@ gabaghoul: that avatar is disturbing as hell. I have seen the full picture somewhere too. what the f*** is it?
it's from this artist/photographer named Charlie White. he did this bizarre series/book called Understanding Joshua, featuring this ugly-ass puppet in all sorts of weird social situations.
here are some more pics from the collection. it's hilarious stuff, truly demented. http://www.charliewhite.info/sub/work/2001.html
check out his other collections as well on the rest of his site.
also look up Matthew Barney's Cremaster series/exhibit for even more absurdity. or look up Chris Cunningham's Rubber Johnny on YouTube.

PLEASE stay on topic. thnX
I don't think we will miss peter as a guitar player a lot. We'll miss him as a friend of the band, a good member, who was there from almost the begining, and on all of our favourite albums. He's opeth, not only the players techniqe makes the band. The people do to.
We will all miss peter,and I'm sad to see there are no original band members (original to me is from the bwp era and so on. The band members before aren't big characters to me (don't flame me for this.. I simply like the new stuff more)).
stfu and go back to General Metal Discussion
to all of you who like me are stunned and saddened by peter leaving opeth, i'm here right with you cranking out "nectar"
to those of you celebrating the fact he's gone, berating his musicianship. saying that he's no better than any of you. you should all be ashamed. it's the same as if you spat in the face of a dead man. you people (and that's giving you far more credit than you deserve) should be ashamed. honestly how many of you are mikael akerfeldt? how many of you have been in opeth and can make decisions for the band regarding their personnel? how many of you have started out as a group of friends that have went on to sign with of the LARGEST metal labels on the planet?
if any of you fit the following criteria, i apologize, however, if you're a fan just like the majority of us, then please, JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!
I read it. And I think I'm gonna miss his nice solos too.
No "original"(BWP->) band members? Ahem... what about Mikael and Martin Mendez?
