More rock gods and other stuff

Added Gil McKinney to the poster and here's him on his own. Used another of wolfpup2000's terrific pics as a reference.

And placed on the poster (though I might move people around yet, it's very much a work in progress!)

Plus thanks katwoman76 and marciaelena - I've made the changes you suggested!

Plus yesterday I went to see Eddie the Eagle - if you get a chance to see this movie, go!
Honestly, I had this huge smile on my face the whole way through but had a hard job not to sob like a baby at the end. Me, my cousin and my movie buddy Christine were all sitting there as the credits rolled, with big fat tears running down our faces; we looked round and 90% of the people there were in the same difficulties! Such a feel good film, and so inspiring. I mean, I knew the basics of his story because I remember his appearance in the Winter Olympics in Calgary, but I hadn't realised the true struggle behind him getting there. Anyhow, I could babble on and on but basically, if you feel down, or need something to show how sheer determination can lead to so much joy, watch this film.

I have wanted to see that film for AGES!

And awesome addition to the poster! ♥

Oh I loved it SO much. I always thought of him as being a fun thing and I hadn't realised he'd actually been a good enough downhill skier to get into the Olympic team but got thrown out because his face didn't fit, or that he'd had so many health problems when he was a kid.

It's such a shame that he didn't fulfil that dream, but look at what he did accomplish!

Gil. <3

Looks great with the changes--though it looked great before, too.

Thanks! But you and Kat were right, it makes more sense this way round!

And thanks for mentioning Eddie The Eagle, I wasn't sure about seeing it at the cinema or waiting for the DVD but you've inspired me!
