So, where'd you get your username from?
Mine is actually from a dream I had when I was about 11. It stuck, and I've been using it on the internet ever since.

Mine is just mirage but with a different spelling. Now that you say that, it makes a lot more sense! |

Haha, I noticed. I was a little shocked when I discovered you were WildMaven, after you put it in your signature. If you ask Artemis, he'll confirm my near heart attack. xD

Well mine is an adaption of a name I started using on the internet when I was like 11 or 12...I was dumb and thought it was cool...
Netopalis means warrior in the Deleware Native American launguage....it does mean something to me in a sense. I'm in the Order of the Arrow which is Boy Scouting's national honor society and our values are based with that tribe.
Net just evolved from it because I now don't really like the full name lol

Yeah, mine too. One of the best pieces of advice I have ever read for photographers online is to use your real name when ever possible, if you want people to associate your work with your name that is. I used to use an alias that I use on a few different forums, but after I changed over to using my real name, especially on Twitter, I get a ton more view and a lot more sales. |

That's really interesting Scott. Huh...
I don't know that I'd want to use my real name on Twitter though, because it's so long. >_<
