Title: Yay... my picture is on the front page!
Post by: santiago79 on March 10, 2003, 10:34:57 AM
Hi everyone,
I emailed Billy about this... but as I haven't gotten a response yet, I'll just say this:

My face is on your front page (with the luigi tattoo), and that picture is copyrighted by me, so it'd be nice to at least have a tiny bit of recognition.


I'm not mad at all.  In fact, I'm sort of pleased that my site has been trafficked enough to have you guys randomly find my picture.  

I think your website rocks, and I read it every day.  Keep up the great work!


And, like all you Big N fans out there, I'm at home anxiously waiting for my US copy of WW to arrive.  Zellldaa.... Zeeeelllllddddaaaa!!!!


Rock on, dudes.

Ryan and I make the those Featured Article Images, depending on who's busy or not.  Ryan made that one, and I don't know where he got the graphic from.  If it is indeed yours, that's very cool!  There really isn't any way for us to give you "credit" for it, and that graphic is likely to get replaced soon anyway.

But hey, if that's yours, it sounds like you ought to enter the contest!!!

It's definitely that same tattoo but I don't think it's you, santiago79.  I say this because if you look at the pictures on your website (which is amusing) and the pic on the front page, the one on the front page is much closer to the lip then the ones on your webpage.  Just my observation.  I could be wrong though, ya never know!

Yep, it's Figure 9- that's the pic. The one on PGC's front page is just cropped over the Luig tattoo with a part of yoru lip and nose. But that IS you on the front page. Good job, man, getting your mug on PGC. Please tell me, though, that that tattoo was temporary- I couldn't imagine living my life with Luigi emblazoned on my cheek.

I agree with mouse_clicker. I examined all of the photos on the page santiago told us to go to, and one of them is a match with the one on PGC's front page. That's cool!

I also agree with PGC. There's really no way to give credit, but the recognition can be recieved here.

Way to go! You are one cool guy with all of those funny pictures. You should definitely enter the contest.

That's not a real tattoo...  I am crazy... but I'm not CRAZY.  I think my girlfriend would leave me if I put on a permanent tattoo of luigi on my face.  )  I mean, she's gonna miss me enough when I get my copy of Wind Waker.  Hehehe...

Oh thank god!!  I was worried there for a minute.  I was just thinking to myself "there is no way someone actually got that done"
Wheew!  I almost had you pinned as the biggest loser on earth.

I suppose my fifteen minutes of fame is over, so this is my last post.  

I am just really really curious though,  where did you PGC guys find my pic?  Did you find it on google somewhere?  Or is it linked off of someone else's website?

Just curious.

Thanks.

If I had a digital camera, I would waste your ass.  As it happens though, I don't.  I might still be able to come up with something to beat you though.    If nothing else, I can describe the extent of my fanboyism to the point that it would make Shigeru Miyamoto shiver.
