling the photo ads, I encountered one from a young lady who started off with all of the usual "I'm looking for _____" business and then closed with "Please don't PM or e-mail me, or I'll get in trouble!" What's the point of the ad if there's no agreeable means of contact? Bit pointless, if you ask me.

Then when they shout at you you can blame me
I take that as an open invitation, my dear, and have thus appended my sig! :P

Sadly no one has ever covered me in chocolate and thrown me to the lesbians... however if someone would like to then I dont think I would be complaining ;-)
You've not spent nearly enough time with Vix & myself then, have you?! ;)
~Reese! :love:
Are you calling me a lesbian :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
"I'm a lesbian, and so's my wife." And, yes, you can be, too! Just figured it would increase our chances with Jon, under the circumstances. Now, I just need to find a plausible explanation for my unfeasibly-large clitoris.

Quote by Ice Pie
Also in Idaho, two persons of opposite sexes who are under one blanket with their shoes off are legally defined as having sex.
Bloody hell! You mean I had sex with a colleague's missus during a trip to Boise in '87 and didn't even know it?! :shock: *carves another notch in the bedpost* Guess I should ring Dr. P and fess up now...

From my own experience, I'd say it's perfectly normal. Vix & I met on-line in a community forum for a distributed computing project on cancer research. We'd responded to each other's posts from time to time and then started exchanging a few PMs of a more personal nature. Then she talked me into getting ICQ and IM for my Mac so we could chat - and chat we did! Within just a few weeks, we were totally inseperable...and, after three months, we'd made a firm commitment to find some way we could be together.
During the first six months, though, our relationship was built entirely upon text-based chat across the Atlantic (I lived in Florida at the time). I didn't even have a web cam at the time, so the only time we "saw" each other was when one or the other of us would share a photo via e-mail. Finally, I got myself a passport and made the long journey over to the UK for our first face-to-face meet. Although I'd never travelled that far outside of the U.S. in my life, I was totally comfortable and secure in "taking the plunge" because we had made a commitment to each other and it felt as if we were already an "established couple".
Thus, I think it's perfectly reasonable to develop strong attachments without physically having met a person. Perhaps it's even better that way, as your normal judgements are suspended for a while and you get to truly know what's inside the individual. I didn't know what Vix looked like - or even what sex she was, for that matter - when we first started our on-line relationship (and, if I had, I would have instantly recognised that she "wasn't my type"!). Our connection was purely intellectual, emotional and spiritual, based wholly upon the thoughts we shared with each other during our on-line chats...and we all know where that can lead!

Having recognised myself as bisexual since I was about 12, I'm surprised to say that I've never encountered any grief from anyone over it. The friends I had during my teens knew about it, but most of them were "alternative outcasts" in some form or another anyway - so we were all deemed unacceptable by the public at large!
When I got married for the first time at the age of 20, I put that part of myself into the closet. My wife knew that I'd had bi- experiences; but, due to the commitment of our marriage, we were both well aware that I'd never act upon it. Thus, apart from my occasional camp behaviour, we deliberately and successfully kept my sexual orientation from our mutual friends. Perhaps we weren't quite as successful as I'd thought, though, because, when she & I were splitting up after 17 years of marriage, a fair number of our friends commented to her, "You mean he's finally come out?!" :P
All of this changed when I met Vix. She was aware of my orientation from the outset of our relationship (in fact, she and her best friend originally thought that I was gay based upon a few of the early photos I'd shared with them!). Thus, for the first time since my teens, I decided it was time to "just be me"...thanks to the new-found comfort with myself and security that Vix had brought into my life.
This time, however, it wasn't merely restricted to our private relationship. Since we moved to our little village near Glastonbury, we've been totally up-front with everyone regarding both our sexuality and swinging (and, many of you know, Vix can be quite up-front!). ;) The level of acceptance we've received has been quite a pleasant surprise. Sure, they may talk behind our backs when we're not around, but who cares? No one's ever made a big deal about it, even when Vix & I bring our "dates" to the pub!
At our weekly pub quiz recently, Vix was bantering innuendo back and forth with a male acquaintance of ours when he suddenly went a bit blank. Vix then turned to me and asked, "Does he not know the games we play?" When I replied that he & I had never discussed it, she decided it best to go to the loo whilst I filled him in (as it were). I simply told him that we sometimes go out socially - be it with men, women or couples - then take them home and fuck them. He was speechless for a moment, but didn't bat an eyelid. If I'd said that to a bloke while we were living in Swindon, I'd probably not be alive today to tell the story! :shock:
So perhaps it's due to the unconventionality of where we live - I don't know - but I feel fortunate that I've not had to endure the persecution that seems to be so common toward such "alternative" folk as ourselves.
