Ok, the original poster seemed to generally be referring to our male members...
but i'll respond anyways.
i do it basically for the reason several have mentioned - it's more personal.
and, i think it looks cool. granted it's just my eyes, and i don't know how many people even kno they really *are* mine, but, it's me.
[edit]and i appreciate it when others use their own pics too. makes things more intimate, personal.[/edit]
