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

... and welcome to h2g2 - again.

I know this is all rather belated but I'm one of the <./>ACEs</.> (Assistant Community Editors) who volunteered to help show people around the site. I've been checking back into the h2g2 archives for researchers who might otherwise think they had been ignored. I suspect you don't need any help but, since you've only recently activated your personal space, I thought I'd drop by just in case.

You said you weren't sure about using your personal space. You can type in plain text mode just the same as in conversations - including those ever-popular and populous <./>Smileys</.>. However, if you switch to editing in GuideML mode, you can do a lot more fancy formatting and have access to a larger collection of graphics in the <./>GuideML-PictureLibrary</.>.

Here are a few more links you might like to try. A660340 is a list of "Clubs and Societies" on h2g2. <./>Askh2g2</.> is a good place to start or join a random conversation. You could try the infinite improbability drive on the "Front Page" if you don't know where you want to go or <./>search</.> if you do. See the guide entries too important to be merely a number at <./>NamedEntries</.>.

Above all, have fun and don't panic. If you do find yourself tempted to panic, click the "h2g2 Help" link on the left. It may help.

If you have a question, click on the reply link below and I'll be back. Otherwise, feel free to ignore this message.

Hi SEF!

How's it hanging? Thanks for the welcome.

Hello again. I'm not sure anything's hanging [quick check of self]. No and no lanterns either unless you count lightbulbs hanging from the ceiling.

Have you logged in again for any reason in particular other than, of course, to say thanks to me? Sometimes h2g2 loses researchers for years who are then mysteriously rediscovered. Those sub-ether devices must be a bit flaky or there are still too many backwaters in the galaxy without enough passing traffic.

A bit of ennui, SEF. And, of course to say 'Hi' to you! No doubt I'll do a bit more with my space in time.

Wonders if there's a more appropriate smiley for me than a ?

I suppose some combination of wouldn't do. There are some old smileys preserved only as blobs (ie can be used in articles but not in threads). I put a few on A999994 but not all the tiny images are there.

No, I see your point.

Just had a look at the link and there are some *really* neat blobs there!!! I love the bicycle one. Just think what Just zis Guy would make of it!

?

Nah!

I think I'm about to change the page for a new theme anyway.
