Dunk is one of my favorites, too. Have you ever seen the fossils in the Cleavland Museum of Natural History? Incredible animal!
Welcome to SFN, Vigo -- heh, we are never frightened by reputations; and really, anyone who loves the Devonian placoderms can't be all that bad to start with. Looking forward to your input.

Hi everyone!
I've been lurking around as a guest for almost 6 months now. I've read many of the interesting threads here. I especially enjoyed the Big Bang threads and the "Ruminations on three types of woo-woo" thread.
As for me, I'm just a simple man out to learn as much as I can. I hope I can learn quite a lot from all of you and perhaps I can say something of value as well. In any case, glad to be here and thanks for the website. I've loved lurking and hopefully I'll have even more fun participating. |

Hey all. Dropped in on the chat last night. First place I stopped after getting connected to the internet again. I have missed SFN this past year. I look forward to good healthy debates again. It's good to be back. |

Trish, it's so good to see you back again. You've been missed, by me at least.
Have a chat with Dave to get you old avatar back... |

I'll have to do that or create a new one. Maybe if I can get the old dinasaur of a computer fired up - I'll pull one of my old drawings for that. |

Thanks. I've missed all of you guys too. I'm up for a good debate, but most of the ones I've gone through are at the point of levelling off. I'll be around to see what comes up. |

Great to see you back, Trish!
Sad to say, I don't even remember what your old avatar was. I just did a major clean-up on the avatars, too, and I deleted very few.
The easiest way to get a custom avatar up is to just email me with the avatar as an attachment or give me a link to what you want if it's already on the Web somewhere. (This goes for everyone, not just Trish.) |

It was a pencil drawing that I scanned and added color in photoshop. The file was draw2.jpg. If you deleted it no big deal, I'll just figure out something else. Like I said, if I can get the old dinosaur kicking, I might still have the file or something else I can use. If not, I'll just have to create something for me now. |

Was it a small version of what you've got as your photo in your profile? Hey, that is draw2.jpg! I can turn that into an avatar given just a few minutes later on tonight. |

Yep, that would be the one. |

Whole posts: only if you wrote them yourself, otherwise we have a potential copyright issue. Selected pieces are ok though, preferably with a link to the original, as this would fall under "fair use".
My ego is too big for me to even consider using something other than what I personally wrote . . . I like what I say too much to give time to others.
That said, I would still feel like cheating . . . I'll stick to original content only.
