Quebec City - for all the canadian players of course!
Miami - just seems like a great atmosphere, great players, and lots of importance
Moscow (Kremlin) - I like the players that go there, so many russians
Eastbourne - It's a nice, smaller grass tournament with a really appealing centre court (to me at least)
Madrid Masters Indoors/WTA YEC - The WTA tournament for the players and the court colour, and the mens for the court, the arena, and the hopefully good entry list.

Gosh! Any event with the top players is good for me! Preferably a US hard court one.

I was first SO excited for Acura, the roster had 9 of the top 10 players there. But, as injuries took out most of the field, I had to settle with Clijsters and Sharapova.

Of course I would like to see all the majors, but I also would like going to:
Indian Wells- This is the better tournament of the 'American Double' IMO. It's really cool that it is in a desert, and the area is just about tennis- nothing else. It's a really good 2-week tier 1 tournament.
Charleston- I would want a green clay tournament. I have been to Charleston before and I liked it. This is a big tournament and usually has decent draws.
Rome- I picked this over Berlin and Warsaw because it is much better weather and I prefer the clay in southern Europe to northen Europe (there is quite a big difference).
San Diego- Out of all the US Open Series events, this is the biggest and usually has the best draws (not tallking about the last 2 years though!). San Diego is very nice aswell.
Zurich- I'm not big on indoor tournaments because it just isn't the same as outdoor. It feels almost depressing sometimes when you're watching tennis inside. However, Zurich would be my favourite because it is really modern and is the climax of the indoor season. Moscow is a horrible arena from what I've heard. Stuttgart would be my second favourite indoor event though.....and Tokyo is a nice indoor event aswell.
Auckland- I have always wanted to visit New Zealand, and although it is a tier 4 event, it usually has good draws because it is the first tournament of the season.
I wouldn't want to visit any tournaments in England because I would want to go away. stevos, I have been to Eastbourne before and I don't think it is a very nice place at all. The arena is ugly aswell. Queens club is lovely though.

Indian Wells and San Diego are VERY beautiful. Carlsbad(San Diego) is right off the coast, there's a marvelous view of the Pacific. Although Indian Wells is a desert, it is very unique and has great views. Lots of palm trees.

Indian Wells always looks god on TV becuase of the palms. If I had to pick one event, it would be this one for many reasons.

To get a larger avatar, you got to uupload your picture onto the internet (perhaps via photobucket.com) and paste the URL of it into the "Link to off-site Avatar" option.

but the smalls ones because it doesn't have 8kb should be ok without any problem .. ..why Photobucket ? it should work easily because it's not a wallpaper that i wanna use as an avatar ..it's a small picture everybody who registered here had to make an acount at photobucket ?

Romy, you don't have to use photobucket. I personally upoloaded my avatar from my computer... hence the smaller picture. I think I have the largest picture you can upload if you don't use an avatar from the internet.
Btw I am planning to change my avatar and use a picture from the internet but I have been lazy...
Then again, you don't have to have an avatar. One of our oldest and most active members never uses one (NEA)
Anyhow, welcome here. We hope you can stay and join Fantasy Tennis League. It is really fun. Even though it is off-season, many of us are involved with FTL and is filling the void. We are playing French Open now.
