I was born in 1977, but only saw Star Wars for the first time in um...1986? Can't remember. Lived in an area where cable wasn't available and we didn't have a VCR either, so I only saw it on free TV once in a blue moon. It was a real treat. I always liked Empire best, mostly because of Hoth. Not sure how I first heard of the Star Wars movies. I can only remember one kid at school being obsessed with it, and that was in 1986, so most had moved on, I guess.

At any rate, I started collecting the figures around 1988, I'd guess, which was hard! Those were the "dark ages," after all. I would draw lots of SW-related pictures, I recorded the movies onto cassette tapes when they were on TV (I've probably heard them as much as I've watched them), found SW figures at yard sales (try doing that now!), bought the excellent Timothy Zahn books (he uses the word 'gingerly' too much, though), subscribed to Star Wars Insider, etc... All was well.

1999 killed my love of Star Wars. I was actually kind of embarassed to say I was fan for a while. (I never stopped loving the OT, though) AOTC was ok, but nothing great. ROTS wasn't much better. By that point, I was more interested in character and ship design than anything. Pretty sad. Then, a couple of years ago, I discovered this amazing site and the world of fan editing and my love of Star Wars is as strong as ever. I still don't care about the prequels, though. ;)

As for pictures, the only one I can think of relating to SW I have is one of me when I was around 9 wearing a ROTJ tank top. I'd hurt my shoulder in a bike accident and it was perfect for leaving the shoulder uncovered. Haha.
