Last Updated: 8th July 2010 - The gallery has been rearranged by three different sub-groups for each gender; "Modern" (which is then divided by age group), "Historical & Fantasy" and "Sensual" - the last category is not for graphic pictures, it is simply for the more provocative ones or those that show a bit more flesh.
I am currently in the process of trying to add more pictures to the 40+ and teens section for men and women as these are the sections that are particularly lacking right now.
About this site
This archive was created to house any pictures I have found that I think could make a good picture for an RPG character. It was becoming too hard to keep them all bookmarked, so I decided to create an archive which I and others could browse. As the archive grew a mission statement became clear; to archive as many different pictures of celebrities, models, athletes and musicians as possible.
You also won't find many famous actors such as Tom Cruise and Angelia Jolie here, instead the aim of this archive is to showcase as many unknown celebrities as possible. Occasionally I will add well known celebrities if I find particularly interesting pictures, and some of the celebrities listed you may recognise, while other people won't be as familar with them.
All archived pictures are listed by hair colour and skin colour. This is not a means of segregation and is not a comment on race, it is just an easy way of browsing the pictures. Each picture has also been tagged with keywords which you can search here. These keywords include physical attributes and personality characteristics, and in some cases species i.e. pictures I personally would consider using for a vampire are tagged 'vampire'.

Tips for finding a Character Picture
I usually find it's best to start with a character picture before I write the rest of the profile. This way I can tailor the character to the picture, especially any details about his/her physical appearance. The first step is identifying what hair and skin colour the character has. Then I usually look for pictures that fit with his/her personality. Different pictures convey different personalities; quiet, sexy, submissive, defiant, warm, fun loving, handsome, shy etc.
It is important to remember that a character picture doesn't need to match exactly. For example, height; you cannot tell what height a person is by a picture, even if the picture shows a figure standing up. Tatoos, piercings and any other markings do not have to be shown in the picture because they can be hidden under clothing.
