You have probably seen this but another thread reminded me of it http://tapping.stargate-sg1.hu/da_hair.php

[AGateFan]

I set the av size to 60 x 60

What do you think now?

I think that looks a bit better. Its a great AV. Maybe someday I will have to switch to Sam too, but I would have to do a rotating thing because I love all the characters equally. Too bad the AVs are too small to make a good Team one.

If you want to rotate the av - I think you have to do it manually rather than using a php script

It would be nice to have bigger avs 100 x 100 would be fine

I saw it on LMN too...and then I ordered it off of Amazon... It's the French version so its title is actually "Souvenir d'amour" and here's something funny...Amanda's listed as the main actress in it. Sorry Eva LaRue.

That's more like it!

Do we need to spoiler 10 year old movies that have nothing to do with Stargate???

Well I'm going to NOT do that and if anyone has an issue...well, just deal.

He gets custody of the girl thanks to his mother primarily (I know, that was a shock too). As he's going down the courthouse steps, Linda's (Amanda) there too and they all share a family moment...

Then it jumps to the little girl all grown up and going to meet her younger sibling who was taken from them. She mentions how wonderful it was growing up with her uncle and Linda. She brings her mother's broach as a gift for the child.

And that's it!

Thanks, Uber! Pretty much as I expected, but I was hoping for more with Amanda. At least I didn't miss much.
Thanks annsgcfan too for your link .

Awww, what special was this? I don't remember these pictures. Was this the one where they showed SG-1, Atlantis and BSG?

Hey Kat,
Yeah, you're exactly right - it's from the SciFi Inside: SciFi Friday that they showed like right before Season 9 started. AT was accepting her Saturn Award and right after they showed a couple of scenes with her and these behind the scenes shots, while AT was talking about how Sam's character will develop this season. I just thought it was too funny to see her laugh right after they started taping.
What I was really impressed with was when Amanda read what she had written down about wormholes - OMG - how cool was that.

[Dani76]

Wow, ChopinGal, Congratulations on being post 14000 (on page 700!!!) and what a way to celebrate it - I love it - awesome! Your poem is so great, I had to quote it.

I do enjoy Banjos, Pianos, Organs, and Accordions
But as my man the Bird would say
We don't play the Saxophone
We let it play us
Since it is truly the BEST!

ya know what? as long as amanda likes it, i like it.

it aint' on my head

I think her hair is just fine and i also know that there are folks that literally hate the air she breaths, so i don't pay much attention to thier opinions

and, shockingly enough, i think i kinda miss daniel's peach fuzz. it gave him a more studly look, imho
