I've been trying to think of a way members could honor 9/11. Many of you have posted blogs or forum comments today, but I think another way to honor our heroes lost on 9/11/01 would be appropriate.
Another social network (
Jimmy Buffett fans actually) did something interesting and told me about it, saying their members were thinking of firefighters on this day.
So I think we should do the same ... the link below is to a candle image that you can upload to as your profile picture. Please take a moment to view the photo, right click on it to download to your desktop, then visit your profile and change your profile photo to the candle.
The image can be downloaded here:

Once you post it, leave it up through the weekend in remembrance of 9/11. I hope we can get over 1,000 members to do this in a show of unity. Please pass this along to your friends and suggest they do the same with their MySpace or Facebook profiles.
