You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.


Time for a new addition to the ongoing saga of Browncoat purdyness!
If you're so inclined, post a picture of yourself so we can all see who we talk to here



How to post images here: http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=5&t=29479
(Short version: Image must be hosted somewhere on the internet and all you need is the URL. Photobucket, imageshack, and flickr are your friends. See above-linked thread for further details, or click 'reply with quote' to see how others have done it.)
Also, PLEASE NOTE: the tutorial thread is an excellent resource and we don't want it to get overloaded and weighed down. Please test your image posts in one of the many 'test' threads scattered over the board, particularly out of the way in troll country, or start your own to help keep the tutorial nice and easy to load.



Most recent picture thread: http://www.fireflyfans.net/mthread.asp?b=11&t=29663

Index of all past picture threads and sub-picture threads: http://www.fireflyfans.net/mthread.asp?b=11&t=27728


Here is me:


Now post you!
Or you can, y'know, just talk about other people's too...


(Thanks Steamer!)

Hello Mei Mei - you is the cutest!! Penguin - put that whip down... and as for my Dano... er G23... settle... settle...

Roxy - I just looked through all of my pics and I have nothing that would do justice to the standard you set... you and Emma make me so jealous - I want a corset so badly!! I actually have my eye on one, but it will have to wait til I have done D*C... pity...

I have to admit I skip alot of the drivel on this site and usually go right to any picture page. I think Rose, Roxy, HK, Magda, et al. have everything to do with that. That said, Roxy you have set the bar pretty high this week. Today started out pretty crappy but just go alot better, and not in the dirty leering sense. It is just nice to know that a genuine, pleasant smile can bring me right around. Ladies, I salute you - the epitomes of beauty, grace, and class.

Roxy- yeah most of mine are hook and eye...you really ought to try the lace up as they are ever so much easier to get on...oh and MisterG will likely faint when I show him this thread.

Em- hubba hubba;)

Magda- squeak squeak has a whole new dimension now

Tristan- better question as a theater guy I am assuming you've been called upon to lace more than a few...do you agree lace up is easier than hook and eye?

The one corset I have an eye on is lace up. Now I have a question, is it easy to get on yourself or do you pretty much always need help? The hooks I can do myself, but that just gets irritating and my arms start to ache after a while (*grumble, grumble*stupid tiny hooks*grumble, grumble*).

Emma, life is good, thank you....I need to email you and get caught up....
No events lately, but I am doing uniform pieces for the 76th. That's about it.
As for me being in a corset, yes I have. Not really a secret, either...it's something I am kinda proud of, actually. A production of Love's Labours Lost in college as Dumaine. And no, it was not comfy, but boy did we stand up straight and tall! It's nice to be able to add something to a conversation when a woman says "You have no idea!"...hehe...yes, yes I do!

MSG, lace-up is a LOT easier to deal with than hook and eye. Less pain involved and you can actually get a better fit.
I used to really enjoy lacing up corsets, too....*sigh*

Roxy, if it's a back-lace corset you'll probably always need help, unless you are really flexible.

Now Roxy (and the rest of you lovely ladies) I am sure if you Really needed help some one here would be more than happy to help out with the hooking or lacing.

Well...here's my contribution to the lace-up corset thing...

In typical girl next door fashion:


Heh...it did actually have what I refer to as a brothel back...it laced up. The top that I lobbied for was an actual corset with boning and everything, but the matron of honor nixed it.

Another shot of my wholesomeness:


And this is my favorite hook and eye fastening top. Gotta be careful how you move as those suckers fly open REALLY easily. Ask me how I know.


(That's my grandma with me about three weeks before she died. She had always wanted to ride in my car with the top down. We hoisted her in using the lifter thingy that was used to get her in and out of bed. Never could figure out how to get her in before she got so weak as to need the lift.)
