I'd be perfectly fine adding pictures of my BPs. :] I think that if you asked the people here a lot of them would feel the same about it. It could be a great way to get the galleries going!

Maybe have a rule of white background, or lighter colored plain background to keep the images consistent. It's easy enough to put a snake on a sheet and get some shots of it. It'd keep the galleries clean and similar, even with pictures from lots of different people.
