    Had this picture done by eliana93fer on fiverr.com. It wasn't cheap, but the end result turned into probably the best Christmas present I've ever given to anyone.

    Yeah, I think he makes the picture. Jim, the keyboard player, asked, "Do I always look grumpy? Damn. I need happy pills." But he liked the picture too.

    That's cool. Everyone is drawn into a Family Guy looking character.

    The middle guy is the best.

    How much was it? Not $5?

    Cool image.

    Keyboard player looks to be in pain. I don't mean that as a dig, but maybe he has some mild but chronic pain that he's "gotten used to" but still needs to be dealt with. Just an impression based on that one photo.

    The spacing between the keyboard player and the others accentuates the differences in facial expression as well. Obviously, the artist emphasized this on purpose (had the keyboard player turn away). Makes it more dynamic, in a humorous kind of way.

    tasty - it was almost $200

    intp - He was just looking extra grump in that picture and everyone else huddled but he was kinda stuck where he was because of the keyboard. It turned out funny.

    bigfat - I'll tell him!

    Go Ravens!!

    I did these for my band Los Blancos a while back with a phone app. They are shockingly accurate, lol.
