On Sunday, I had the unique opportunity and pleasure to do a beards.org photo shoot with Mike, his lovely wife, and their sweet little puppy. Mike has been a long-time friend of and cheer leader for beards.org. It was great to finally meet him. Here are some preview photos from his photo shoot yesterday. Watch for Mike’s upcoming beard feature right here on beards.org.
We don’t want to give the impression that Jason’s nothing more than a rough and tough guy who would rather punch you out than look at you. The photo above shows that he can smile and that he is really a nice guy. It’s true! He really is a nice guy!
Jason was kind enough to do a beards.org photo shoot today. Here are some preview shots.
Say hello to Jared. He’s the second Jared to do a beards.org photo shoot this week! Check out some preview shots from today’s photo shoot below.
Here are some samples from today’s amazing beards.org photo shoot with Jared. He has an incredibly fierce power-beard that has to be seen to be believed!
Stay tuned for much more!
Christopher’s back! Here are some preview shots from his second official beards.org photo shoot earlier today! Stay tuned for more…
Brian’s back with a new look for his second official beards.org photo shoot! Here are some preview images from his photo shoot that took place today, October 15, 2010. Watch for an update to Brian’s beard feature soon!
Hey! Once more, we’ve got another million views on the gallery counter! I wasn’t at the computer at the time to witness the turnover to 14,000,000 views, so I don’t know which image was the fourteen millionth. So to illustrate this post, I’ve included another shot of Brian that appeared in his latest album update.
Thanks again to all of the friends and visitors to beards.org for your interest in the bearded cause. Keep growing!
We’ve done it again! We’ve got another million views on the gallery counter! The thirteen-million milestone was reached sometime on the morning of July 4th, 2010.
We hit our previous milestone of twelve million gallery views back on March 31st, 2010. Remember, however, that the gallery counter started at zero on January 26, 2006. So we have had thirteen million views of photos in the gallery since January 26, 2006.
The number is a fun milestone to track, although the actual number of views is even larger. Sadly, when some images leave the gallery, their view counts get subtracted. That can whack off thousands from the counter at a time. Also, when Salvatore’s beard videos were hosted in the main gallery, the overall view count was boosted substantially. When I pulled the videos from the gallery (because they were using up all of the site’s monthly data transfer allowance), the overall count shrank some more, as well. If all of the subtractions were added back, the true number would be quite a bit higher.
Regardless, each additional million makes for a good occasion to stop and reflect for a moment and express thanks to all of beards.org’s loyal fans, friends, and visitors. It’s also a great time to thank and salute each and every bearded man who has joined the gallery.
I wasn’t at the computer when the counter hit thirteen million. So this post is illustrated with a previously-unpublished photo of Christopher.
Happy Birthday, USA! And best wishes to all friends of beards.org around the world!
The number of views of photos in the beard gallery hit twelve million sometime just before noon Pacific Daylight Time on March 31st, 2010! We hit eleven million views less than three months earlier on January 6, 2010. The counter started at zero on January 26, 2006. So the twelve million number represents only the number of views since January 26, 2006. Thanks to all of our loyal fans, friends, and visitors, the site continues to grow. We are experiencing some growing pains, but they are welcome. They are a sign of great things yet to come.
I wasn’t at the computer when the counter rolled over to twelve million. So this post is illustrated with a previously-unpublished photo of Tomas.
