First 100 MSP Members Collage

Last night, I was laying in bed. I was thinking about the site. How can I make it more interesting...What's the first impression that people have when they hit my home page?
Is there a way to show people in something other than words what's beneath the surface of the MSP community without logging in?

I decided to make a collage using pictures that members uploaded for their profile picture.
The reason.. Well, I guess it's because there is nothing more unique than a picture. A profile pic is especially interesting because it a small glimpse into a personality a lot of the time. When I was finished, I was amazed. I can't believe the diverse group that has joined MySiteProfile.com. It's beautiful. I was inspired to show all willing to look, and encourage anyone willing to partake as the community grows. This is the collage. I will continue to add to it as time goes. I'm hoping to run out of monitor space ;-)

101 MSPmations

I hit member 101 today, its crazy, my site has done so well in under 30 days. I am very grateful to all my new members. Some very cool people have signed up in the last 18 days. I can't imagine what it's going to be like a few months from now. If I take anything out of this experience, it will be a huge network of people in my industry to exchange knowledge and skills with. I couldn't ask for anything more. Well,a couple bucks would be nice too.. I guess, but nothing else hehe..
