h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Flown away, just like that

Just wanted to pop n and say hello, really

What do you mean, 'just like that'? It's taken them about 2 years to finally leave their nest..but yes it is a bit of a shock now there's no more of that hectic business of getting airborn on my space..all a bit it's a bit quiet

Nice to see you. I also really like your upside down avatar. It is weird to suddenly have an identity that is visual as opposed to a name and tag. But really we can change them as much we do our names if we want..or not. I don't think jwf has ever changed his name though..so for him..it's more tricky to not feel pinned down by an image. Because yes, the 'image' works on the emotions in a different way..hence all the fuss about iconoclasm in various religions, and at various times.

I'm a big fan of both..in two minds

Oooh, imagine future Spartacus campaigns with avatars. Or Halloween anagrams

(RF's already done the muffin one)

Nice switch graphic btw.

Just like that, all of a sudden without a warning

The upside down avatar was because I had two pictures turned down for unfathomable reasons. This upside down picture was originally meant as a cheeky suggestion, but finally I liked it and it stuck

And yes, for some reason images may stick more than the nicknames, even if we do change them as often and creatively. We'll see! I look forward to see what everyone will come up with (if anything). I really miss the long nicknames, they were like a parallel conversation going on in the space around the threads.

And your switches are cool, too
