 Here is our tree, complete with my entire collection of Star Wars ornaments.  My wife is a saint...

 nice deco on the house... quite the image of suburban bliss, white picket fence and all.
 
 i think i see an R2 on the tree, but no other star wards geekery.  love the fact that you left a catalogue open on the women's underwear page on the coffee table   :eek:  i also like your tree-holder thingy, looks like the tree's spider-like legs are about to pop to life and carry the whole thing away.

Wow, you must have good eyesight or some CSI-level repixelating software.  The only thing I can make out is an Eggs disc on the coffee table.
 
 Wonder why the images didn't work; they were fine for me on the preview version.  At any rate...

weird - when i go to the links i posted above (message #3 in this thread), i get huge high-res version of the pix.  that's how i can see those details.  hummm, something weird going on with my connections to teh intrewebs...
 
 i'll see if i can't post a few images of our domestic deco... the holidays are fun.  i'm really getting into them this year.

You're right.  If you view the original images, then remove the max size listed at the end of the JPEG, you do get a huge version.  
 
 Why, I can almost make out the print next to those ultra-support granny bras in the catalog!

A photo of what?  We don't decorate our yard/house...too much work.  And we don't get the tree until about the 20th, and by the 27th it's in the dumpster.
 
 But the above photos were good.

Since when did something like that stop you?
 
 Dupek, you're turning into Rhett with your obstinance!
 
 I would at least expect to see a pic of your dog pissing up against some bush.

I know who it is....but I don't want to ruin the game.
 
 
 I think these things are pretty cool.
 
 Here's one I made for a family member (http://www.elfyourself.com/?userid=461d104f814b496ec24aa37G06121512).
