This has been on my mind ever since I got a membership on these forums and its been buzzing around my head all these years and I can't take it anymore! Why is it that the 90% of the members in these forums don't show their personal photo on the Profiles?!

That's debatable. You don't want to see what half the ppl here look like.

J/K Nah, they're just shy (like me)

maybe cuz 90 percentt of members don't ever say anything
 
Hear hear...
PFT should have a 30 day identity expiration policy, so that when ppl see the 'no over 2000' or so members then they don't get falsely impressed by the number of cpers out there. Better for them to know the truth. Also becuz it must be cheaper to keep the forum running this way. Also it would be easier to snap up member only deals which I always miss out on.

Well, the "truth" is that members come and go and return and often go again.  For many, this is a passing interest.  To some, it is home sweet home.  It is the same on all the other forums and listserves.  If you are a reg, you get the feel of who is actually posting.  It is always changing,  the Admin, Mods, and Regs make up the forums, and not even Admin. is immutable.  We all come and go as our interest and schedules allow. As the years move on, the regs draw tighter together, and those with less interest fade away.

Here, we really have no faces. Our words are what count, and our actions.
 
And there is a thread on which you may post your pic, too.  It a very long one, several have their pic (or some other vid representation) of themselves there.  No one has posted anything for a while there so it has dropped down the list.  It starts out something like "it's that time of year again...'  or something like that.

As for me -- I just plain don't know how to post pictures.

I would post a personal picture, but my scanner broke down. Once it is back up though, I will most likely add one.

Yes there is a photo thread floating around. Has a lot of member photos although some may have disappeared. Dredge it up and have a look and post your photo. Its not toooo far back as a few new members have posted.
