You should go with whatever makes you feel comfortable kittens.
After all, this is a site based on your personal qualifications.
Perhaps you might want to go with more of a standard headshot on the front page. That way we can see your eyes better rather than having them shaded by your hat's rim. You could then have a link to a pics page that shows you (and whomever) in a more casual light.
Either way, congrats on your new page and once again on your new job.

Well... I was thinking about it But yeah I do not want to scare studentsBaakay wrote:
The only thing that would possibly be better would be one of those shots of you slicing and dicing with your sword... but that might be a little intimidating to prospective students!
Heeheehee Lynxa, you are not only one My hubby is tired of hearing from meI couldn't look at it for too long though, I started to read the names of your papers and they made me dizzy
Thanks! hobbywhelmed My hubby will be out of job for a while so this is the first assignmentVery nice! I agree with everyone else. It's a Real Person's site, not some full-face-frontal corporate-uniform-wearing academic clone's site. Your hubby done good!
monkeyboy, Thanks Vapalla told me the same thing! LOLThat is the only issue I had with the photo. Other than that, keep it on!
Awwwwwwwwww.... shellie ThanksYes, there is a shadow across your face, but it doesn't hide your pretty eyes. I think it looks fine. And on a teeny tiny proof-reading note, I think in the very first sentence you mean "Ruriko IS an assistant prof"... just need one little "is" instead of "ia". You're on your own for all the math gibberish that follows! I stop proofing at "is"!
I took this picture in Yosemite, CAI think the picture looks great too. Where were you when it was taken? It kind of looks like you were enjoying the park or camping. It must be the rocks in the background. The photograph has a very playful feel to it.
LOL I told my hubby and he said he is still happy about the siteBut ... Ruriko Yoshida ia ...? Watch those pesky typos.
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww.... you are such a sweetie, wELCOME cONSUMER Thank you!!!Like everyone else has said, you look adorable!
You look very cute and fun. Nice smile too. If I didn't already know you from Beta,
I'd guess that you had a very lively personality based on this picture.
transmet, I tried to convince my hubby for cats' picture and I got deniedYou should go with whatever makes you feel comfortable kittens.

Thank you for nice words everyone

21-3 at this point... I'd say I'm winning. I don't mind replacing the picture, but so far kittens has only suggested pictures of the cats there instead.
For the typos and general brokenness of the site: this was something I threw together in about an hour yesterday. I didn't realize she was going to post it here--as a poll, no less.

Aww, you look great! Very nice picture. I read "Saturation points on faces of a rational polyhedral cone," and I must say it is a great read. I got half way before I realized that I know nothing about this stuff and my brains began to leak out of my nose.
Time is but an illusion. Lunch time...doubly so.
