Welcome neighbour!  I'm sure we'll find things to talk about once the game gets underway. ;)

Anybody have any suggestions for good sources for avatar pictures. The standard forum pictures are somewhat lacking in selection...

I'm a good source of avatar pictures  ;D (write me a mail with some specs and I'll send you a couple of suggestions).

Otherwise I'd say the following:

Thematical search on google pictures (certain descriptors, historical names, physical features etc.)

The British national portrait gallery: http://www.npg.org.uk/live/index.asp

Google "portrait gallery"

Movie pics (IMDB search for any medieval movie and then googlepic the actors)

D&D homepages - both computer games & tabletop rpg (tons of stuff in there) Best site I know:

Well, I've tried looking for old women for br wiki and struggled - lots of women <from warm countries> but very few old women - even searching for nuns gives you lots of young women (and some deeply disturbing images but that's the web for you).

Ok, I've given up on finding a good avatar, and settled on something passable. It covers the bald, grim and grey beard. Please ignore the braided mustache. That's just starting to make it look like me.
