ALFA's poseur #1
gribo added.
pragmatic (adj.)
The opposite of idealistic is pragmatic, a word that describes a philosophy of "doing what works best."
From Greek pragma "deed," the word has historically described philosophers and politicians who were
concerned more with real-world application of ideas than with abstract notions. A pragmatic person
is sensible, grounded, and practical.

My critique of the candidates.
Ak3mi - black and white, and melodramatic... tre poseur.
Boom - quite possibly has more incarnations of himself than I do... and that's impressive.
Joos - i think joos lacks the self-importance to be a poseur... but that's a good thing.
Mord - he used a self-portrait as an avatar... can't go wrong there...
Lafter - Shades + sweet car = poseur
ecclessia - you'd be hard pressed to find a more fashionable DM anywhere.
Xerxes - sunglasses and leather pants... definite poseur points.
Fionn - like Joos, Fionn doesn't strike me as a poseur... a good "poser" maybe...
NickD - drawn backgrounds. The "pose" and shades are also good for poseur points.
Zer00 - shave the legs, man... go all out. Nice wings though.
Gribo - Making USB cables sexy... wait? is that a drop shadow? BAN!
If I had to vote now, I'd say Ak3mi, Boom, Xerxes, and myself are the most "poseur," but that's only because the others haven't spent as much time being vain and taking pictures of themselves. A few more personal photoshoots, and we'd have a real quandary on our hands... so many poseurs for such a small community

Ohhhh, sure, Halloween, of course. I still remember the first I time I went to Halloween like that, in my case, in a French Maid costume. Very cute. You are well on your way Zer00, but to help you along, I will gather up some materials and contact information for Transgender support groups in your area. Oh, and if you are going to wear a tiara honey, you cannot wear flats.I hate you all, it was the jewish halloween damnit.

Indeed. Posting gay pictures must give plenty good poseur-points! And Hakkman... WTF? I will never forgive you... *cwies*

Request: Since I can't, could someone who can, change this into a
poll with the listed individuals in the initial post as items to
vote on? Also, I would appreciate a namechange of the topic from
Pre-Poll to nothing, just what is after "Pre-Poll" since remaking
the topic into a poll will add "Poll" to the topic.
Thank you.
