I'm 20, and I've been hanging around WC since 16ish...I've interned at Stardock too You're not alone, don't worry.

39 and a has-been skinner
Retired some 2 years ago.

I'm only 17













Times 2!

37 here. it's not my age that bugs me, it's the grey hair i have inherited from my dad.

At least you have hair to turn gray

55 in a few days and still relatively 'grey hair free'...NOT DYED, either.

My sister, on the other hand, is 3 years younger than I and is totally grey without her 'brunette from a bottle' fix once a month... hehe.



Don't have that problem, either..hehe!! Up until about 5 years ago, my (not grey) hair was 3 parts the way down my back, and (when not combed/brushed back) my fringe came down past my (dare I say it) nipples. Didn't shave much, either, so I was frequently referred to as the 'Wild Man of Borneo'

It'd still grow that long if I were to allow it... but I tired of the 'Captain Caveman... er, Yeti' look, and now favor the more conservative clean shaven look... tho I still have the natural resources/hair to go all heathen/piratey if I want to.

*** In Oz this is called skiting...hehe ***

Wow cool! I am glad to know that there is such a range of ages? Couldnt figure out how to word that! LOL really cool thanks guys. And philly. I do I know and I am! LOL I am just takeing others into consideration while i skin...... Give me a break I am new. I want to make an immpression. I dont know why I am skinning yet. All I know is it is fun and I like it. LOL Thanks peeps

And really...thats pretty much all you need to know! Find something you like to skin and have at it. I started doing the docks because I saw the library was seriously lacking in matching skins...didn't know anything about graphics or any of that stuff...just dove in and started doing it.

Oh...and 54!

Well, I am 62..fixin to turn 63 in a few months. Started skinning at the young age of 59   

I feel much better now thanks to WOM, CountryYokel and starkers, I'm 53 and I do some skinning. Got the mind of a teen and the body of an old man (feeling)   

Teen rang....he wants it back....;)

I know I will never grow up mentaly. But i will have to act like it! LOL And i will obviously age on the outside. I really am shocked that I am turning 21. That is the age i can legally drink and I am not even excited. I am upset. I am not going to the bar for shure like everyone else on there 21st? I dont know. I just aint to enthused about being 21! That to me is for shure the age where i am absolutely, possotively, an adult. No more excuses, No more teen for an excuse! LOL It is sucky to me.

Growing up can be a bitch....

Responsibilities and all that crap....;)

"16 tons, and what do you get?

Another day older and deeper in debt...."

It ain't all bad, really....;)

 

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over,
Thought I'd something more to say.

Floyd.....[Time]

Uh oh, you know things are getting bad when he starts quoting Dark Side of the Moon...

Haven't heard that in years.

"Breath deep the gathering gloom. Watch light fade from every room" The Moody Blues. Way too long to quote,but good.
