    Heehee...No creativity at all on my side! I have just used my real name on these forums - I changed my avatar because:

    1)Although I like being a silent assasin, I really am not bald and I like to talk a lot, and silent assasins don't talk!
    2)I also like to be funny, so I chose Jazz which is a mix of funny character and a hero too..Plus, as I am slightly (and I mean slightly, not what you'd think) fat the picture of Jazz chomping that carrot really pictures me well, as I often keep chomping on some bread...

    Elwyn & Darwin are my sons, so I choose the name Eldar on this marvellous forum..
    As for my avatar it speaks for itself.:D It's about the region I live in and I don't want to change it. Maybe a little updating/refreshing, but that's all. :rolleyes: :D
    The same avatar is used at the other forums too.
    And I really like it too. It fits you well. ;)

    Glad to meet you Capp. :)

    I'm so glad this thread is bringing people out. I have wondered about some of the names and pics on here and it's good to find out the story behind it.

    Eldar -> I always thought you name represented what an eldar is (older wise person in a tribe)

    Thank you to everyone :D

    You're right, but it wasn't my intention. :D
    Reminds me of all the books I've read from Raymond E. Feist. I really like/enjoy fantasy novels. :cool:

    No, No not stupid at all. I many times wonder the same thing about all the Creatures here at the Wilders Forest. ;) Now back to business:

    Mercurie=Mercury (more on that later)

    Mercury planet closest to the sun. Mercury the only substance on earth that is a liquid but is not wet. Mercury is poison to consume, be warned. Mercury a Roman or Greek (I forget) messenger of the Gods. And finally one of my favorite movies "Brave Heart" near the beginning after Wallace beats the crap out of the English almost single handedly the clans are gathering around him shouting something that sounds like: Mer-curie...Mer-curie...Mer-curie... I have no idea, but the next time you see the movie listen for it. If someone knows something about that let me know please?

    The Avatar: The colors with the Mercurie name very cool. The Hawk looks like it is about to call out and swoop down and attack something that it's quick sharp eye has seen. Much the way I like to go after a problem. It all just seems to be for me. Finally I use this name on many forums (not all) chances are good it is me. Unless someone steals it before I get there. :D

    Don't change BigC it just seems to be you. It fits perfectly BigCurt: a wise yoda who is always working on creatures machines to fix them. Always helping with Virus software and virus study. A real Icon here at the wilders at least to me. I could say more but I think many would agree and most know already what I mean. ;)

    Wow...that's a lot of reasons to use the name. Very cool.

    Mercury was a Roman god of Commerce - Speed and Skill

    here is the last thread we had similar to this - I still cannot find the older one I keep thinking of - I suppose it might be off in the archives from a few years back or something. Anyway my answer is in that one and the avatar is obvious - made for me by the lovely and kind Uguel :D

    Let me say up front that I am not shy and I do visit here but as my time is spread rather thin, I only have time to read a few threads and then have to leave. :( However, I certainly cannot resist posting in this thread.

    Those who know me from other sites, know that my name really is Corrine. I didn't have to look far for something that wasn't in use. It's my avatar that is special to me. I may dress it up for the holidays, but my rose goes with me everywhere. It is a gif a friend from the first forum I registered at -- and someone who has remained a friend for five years now. I think that is pretty special!

    (P.S. Hi everyone!)

    Hello Corrine I do not think I have meet you, very nice avatar with a good reason to keep it as your "icon".

    I very much understand your time being "thin." Hope to see you around more.

    Name arises from favourite activity.
    Still the best for the soul.
    I have group of friends with whom I have surfed for 30 years.
    Some did not make it but those who did are the true tribe.

    Avatar as provided.
    Always loved DD and it looks just like I feel when dealing with some of the issues that arise here in the Wild lands.

    Duck season :D
