There are two common requests that we can tackle simultaneously. The first is that people want to submit their own picture to use as their detective's avatar. The second is that there are not enough different suspect pictures.

So, if you would like to submit your own picture, I can set that as your avatar. In exchange, I would like to add those pictures to the pool of possible suspect pics. I'll set it up so that nobody else will be able to use your picture for their detective, but your face will make appearances in the various cases in the game.

I don't want to automate the process because then people will upload all kinds of junk that would detract from the game.

So, if you are interested, send in a photo of yourself to
ben@hypotheticalsoftware.com
I'll take care of the cropping, resizing and desaturating. By sending in photos, you are granting permission for use in this game.

Oh boy - Thanks, James Lee - I'll have to tell my wife that someone thinks I look like Giles....

Would this be a bad time to mention that I am, in fact, a librarian?

And its nice to see a whole new batch of photos in the game, over the last day or two - thanks to everyone who's sending them, and thanks to Ben for adding them!
