Well I gotta tell ya, some of these personal icons are awesome. Jinn Fizz and Stupendous Man are two of my favorites. I'm interested in the meaning behind them. To some it just looks cool, to some there may be some history. Also, I think I know why BoXXi's is a box, but I don't know why he's BoXXi. What makes Corky_O Corky? Why does butch have a 123 and a motorcycle? What's a Jafo? Why did sbgFX kill the Spyder?

So if you got a minute, tell us why you chose your nickname and what, if anything, your icon represents.

I won't go first this time. Someone else.

SD...thanks for that. Will probably use the first when I can get around to sorting out the process to upload...just got a fair bit on right now.....puter problems again

aimzzz...I take it that you saw the funny side of it all...yeah, me too, after a few years to live down my embarassment. Glad there was nobody else around to do it, but I reckon a video would raise a giggle or two on Funniest Home Videos

I can't answer the question about whether you can change your nick, but if you can, how about something more affirming? I love your new avatar.

You can always change your display name but you can't change what people will call you (not without lots of deep personal effort )

My account > Account information > Vital stats > My Nickname. Change it to whatever you like.

If you haven't posted in this thread, please do. We want to know!

A few I'd like to hear from: RedBuzzard, ExodusCrow and Bash2Cool... we all know Bash isn't short for Bashful. What's the story?

If I didn't mention your name, I'd still like to hear about your nick & avatar. You're not exempt

Ms. Blindbatty just went to Blindbatty then again to; NEW NAME and a great meaning..

Cynder-Elluh

Goes back to my birth, my Dad wanted to name me Raquel and my mother and grandmother wanted to name me: Cinderella (yes, from the story), my Dad did not get his way but neither did my mother or grandmother.
I got a "version" of the name (Cinderella), so my new nickname at WC is decided. EVEN more different version of the name!!

mmm ... round the year 1999, I signed up at Yahoo, tried several different names, all taken... I love cacti and the desert, so came up with teddybearcholla ( a real cactus ), but had to be shortened to teddybcholla (yahoo only took so many letters)!
that's my story and I'm sticking to it!!!
