Well after seeing a good number of Photos of members in the 'latest purchase thread" and being giving the title of PW"s ( Posing Wankers ) I thought it may be time to have an Official POSING WANKERS CLUB Thread!
But i think it shouldn't be just the average snapshot, lets make them a little more creative if we can.
So pull out the digital camera and start snaping away.
PS : one thing we should do is keep the file size small as well. helps Dann out with bandwith!

Ok here's my first one - Monster Dogs at Night!

Very cool, how about 1 picture per person max, so make it count (yeah to help me with my bandwidth, we're up to 400M/day now, ouch)

This is older than dirt, but I'll find/make a better one when I get home.

Bong, i swear youve had more hairstyles than i have oakleys, lol

LOL... that's what my friends tell me. i've been told i tend to alternate between hairstyles every half a year, and ranging from conservative to the messy/unkempt look.

oops... i missed the part about one photo per person... sorry. i'll delete it if need be.

I've got a very creative (in my opinion anyway) photo that's super Oakley oriented of me at the drag races here in Vegas.

I'm just havin a hard time getting it to attach. Anyone wanna post it for me? I think it'll be the first time my face has graced this site if so...

Needs to be a .jpg or .gif, and under 500K. If you can't get it to work, e-mail it to me.

Here's LetsgoO or Mad Science. aka FP's vegas Bud

He asked me to post the image.

Thanks Mike. I gotta re-install my picture editing software, I was having some sizing issues.

And that picture was last October at Vegas, my friend perfectly timed the photo for those who didn't miss the background. Good times.

Thought I'd be a PW in some of my new purchases (already posted 'em in the new purch. thread, so I didn't want to clog it up with a reeepost)
Here we go...

aarrgh! retro zeros are so cool! i gotta get me one of those, who cares if they don't fit me... really nice Adam. i also love the retro E-Wire.

ok, here's my latest photo... +Red Wiretaps in front of Bowery Ballroom:

Nice one Bong, that + Red lens tint looks great! The wires above are my super bargain £18 T wires

wow, £18 is a super bargain, congrats Adam. the +Red Iridium lenses was the reason why i picked up the Wiretap, i think it might've been an impulse purchase at the time. anyway, the +Red looks great but is a b*tch to clean... smudge marks everywhere no matter how much you wipe them.

aight this is going to sound really stupid, but what's a "posing wanker" ? Guess that's the french in me doing its work...and also, how come I can't see any of the pictures except for adam's and ford ? is it just me ?

Cause they cut and pasted from older threads and those images haven't been moved over yet. (pre-site move)

A P.W. is when we put our mugs up for all to see while wearing Oakley's.

You can see my pic because I uploaded it onto my own server on the old site, so with the switch it still loads from my server.


And in real world terms a 'posing wanker' is someone who is a poser ('look at me!' 'look at me!') and is a wanker (smug, conceited, dickhead). Literally, a wanker is...errmm...someone care to say? Its more of a pommy,aussie word anyway.

someone who partakes in self gratification... that would be the literal meaning but as ford said it's more generally used for someone who's being a bit of dick.
