Hello From Darkest South Africa ... [posting an avatar]

Hi … Just flew in from Johannesburg RSA via who knows where cos I was fast asleep at the time. Now I’m faced with jet lag from flying thru so many time zones. Oh my soul! As Little Richard kept yelping on one of his vinyls back in the day. I’m like who hit me where?

Tried my best to put up an avatar and a profile pic but mine are all way too like large.

Wish I was more pc compatible but I’m more like bc compatable aka “before computer” cos I haven’t the foggiest idea how to like snip-snap my images so they’ll fit.

End result I’m gonna have to stay anon e mousse … I mean ano emeese … I mean like I am gonna have no image on my avatar or profile pic.

Someone said that a picture is worth a thousand words. But I don’t have a thousand and one words to describe what I look like, 'cept to say that I love fun and laughter and giggling at silly stuff and making fun of myself.

Hello!

Jello.(eta, I meant hello, but this seems appropriate, somehow) There is a web site called picsize.com. it will walk you through resizing your avatar to fit. I forget what size it needs to be. But the edit in user cp should tell you. I’m completely un-tech-y. If I can do it anyone can. Welcome. Fasten your seatbelt, it gets bumpy from here.
Oh, do you have any cats? Do you like pie?

Thread title edited to indicate question.

Have three cats last time I counted and I lurve apple pie. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm!

My apologies. Guess I neglected to read the TOS properly.

If you want to introduce yourself to the board, the best place for that would be to start a new thread in MPSIMS.

Sorry about your avatar. I have one, and nobody can figure out what it is (it’s spectacular).

Transit across the sun?

Looks like a series of time-release pictures of a planet orbiting the sun.

Screenshot from a very early version of “Scorched Earth”.

Everybody gets mine, I’m generous that way.(hint: it’s my profile)

What are you, an Andy Warhol alien?

Why, yes I am in fact, an alien.:wink:

Klaatu, barada nikto!

Yes, it’s the 2004 Transit of Venus, that I shot from Vienna. It took that planet 6.5 hours to cross the sun. I planned each shot, down to the second.

You just make sure you “remember those words”

Thanx for the advice … Much appreciated!

Thank you.

Klaatu… verata… n… Necktie. Nectar. Nickel. Noodle…no problem.

Since the OP has started another thread in MPSIMS, I’m closing this one.
