                Frederik - is my second "first name"...
                I chose Frederik because I know in many countries Kim is often a female name (although it's also used as a male name in the same countries) and to avoid any confusions (misunderstandings), I decided to use Frederik... ๐Ÿ˜„

                Cheers
                Kim Frederik

                    my nickname is, you guessed, my given name. not a lot of creativity there...

                    as for my avatar, it is a good picture of me taken by a student during a lecture. that is, good compared to the horrible results one gets when posing for a photograph.

                      Well Dale is my first name. Although it can be male or female, in this case "it's a boy"
                      The avatar is a photo of a painted wood carving I did taken from a photo in front of my house. It's a raven on the cliffs edge with a small pocket cruise ship on the water below.

                                I actually got more than a thumb that went numb when I was suffering from repetitive strain injury, which stopped me from using my PC for a while.
                                At least it makes a perfect rhyme.
                                Not sure if I could find one for low back pain ๐Ÿ˜†
                                As for the avatar: I found it on the Explodingdog site http://www.explodingdog.com/
                                ( hope itยดs not copyrighted ). That funny character having hard time over some impossible shape seemed quite OK.

                                Comfortably numb...

                                  Can't remember where I found it, but I thought it was "funny" and took it... ๐Ÿ˜„

                                    My anickname [to use its old-English form as 'other-name'] is my initials T+I+G .
                                    I was called that from ~5 at junior school - someone older than me had the same first-name [out of 7 pupils ! what's the chance !!]
                                    Later, I kept it up and signed all my manual-drawings and letters with my initials - so it stuck...
                                    Also near to where I was born the local Army Regiment [of my grandfather] and the Rugby Football team were/are the Tigers; and of course tigers are strong/fierce/powerful/potent etc etc... [or cute/funny if 'tigger'...] - it has little 'downside' except for becoming extinct !!!
                                    I prefer it to my 'real name' - which is a bit 'naff' - BUT my mum [see 'Brief Encounter' lead for a clue...] and close family would still use my original name - as would one of my old-fashioned bosses years ago who wouldn't allow nicknames... I'll answer to almost anything...

                                      My nickname story ...

                                      I'm an architect, I live and do a fair amount of work in the Sierra Nevada mountains (we live about 1-1/2 hours from the Yosemite Valley floor), so ... MtnArch!

                                          I have too many outlandish things to say and my rants often end up in someones search results
                                          A word of warning; a client googled my name one day and found me ranting about the war on this forum. So I decided to changed it. Looking around the house for inspiration I saw the word Linea on the label in a jumper. (There is a UK department store called Debenhams, their own brand is called Linea)

                                          As for the avatar, my friend is an actor, for a while he had a drama company called Rare Breed and wanted a suitable logo so I just mashed 2 photos together. I keep thinking I should have a go at modelling the critter in SU.
