He reeeally stretches out, that's nothing! He has a really freaky long abdomen, but I think that's a viola thing :P
I don't know if this is a chatty thread :oops: but thank you anyways :P

My personal photo, but this is copied from Flickr since my computer is dumb and won't post pictures straight to a post, so I need to BBcode them to here. :oops:

I admit it. :oops: I got severely behind on this and haven't contacted anyone in a long time.

I am so sorry!

This next week I will work on figuring out who I already have photos from and go from there. I think the PPs are covered but I'm sure we'll need more photos of the exotics.

Thank you so much to everyone who is posting pictures, and please don't stop. :)

If you still need photos, feel free to use some of mine. I only have really good ones of my PP George. The others aren't as people friendly yet and the E's are just too busy lol.

My photobucket link is in my signature.

Once you've figured out what you still need, I'd be glad to submit some pictures. :D I've had many species over the past few years and I have pretty good close-up shots. :)
