    Man it's been a long time, but I think it's the high area of the cheekbone and the hair about in the middle of the part.

    I should have extended my question to the reverse - since the shield is stripped bare anyway, where else should I look for wear on the reverse? Buncha commedians! image

    I guess I should have mentioned the reverse. Heck where is Russ, I had to go look at his icon to remember what they look like. Probably the tail feathers, the head, maybe the wing tips.

    << <i>Heck where is Russ >>



    Russ just finished up restoring his admin system after a catastrophic failure last night. Man, what a friggin' headache.
