Let's talk about FR screen names. How did you choose yours? Do you use your real name, a nickname, a silly name, a celebrity's name, your pet's name, or some other? Funny? Or serious?
With as many registered users as FR has, we are sure to see some highly unusual monikers. The first thing I thought of when I saw this name was:
Feiny (read more about her in our 09-18-02 Finest thread), as we like to call her, resides in California, and this is how she told us her screen name came about:
"I had a tough time coming up with a screen name. I tried several & they were not available. I remembered that my other half (do not call him Mr. Sukass) had called Diane Feinstein another name
..'Feinswine'. He said that is how he & his friends used to refer to her in San Francisco. For some strange reason, Feinswine was not available
so I added suksass..and PRESTO
I was a FReeper."
Let's talk about logos. If *you* had a logo, what would it be - your name? a favorite hobby? something you collect? Would we think of you each time we see a particular item? Those of us with regular, plain screen names sometimes get a nickname chosen *for* us, and it somehow sticks. With thanks to ST.LOUIE1 (who is much better known at the Finest as *Wolfie*), "Billie" soon became "BillieBlue", with a little bluebird as my sig.
I wanted to post a Few of Our Finest' logos here, and will post more later in the thread. Please feel free to show your own, and tell us why you chose your name. :)
Above is an early logo I made for Aqua based on her name, but after getting to know her better, as a sistah and hostess at the Finest, the following one - which she chose - fits her southern personality much better.
You've been seeing this guy at the Finest for a little over three years. He usually comes up for air once or twice a day to check in with us. :)
Our Fair Lady ... God bless her loving heart - she never runs out of kisses or interesting things to say.
Even before he grew into the suave, dashing and debonair wolfie he is now (in the photo below), he was still a bit of a rake and a rogue...but every bit as irresistible! (Plus he's helped me with some of the logos for today!) :*
Wolfie's partner in crime - that fox jwfiv....Yip AhRooooo!
Let us never have to wonder what the Finest would be like without Rev. Nan. :)
Or the honorable Mayor and his purple cup and daily devotional, not to mention his devotion to our Military and bringing us Military Monday week after week.
The distinguished and wise Mr.Owl, who diligently watches over us from his lofty perch.
MamaBear, aka Lori, always the fashion maven, shows off some of her jewels, furs and delightful chapeaus.
Yep! That's our Pipster! Any questions?! (((((((((Pip)))))))))
Amy has soooooo many logos (compliments of her 'bro') it's hard to choose which one to use, so I asked Louie to send me one of her favorites.
Hello, Dolly - it's so nice to see you here where you belong - on your bicycle, of course! :)
One of our most recent, and most patriotic! screen names - and even sweeter than this little angel. :)
As dutchess flies off into the wild blue yonder, I wish you all a beautiful good morning, and once again, my thanks to ST.LOUIE1, for some of these great logos you see above, and others that will be posted on the thread. Don't go way now! We've just begun to have fun!
