My red-headed husband and I came up with that name for our home-made wine. My initials are keg. Seemed appropriate.

I came up with the name at another forum when I first started to get into SEO.
I didn't have a clue, and my knowledge was to say the least basic.
hense SEbasic. S-E-basic
I also use Pikin_It_Up on another forum. That was because I managed to screw up the sign up process (don't ask me how), and as a result couldn't use SEbasic there.

I was the only one on my block growing up without a multi-syllabic name. Everyone I knew had a name that can be shortened. (Michael=Mike, Patrick=Pat, etc.) They gave me Glenathon and I've used it ever since.

I'm new at creating a web page and just getting ready to start my first page. My question is how do I insert a blank giff image and swapp imgage when I don't have one in my site folder? I want to do roll overs but I need to have these blank images, where do I find them? How do I create them.

Wise, please ask your question in the appropriate forum and I'll delete this one after that. Or, you can edit your post in this poll to tell how you got your username. Thanks.

Mine is BeeKreative. My husband & I are just starting to raise bee's, so I thought I'd have that as a part of my name.
And because I'm Kreative, I chose to go by beekreative. I prefer creative to be spelled with a "K," rather then the typical "C." Although my first initial is with a "C."
BeeKreative, Yes that is me!!

I was debating what the dbz was. I figured it was either Dragon Ball Z or it was Da Bi Z (like someone that knows all about business).
Thanks for straightening me out.

my name... pretty self explanitory... the reason i use it on ALL the forum sites i run rather then some coded s/n is kinda vain actually, lol. it's so that it will show up in search engines better... thus showing my personal photography porfolio site more often - www.mikepanic.com
and in the nearly 4 years ive had the site... its worked out VERY well for me

cjvj = the first letters of my full name, also sounds catchy. (CJ is better though)
CJ for short (forum would not let me have 2 letter name though)

This is really boring, but I just added the initial of my surname to my first name, Sara.
(But it does look a bit like 'scarab', which is as close as I'm likely to get to being exotic!)

At first glance, I thought it was scarab!

Jeof0411 is my name and my birthday Jeoffory + April 11th 04/11
For clarification i should note that I rarely have any usefull 411 (information). I've been using this one for about 4 years.
UserName / Handle Timeline :
(1995) MonsieurAisselle, Aisselle french for Mister Armpit / Armpit. I was young... new to the internet and ISCA BBS and MUDs. I was a teenage poseur and tried to be as weird and non-conformist as possible... because it was cool to be non-conformist like everyone else.  (Pun intended)
(1997) Mireil My family name. I didn't keep this name long because i soon realized everything thought i was a girl.
(1998) spEEdfrEEk Experimental time in my life. nuff said.
(2000) RequiemForADream After the movie/book. movie hit way to close to home but is one of my faves.
(2001) Jeof411 was my AOL handle but then I got in a fight with them and refused to pay my bill while they left my account on for 4 months.
(2002-present) Used another credit card and got AOL again with the adjusted name Jeof0411 and have used it since to cut down on confusion except for a brief stint with the handle One800Sketchy during a brief? relapse into experimentation.
