Hi Researcher 227069

Welcome to h2g2 I'm Emmily one of the many <./>ACEs</.> (Assistant Community Editors) We're here to offer you a warm welcome advice & links to help you find your way around

I'm a real person not an automated computer programme to find out about me click on my name above this conversation thread you can do that on anyone's name in any conversation thread

I see your finding your way around that's great, I'll still offer you my usual list of links

Have a & some or and put your feet up relax & let your fingers do the walking

You can click on any of the links below

You can click 'Preferences' on the screen to change your number to a name or to change the skin (background) there are 3 to choose from brunel alabaster or classic goo you might like to experiment a bit see which one you prefer to use

You might like to hitch a ride on our <./>DontPanic-Tour</.>

These are just a few of the great list of <./>Smileys</.> you can choose from

The slang used here can be a bit confusing h2Jargon - A632431 or h2g2 Glossary - A901829 explains most of it

You can customise your space using what is available through h2g2 Spicing up Your Page - A690518 gives some good advice I'm also a Guru so I can help with any GuideML problems you may have

You may find 'Hints and Links for New Researchers' - A719840 useful

Like most communities we have Clubs & Societies You can find out about these - A660340

If your interested in writing for the Guide Writing-Guidelines is a good place to start

You can click this link <./>RandomEditedEntry</.> Though where it goes nobody knows

Another couple of things..we have a tag which displays the name of the researcher visiting the page so don't be concerned if you see your name on someone's space that researcher is just using tag some of them are quite amusing but harmless

And the 'eyes' next to a researchers name show they are online

Hope you find these helpful & you enjoy yourself here to reply to this post If you have any questions or if you just want to say 'hi' click 'reply' below

Hello Emmily.

Thanks for all the info. Yeah it all seems a bit overwhelming at the mo, but that's cool cos there's lots to explore. I'm just gonna bumble around for a bit trying to figure stuff out, tho I'm probably gonna have 2 bug u 4 info about have to do stuff. How do u do all those cool picture things? I know it's gonna be like really obvious.

Thanx Pete

Nice to hear from you Pete, no problem, ask away, if I can't help,I'll soon find someone who can.

I assume you mean the smileys

For it's < smiley > without the spaces.

For it's < ale > without the spaces.

for it's < biggrin > without the spaces.

for it's < porkpie > without the spaces.

for it's < ok > without the spaces.

There's a full list on the <./>smileys</.> page.

Hope that helps, don't hesitate to ask anything else.

Emmily

thank u Emmily

fantastic

You got the sussed then

Yeah and I have to say that i think it's fantastic that there's a symbol for pork pies. I thought I was the only 1 who had a fetish 4 them. Scotch eggs are still the best tho.

hmmm pork pies

Bad news I'm afraid Pete.

I just looked up the Smiley Ideas List there's no Scotch Egg on the list, and as the list is currently closed, it's unlikely they'll be a Scotch Egg smiley in the near or maybe even distant future.

Emmily

ah never mind - i'll just have 2 binge on pork pies. Cheers 4 looking.

I checked out your home-page type thingy as well which was cool. A 2 z's a good idea, I might steal it if u don't mind and promise not 2 beat me up. I hope u keep those tigers under control.

Glad you liked my page,

I can't take the credit for the A to Z idea, as I nicked that idea from someone else. your welcome to copy the idea.

Don't worry about Bruno, Tyson and Rocky, they're under control and more importantly, well fed.

I see you've not clicked 'Preferences' yet, and given yourself a nickname, it's much easier and more friendly for other reseachers to communicate with a name, rather than a number.

Emmily

cheers - I've been wondering how people get about. I may be researcher 227069 now, but soon i will be cosmic love child.

Hey, you have a name, Cozmik Luv Child

It's 1.15am, I'm way past my bedtime. Goodnight.

Emmily

Ah but you're forgetting the quintessential Dylan Thomas quote


DO NOT GO QUIETLY INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT

RAGE, RAGE AGAINST THE DYING OF THE LIGHT.

Sorry I'm just bored. R U UP 2 ne thing exciting?

Pete xx
