Just a couple of pictures we took for fun. I am really enjoying the Filco Linear R with new Cherry double shots. The Poker has had a stem replacement surgery, so it is now ergo clear instead of brown.

I like the Michael Bay filter.



Still trying to convince my wife to pose with my keyboard collection.

beautiful!

Does she read what we're saying?

He once said that his wife reads GH sometimes, before he posted pics of her. So I guess she reads DT too . Expecially now that there are pics of her on it.

Must pose with keyboard in a way it fits into the header background.

That'd be cool actually. Ask your missus if she wants to become DTGirl
She's definitely easy on the eyes

And it's a challenge to fit into those dimensions.

Wonderful pictures.

Quite funny to see your wife holding your keyboards like that, can't imagine the moment you asked for it

Wheres the keyboards?

Nice pics Glissant!

...this gives me a good idea for my blog...

She does read Deskthority, that's the only reason she wanted to be a part of it. Ripster almost ruined it with his attitude though.
I just asked her, and she wouldn't mind making a banner image if you guys want that, but she wants one thing; she wants to be treated with respect. No stupid comments etc .
If you guys have any suggestions as to what kind of picture we should take, please don't hesitate to tell us.
Keep in mind that we only have three mechanical keyboards here at the moment. A Choc mini black with reds, a Filco linear R and a Poker X with ergo clears. We have some key caps, but not many different full sets. Most of my collection is still in Norway.

She also thanks everyone for their kind words. She tells me she appreciates it when people act like human beings .

Let us know!

Something with chopsticks. Like maybe she is pretending to eat keycaps. I also imagine Zooey Deschanel doing something similar.

She thought that was a great idea. We have enough spare key caps to do something like that.
More ideas, please!

Needs cleavage.

"Keyboard on head" always makes me think of ripster who has found the most pictures of keyboard on head in the world...

Don't even start, Ed.

I can dream can't I? It was a compliment. I didn't ask for nudity... If she thinks it was rude I'll remove it. I'm just a guy... I think cleavage and keyboards would go nicely together. But I don't know how they would fit in a banner... It may not work just because of that.

Nice biceps

Great pictures! Your girlfriend looks and sounds awesome!

This is awesome! You found a great gal! (Tries to get wife to pose with keyboard on head...)

P.S. My wife loves my geekiness, she just wants to passively support it

They do go nice together :

agree'd. getting the 980x190 size doesn't seem possible to fit a full keyboard+more unless there is lots of horizontal background in the picture like the mock up above

Or not at all! Broken link. I wanna see boobies!

Hashbaz, that's a good concept. She wants to take some new pictures. Maybe if I ever get my CCnG I can make the poker look a bit cleaner for another "photo shoot". Or maybe I'll get my hands on some blanks soon. We shall see.

The pictures we took were just random poses that my wife wanted to do. I never asked her anything, and I never asked her to do something as silly as put the keyboard on her head. She is holding it above her head . The /b/rotherhood has been slain by the cancer.

We will look into some different concepts for the banner, and maybe grab some new pictures soon. She just did something very girly to her Choc Mini, so she has to model that one soon.

Did she paint the space bar with a lip stick?

Glissant, I decided my picture wasn't appropriate for your thread and didn't want to send it further off topic.
So I deleted it right away and it is just a broken link instead above.

Cool, inlikeflynn =). I'll get some pictures up when/if she feels like doing them =). Maybe we even will be able to make a nice banner or two for Deskthority. I really don't want my ugly random key cap Poker to be in the banner, so I am hoping my CCnG set will get here before long. Poor tsangan is being hassled by PayPal =/, so who knows how long that might take.
