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.

Gosh, I read through all these message to make sure my questions wasn't asked already...lol OK, here's my question, since I have two agents, Goldfinger and DaRu, can I submit two pictures of me, one for Goldfinger and a different one for DaRu? I just didn't want to use the same picture for both characters. Also, can I send a colored pictured?

Did my photo arrive? I know it is a bit odd, but it was the bestI could do for long hair.

if it's in color it'll still be shown in b and w

Processing submitted pictures is fairly time consuming, so I usually do a bunch at once. Consequently, it can take up to two weeks after sending one in before you finally see it posted. Sorry about that.

I take it that it's OK to send in two different poses of myself, for each character, plus we won't get them back right?

Just to verify I've sent you a pik.
Thankyou!

And a hello to everyone. :)

I have sent in pic and love the ability to look like who I want and I don't think you can send in the same photo for diff det. don't remember where but it states that your photo can only be used by you as Det. but will also be used for suspect in future cases.
P.S.-Don't send in minors photos for a few good reasons they are not accepted. Thanks for the photos Ben!!
