No you don't, you just make your profile picture you with your newborn. Mission accomplished

I hate when people tag kids as themselves, and other people. You'll see So-in-so was tagged in an album, you'll click on the album to see what they've been up to, or how last night's even was as you missed it, and voila there's some kid who's been tagged 14 times as 14 people not pictured.

Ever need to find a good picture of someone for creating an event for their birthday/special event, and you scroll through pages of pictures of kids and not one picture has them in it.

Seriously, tag if the person is in the picture, not because you want them to see it. If you want them to see the picture post a link on their wall.

But the pictures are small to begin with so really at least for the first one you want a close up. I stand by the practice for the first while

By having them smaller in the picture it forces them to visit you and bring presents and stuff for the baby, saving you money! See what I'm on to here?

I'm the same way, but I will upload pictures of her to my photo album. (My family and friends are mostly out of town)

On a related note, how come FB is discouraging joining of groups now? They seemed to have moved towards 'pages' or something.

Ditto . . . . everyone fits in there unless they're the person who signed up and does nothing but lurk.

And I'm definitely on the list too.
