    Yes, I have fallen victim to a few picture packs. I don't buy many. Maybe one, two of three picture packs a year. Mainly, the free ones released are good enough.

    I have before, but only a few that I really wanted. For the most part I'm good with the free ones.

    I've never paid for any pic packs. I guess I've sorta paid for pics on OXM discs, since I have to pay for the magazine, but that doesn't really count.

    It's already known that your pics and themes will still work.

    I buy a few pics and themes from time to time. I like having a theme to match the game I'm playing at the time and I perhaps naively hope that by buying a gamer pic pack I'm helping support the developer.

    I can't remember if the Fallout picture pack was free or not, so maybe. Otherwise, I wouldn't pay for any, although I've eyed the Adult Swim ones a couple times.

    I was weak and bought a couple =\ When you can only buy 500 points, and pac-man costs 400 points, it is so, so easy to spend the last few on a picture of Ryu. ;_;

    The only pack I actually paid for was one of the classic Rare packs. I wanted those Jet Force Gemini icons. I'm not totally against paying for packs, but they should definitely lower the damn price on them.

    I bought the Control Alt Delete pic pack (cheap and you get tons of them).

    I also got the Samurai Jack pics and theme. I'm obsessed with that show. I'll be pissed if they don't let me be the Scottsman when the new dash rolls out.

    Which gives me an idea for my forum icon...

    I paid for a Banjo Kazooie picture pack, I know it was a waste of money, but it sure looks purty!

    Themes are a total waste of money though, they usually look crappy and have the worst pictures on the blades that I most use.

    Never will, it's pointless, stupid, and a waste of my money.

    I had downloaded XBLA games and movies though. Renting movies on Xbox is pretty convenient and I can't wait to get my Netflix Instant Watch on.

    I find it a bit of awaste to buy pictures that I can't use anywhere else. Maybe if a really awesome Rayman or Banjo-Kazooie picture pack comes out, but right now I get the freebies, and i'm perfectly happy.
