How can you tell you're verified?  I don't see anything to indicate it.  I ask because I submitted my pic for verification but I may have done it too soon...  I haven't been around longer than a week yet.  :/  Too bad I didn't know that was a requirement.  I don't think the requirements were listed yet when I sent my pic.  But I see you've only been around for 6 days too, so...  hmmm.
