I have some, but all in paper-form (of course, when child, there wasn't digital cameras... or personal computers  :ph34r: ).

And no, I won't scann any picture by now  :evil:

Edit: this isn't Therion related dd (although it's good to open any kind of topics, of course!)  :nanana:

Hi there,

my child photo's are in my parent's apartment, but that's only five minutes away. But they're on paper as well, and I can't scan them now.

Eve does have very cool child and youth pics of herself, but she still hasn't joined us. :bawling:

Cheers!

Markus

Bah! that's an easy one. Just take her cat away and you will see how she gets. Now picture the same situation with a younger Luthien (... :unsure: is that actaully possible?) and with cookies instead of her cat.

Nice pics, Eve! I've got few baby pics myself, but in the moving-up-from-one-continent-to-another craziness, they got lost or something, 'cause I cannot find them.

Anyway, Viru, I've got the just the e-pic...the paper one is still in your posess :evil:

Lovely Pics Eve! The one with the umbrella is wonderfull.
Now that I have read the whole thread I've realized that my mom is just a little bit older than you (she was born in the lates 40's). And given that you are into Therion and she is not, I must conclude that there is still hope to bring my old lady into the "dark side" of the music :evil:
She does tollerates Therion and recognizes its quallity, but I don't think she would ever buy some of their CD's on her own.
Title: child photos of yourself
Post by: Diane on May 27, 2006, 05:05:35 pm
Haha Aluqak.  Maybe your mom doesn't realize that there are several metal bands that play operatic/symphonic/orchestral type metal.  These are the genres of metal I lean towards.  Therion in the lead, of course.  And I never heard of Therion until I was 51...  I was in a pub in Holland and a Therion song came on and I inquired about it.  It was Enter Vril-ya.  That song got me hooked.  I don't really care for death metal (the growly stuff), but I love the music in bands like Tristania, Sirenia, Haggard, etc.   I may get funny looks when I'm wearing my metal shirts, but I say:  RAR!!!   haha

Wish my parents were like you, Eve  :evil: ... my dad's born in 1950 and my mum in 1952, so they're your generation, but they're faaar from liking anything like Therion. And even if they did like the music.... wouldn't admit it for anything in the world! :lol:

Thanks Eresh.  And I sure do miss her.  But enough of sad stuff.  Although she is in my past, her memory is with me every day in my head and in so many pictures that I have...  and (don't be shocked anyone) I even have some of her ashes in a pretty little bottle (that she even chose)!


I'm having fun showing my old pictures.  The youngsters here must be getting a kick out of the old black and white ones.  haha   My dad used to take many pictures, but so many of them are on slides.  I'm only scanning the actual photos that I have.

Haha.   Well, I suppose I'll have to if you two are a package deal.  My son is 34.  I'll see how he feels about 2 new siblings...  haha    And thank you, ViruS, for your kind words.  I also appreciate all of you guys respect and acceptance of me, even though I have one foot in the grave.  haha   j/k    I may have many years on you people, but I still enjoy having fun.  It's just my playful side shining through.  Maybe I'm related to Peter Pan...   you know, the kid who never grew up!   haha

Nice pics Eve, and I'm sorry for my comments at the beggining of the topic about the age of the pics, I didn't mean to be rude.
Your sister died in 2001... Jeez... I'm sad to hear that, if she would still be alive it would be interesting to see her reaction at you, a metalhead at your age. Is that pic with her from the 80's? She was hot back then :evil:
Ok.. Everyone has convinced me, I'll post a child pic of me.

Don't worry, The One...  no offense taken at all.  I realize these pictures are old, so to you kids, they must look like relics or antiques even!  Actually, things are considered to be an antique if it's over 50 years old...  haha    I wonder if that refers to people as well?!   Actually, my sister knew that I liked some metal bands before she passed away (she was 44 at the time). Her style was more the mainstream type rock.  She never made negative comments about what I liked to listen to...  just accepted it.  My son thinks I'm a little off my rocker, though...  haha  Yes, that pic is from 1980 or 1981.  haha...   She would get a kick out of you calling her hot!

Come on you people...   pictures please!   Or I'll threaten you with more old stuff!   hehe

Thanks Elizabeth.  Considering I've had it 5 1/2 years, it looks pretty darn good. I'm a clean fanatic, so I'm always cleaning it...  inside and out!

Nice car the one of the 50's. I wonder where is it now? :D
And the one you got there is in really good conditions. But I've seen older stuff here in this city. You can see stuff from the 60's+ on the street. (Some look like there were too many trees on their way and hadn't been fixed in these long years) and some don't even have air conditioning, here in the coast of Venezuela it's dam'n hot, and you practically see no one on the street. (Also by the fact that this city has a high criminal rate  :afraid1: ) but waht the hell, I haven't been living here for even a year, so I guess I'll get used to it.
