My picture rounds were my weakest. If the entire image of each was there it would have been slightly easier.

I'll be honest HM, I stole the Clint Eastwood example...

I would like to think they already know about whatever writing talents I may have seeing as I write all the automatic emails that get sent out and all of the support pages on the site :)

Looking forward to the answers as well, although I wont be able to check the results or answers until Monday when I am next in.
