Thanks to Will Glynn, Van Corey, Tim Ake, Stefano Petroni, htfld_n, Greg Frechette, Gavin MacVicar and Christopher Elliott for support the last group. If you don't see your name here is because I have to spend time seeing every profile. It consume a lot of time, so help me, send me your name.

Following the same concept that we had on the last group, I'll be posting some pictures here. If you believe that other picture must be here, just let me know and I'll post it. I am trying to keep it balanced between all members. I was thinking on vote for them but it involve too much administration work. Any idea?
