I need a picture for my new leader!

Google Image Search is being iffy for me, as it seems it'd rather deliver porn than decent pictures. At any rate, I need a picture for my leader, and here's the good part - it can be anything you want it to be.

His name is Johnathan Tetragammaton, and he's the CEO of the Resi Corporation two generations after our last roleplayed CEO (Jai Resi) passed on. I haven't done much character development for him yet, so basic things such as his age and background are still ambiguous. A couple things are certain, and those are that he is unmarried, with no children. That's about it.

Anyway, if I like your picture I'll add it to my profile and give you props next to it, with a link to your nation's page or a specific thread if you want. You can also do a little background for him if you want, which I may or may not use.

And yes, this is me just being incredibly lazy. :p

I have a few suggestions.

Hope they help.

Here's one....

Then there's this guy....

Perhaps him?

Aha! The solution! (A serious suggestion here)

Ack! Darn j00 all with your senses of humor! I'm looking for a real picture here! Help a lazy brother out. :D

And no, I'm not using Pratchett for my leader, funny as that'd be. :p

Hee! I hadn't realized that that's who Arxland posted an image of!

Hmm, these two have watermarks on them...

Meh. Those were rather good IMO, but the watermarking probably ruins any desire to use them.

That one could be interesting, but I don't think that's the look you're going for.

Could that be him, possibly?

How 'bout that?

http://www.nwscape.com/studio1/images/young_man-l.jpg
That could work if the picture were downsized, but the smile is too annoying IMO.

Propaganda picture :D

But personally.. My favorite in this mish mash of findings is the next picture. Mayby you should re-consider and mayby choose a woman instead as the head of state.. This picture says it all, strong, determination, swift, scheming, plotting, the eyes has it all!! But of course, the end choosing is yours totally.

Hmm, those two are pretty good. Of course, I'm not Resi, so it's not like my opinion actually matters, but they're still good pictures.

Actually, if you go back up to my original link and click that, it'll work. Don't know why it's not working for your link. :confused:

And I'm quite honored *bow* that you have chosen one that I have offered. Gotta love the suit ads on the internet. ;)

I'll take the cookies, but you can keep your gmail invite. (I already got one, but thanks. :))
