No, I had that for a long time, but these are from 2005.

Wellz, I suppose I'll wear one of my old avatars and signature. They are probably from late 2008 or early 2009.

Well, I have only ever used this name (other than a few brief event-related name changes), so I joined in with the people using old sigs and avatars. \:D/ This is one of my oldest and most beloved sigs and avatars! \:D/

And back to the original topic of the thread, Catspaw comes from "The Last Great Adventure of the Summer," which I had listened to recently before I joined the AIO online fan community, and I like cats, and it just seemed like an awesome name! \:D/

I always liked Smaug the dragon.

Sadly, after almost an entire lifetime of pronouncing it as something akin to "Smog", I find out that it's actually more "Sm'ow'g" than anything. :( A more disillusioning moment I have never experienced.

I can't wear my first avatar because I don't remember what it was - something from the library I think. This avatar is probably my second avatar though, it took me a while to find it again. ^_^

Smaug, your name always makes me think of "What's Opera, Doc?" when Elmer Fudd is trying to kill Bugs and he's like, "SMOOOOOOOGG!"

For what it's worth, I've always known you as Anemone.

Hmmm. I don't really recall why I have this username precisely, besides the fact that it's an AiO name. I know that I never used it as a username or pseudonym until I found the ToO. Now, it's almost instinctual. This is the username I use everywhere.
It's been awhile, hasn't it?

I might as well go with my original set. I've continued to use it over the past two years so meh, doesn't really count.

My username is ... a shortened version of my name. :thud:

My original ToO username "Christina S" or "Christina" is my middle name. The former stands for "Christina Scott" which is my imaginary pen name. \:D/
