AFTERTONES
Message Board Portrait Gallery

Poor Janis!   All of us know just what she has looked like for the last 50 years (and if you don't believe me, look at the Hunger CD liner!).  But aside from a few lucky Americans who regularly meet her on the road (Stand up Dar. Sit down Dar), until now she had no idea what most of her fans look like. And nor did the rest of us!!

So here is our very own Portrait Gallery.  Participation is completely optional ... and there's no need to give a town, or an e-mail, or a 1-line "profile" from a Janis song, if you don't want to. You can even give a comic portrait instead of a photo: but we'd rather see you for real! 

Janis has given the web site her enthusiastic endorsement:  "As most of you regulars know, I don't normally recommend sites. However, I think this is a GREAT idea for fans and friends!  Please sign up so I can get some idea of what you all look like! ... Janis".

So ... send your "portrait" as an e-mail attachment to Trovador.  I can handle just about any format (but JPEGs are neatest). You can get a photo into computer format either by scanning in a print, or by using a digital camera output.  Ask a nerd for help if you need it.

Janis and I are looking forward to an ever-increasing number of portraits ....
