#100-- your web page is a myspace account
#99--- you type u, instead of u
#98--- you imbed 2.8 megapixel files into a mail document and than wonder why no one responds to your messages
#97--- you have a manager/boyfriend/photographer/ride but no headshots
#96--- you are stocked that your new cameraphone has a flash, now your shots will really POP

#83 - you really want to do acting but see modeling as a way in
#82 - you think "America's Top Model" is a real world example of the everyday model.
#81 - you want the photographer to pay but have no idea how to pose
#80 - you have the same face in every picture
#79 - you think you derserve a whole lot and don't even have a portfolio
#78 - similarly, you want the photographer to have the latest and best equipment and don't even have a portfolio

Haha so true!

#83 You look like Serena Williams (aka youre a man) and you post endless threads about how the fashion world is biased and you, with your masculine build will one day be stomping it down the runways for Gucci/Prada/Balenciaga.
