i figured this would be a cool thread to start.

we always see member names and posts but have a hard time matching the face with the name. if you have a favorite picture of yourself in your uniform or during training post it here so we can all see what everyone looks like.

below is a pic of me after i made black belt in 2001.

LOL Me being the modest person I am (NOT) my site has quite a few pictures of myself. And unlike Gou, I don't hide mine. :D Though the pictures are outdated by about 2 years.

(oh and if you notice that some of the pic's aren't displaying, I know about it and I'll be fixing it in a little while. ;) )

Cool pics but what's with the expression on your man's face? It looks like he was caught with his hand in the cookie jar, no offence meant:) BTW, great looking kick and you have a cool looking dog. Is it part akita?

karatekid1975
01-14-2003, 12:12 PM
LOL I tell him that all the time! I try to take his pic, and I tell him not to look "dorky." LOL Now I know I'm not the only one who thinks that way :D

I know my dog is mixed breed. Sheppard, definitely. But I've been trying to figure out what else he is mixed with. He has that "curly" tail. He's a big dog (tall), and slender. He has "webbed feet." If anyone can help, lemme know :D

Thanks by the way :)

I hope I'm not that scary looking that you would deem me inappropriate.:D Actually at the time I put my picture on here the setting was 60x60 and was hard for me to get my computer to get the right dimensions and such. It's nice to know I can make it bigger if I want to I guess.

I changed mine a little bit ago. Your system actually took it which I was amazed. My program currently on a custom design will only let me change it to 85 pixel's high. Now it looks like I'm a little more stretched out. Oh well, there's actually more things important in life to worry about than that little picture.

Thanks. I don't really do anything traditional on it (at least very well). I don't even know the whole Mook form. That pics about 5 years old, and I'm pretty sure I'm doing that strike wrong! My right arm should be on the outside of my "opponent's" arm.

You'll need to get someone to shrink the picture to 85 x 85 pixel or in your case since it's thin and long, make sure it's 85 pixels tall it will be less than 85 pixels wide to fit the whole picture. Then it should work.

Matt Stone
04-01-2003, 12:47 AM
Actually, I was meditating... Yeah, that's it... Meditating...

MY BUTT!!!

I was in pain after dealing with Pavel for 6 *&#@*$& HOURS!!!

Wormtail hadn't attended the seminar, so he was still in awe of the potential for pain that a kettlebell could have.

You should have seen the hit he took later that night! Chufeng sent him from where his arm is (that blue shirted arm is Chufeng's) to someplace about 6 - 8 feet past me to the right of where Wormtail is standing... Cool stuff.

Hahaha, yup. Nice extension by the way.

Recently I walked into the dojo and saw my training partner Todd, and partners in crime Carlos and Marcel doing full side splits trying to see who could do the best one. (All three have full flexiblity, it turns out). I thought it was a pretty strange sight.
Then they wanted to judge who won :erg:

Whatever, I just think it is flat out awesome that a) women aren't afraid of stepping into a dojo somewhere, b) that they excel at what they do, c) that they still look good doing it!

And just an FYI kind of thing... real men don't mind minor flaws in real women.

Oh You're tellin me. I once got over 500 hits on my site in one month because someone posted my site on a "Fighting Femes" forum. I also get private messages on Yahoo messenger from guys that ask me ...... "If you and I were in a fight who would win?" and "could you beat me up?" LOL I have fun with them take them seriously and don't put anything sexual into it. Eventually they get board and disapear.

If you want to see how shallow some people are...(this applies both ways folks)...ask someone out and make sure you sit close to a mirror...if the person you asked out spends more time looking at themselves than you...if they avoid eye-contact...if you have to "get there attention" frequently...

....Forgetaboudit!!!!



Anyone who takes an more than an hour to get ready isn't worth waiting for...what's under all that glitz???


...and the final test is to ask about them and see how long they talk...and then if they reciprocate...then look at the amount of time they spend taking to you about them and how much time they listen to you about you...

Generally, it's OK for a woman to talk about herself 2/3 more...

Now, I have been married to the same woman for 26 years...have no interest in shopping around...but the "shallow test" works when evaluating prospective business partners or employees, as well.

Yes it was Edmund who did the portrait for me ... or actually for my family, who surprised me with it. It is on my website along with one I manipulated with photoshop. All credit goes to Edmund Parker Jr who is outstanding in his chosen field ..... no KenpoGirl, not out standing in a field. He is awesome and a great artist. There are photos on my webpage also, and anyone can see I am not nearly as purdy as he portrayed me.

However, of note is the fact that my very ill mother cried when she gave it to me. She thought he "captured" my spirit and that meant so much to her. I will always be in his debt for giving my mom that present. Edmund has known me for about 15 years and this may have helped the rendition.

Seriously though. I agree 100% in regards to the talents of Ed Parker Jr. I don't think I've seen one portrait that didn't take my breath away. I would love to commission him to do MY portrait one day, when I get my black belt, because he can make anyone look good. Have you seen Dennis' portrait? There's your proof. :EG: heh heh heh

Believe it or not, he did every portrait in "The Journey", by Joe Hyams. I highly recommend it. He has done numerous pictures of his dad, Ed Parker, Sr., and other Seniors in the Art and New Seniors.

He has also designed patches for most of the Kenpo Associations that started post 1990. He has a large portfolio of other work he has done. He has helped other artists in their work. The one that I liked was that he has illustrated children's books. If you know him, it fits his personality. He is such a "dad" - and I mean that in a very good way.

He has lots of other "irons in the fire". Everything from IKKA work, to video production, new books, and DVD's. He is a computer whiz and I would not be surprised if he has something interactive out there some day.

Oss Edmund,

When I saw Mr. Parker, Jr. in 2000 he had some samples including some "Lineage Portraits" of people and their teachers.

He said he will do anyone's portrait and could make them a lineage portrait of them and their teacher(s).

I said something like "I might like one when I get my black belt" and he said that rank had nothing to do with it. It was not a rank thing. He was insistent about that. I finally told him that I didn't want one until I made black whether or not he was ready to do one for me right then.

So if you want one, contact him. Mr. C. can put you in touch with him I bet. Mr. Parker, Jr. was on a tear at the time and didn't want any emails even though his full contact info used to be on his website.

The point is that he is very good and he will do your portrait regardless of rank. The picture of Mr. Parker in the Journey is also available as a print and it looked like a photograph to me when I first saw it.

Amazing. Mr. Duffy got one in the frame with a piece of Mr. Parker's belt. I don't know if those are still available.

Good luck.

Yes, I thought we agreed.

BTW almost every Kenpo Studio has a picture of Mr. Parker in it that Mr. Parker, Jr. did when he was about 19 I think.

It is on the bottom listed as "51261 Poster-Ed Parker Portrait." I'll try to attach it:
http://www.superiormartialarts.com/catalog/uniform/kenpobooks.html

And Mr. Parker Jr also did some updated ones. I'm confused, someone straighten me out. Here is the one I thought was a photo when I saw it and which Mr. Duffy has with a piece of Mr. Parker's belt. Scroll down to the "Limited Edition portrait with
belt section":
http://www.lwkarate.com/on_line_store.htm

And this one is featured in the Journey. I thought they were the same until I went fishing around the web for it. It is this one on the right of this website credited to Mr. Parker, Jr.

Email your pic to Bob and he'll post it for you if you can not.

It works on my 98 machine at work, but not on my Mac at home.
I have not checked my XP machine here at work but I bet it may be broken there as well.

I'll try and post a picture of myself later. I may be in one of the ones of the Mr. Conatser seminar if there are some there. That would be about the most recent one I have until I get one from the Mr. Sepulveda seminar from this past weekend.

I'll post that when I get it. It was taken with a digital camera.

It was about 3hrs long.
:rofl:

No, seriously I am getting notes together to post on another thread. It may take until Monday, but I'll probably put something up.

We worked extensions, flowing motion and the interrelatedness of the system and how it is put together.

That is the short answer. It was great. If you can go to a Mr. Sepulveda seminar, do it. He is very good.

No, probably not. These seminars aren't usually public broadcast. Although I've taken a heck of a lot of notes on about 70 or more of our kenpo techniques.
