When I saw the first, I thought Larry expects to be engraved for the new
US currency.

#2. Set up your tripod. Sit where you'll be posing. Bring camera to
your eye and focus on the head of the tripod. Turn off AF. Mount the
camera. Adjust focus slightly as needed.
That is a great idea! I wish I had known about it 8 years ago when I was doing
self portraits with my SRT-101 by standing a broom handle where I was going to
stand, focused on it, then set the timer.
For what it's worth, here are a few from this afternoon:

When there is noone else around to photograph, self portraits can be a way to
experiment with lighting, however when it comes to actually getting decent
photos, I keep running into three problems:
1) Framing, I just have to set the camera wide and hope that most of what I
want is in the frame.
2) Focus, It's a hell of a lot easier using a camera with autofocus, but even
so the camera keeps focusing perfectly, on the wrong thing.
3) My biggest challenge is that self portraiture is like trying to make a silk
purse out of a sows ear, or perhaps the whole face.

Don't lose heart, they might want to cut it out, and they'll want to avoid a
lengthly search.
