Not a self portrait, this was shot by the photgrapher I was working with last weekekend. My camera, wide angle lens. I told him to keep the nose small. I shall now have to shoot him.

Heh.. you think that's funny? Take a gander at this one (shot with the Sony Mavica of 199X, pre-megapixel vintage)! Rarely have I ever looked like such a goof..

Wicked My mug shot

The reason I am on the other side of the camera!

In brightest day
In blackest night
No shootee shall escape my sight
beware my camera
its flash is bright!

Why do you call yourself "MainFragger"? Anything to do with fragging? As in "fragging" of corals?

Wasn't fragging a term from the Vietnam war?
referring to shooting your commanding officer. (going from memory, and probably movie memory at that)

Back in 1990, I got my first 1200 baud modem. At the time Lobo:The Mini-Series had just come out. It was a comedic re-rendition of an old Omega Men villain who was an intergalactic hitman. He used the term Frag! instead of F*** and referred to people as mother fraggers, but also used it to describe himself and others as killers. I liked the comic enough, that Fragger was my first handle.
Years later, Quake came out, and my handle was no longer sacred. For a while I got away with Fragger69, but soon you couldn't enter in Fragger on a new site without getting Fragger542021032982849. So since Lobo also referred to himself as The Main Man! I changed my handle to MainFragger.

Now that we got that out of the way..I got a question...

I uploaded my mug, saved right under where it asked me to do that, but my mug is not part of my message. What gives?

That is indeed the original meaning of it. But not the intended meaning in this case. Although, the use of it in the comicbook I got it from is only about 20 degrees off from that meaning in some cases. In other cases, it is merely used as an obscenity on a comic that needs to be Comic Authority approved.

Hithere.... wxwax(y) has a link somewhere.... I couldn't find it ...
But uploaded picts are usually at the bottom.
If you are using smugmug or another internet site you can use the pict icon on top of the message window to link it to your message .
Otherwise let the others make it more clear to you .....

Fragging is also used in online action gamming. A frag is a kill, a fragfest is a big battle, etc. Score is counted in (often) frags.
