Aloha!

I have taken the advice from Shawn when he posted about how to get the most out of forums:
http://puppetsandstuff.com/community/index.php/topic,994.msg31053.html#new

I decided that I like to put a face with a name and so here is my mug for all of you to relate to my posts.  My former name is Puppets and Pals which is still my puppet business name even though I am currently taking a bit of a break from performing.  My real name is Nikole.  I usually end all my posts with..."Aloha, Nikole."  I think this is now easier for all to see me and know me.  I have changed my name to view as Nikole H. instead of PuppetsAndPals.  I just wanted to re-introduce myself so that no one is confused by it.

So......Aloha,
Nikole

"Hi Nikole"

(I feel like we're doing group therapy   )

I'll add on my re-introduction.

My name is actually Naomi, but my nickname is 'Na' (as in the sound in neighbour).

Nikole what a beautiful mugshot........................ This is Billy D. Fuller back at you, and I'm sticking to it.

Naomi said: I feel like we're doing group therapy

Yes this is good from time to time.............. it gives the puppets a break.

It is great to be able to put a face with the name Nikole!  I know that not everyone well want to do this but I like it.

P.S.  Thanks for the "favor" you sent me.

Thanks for the photo!  It is always nice to put a real photo with a name!  Welcome back again!!  Are you sorting through all the things you learned during your trip to Asia!

(FYI - My name is Lisa Jeanne hence the LJ)

Welcome back from all your travels and such.  We missed hearing from you on forum.  What a lovely photo.  A while back I thought about changing my avatar to a picture of me or maybe me with a puppet.  You've got me thinking about it again.

As always I'm Jon

Aloha to you

And a lovely face it is too, Nikole - thanks.

The actual face photo is an interesting idea.  I remember seeing Dr. Puppet in his video for the first time and thinking how much more approachable he was after seeing him and hearing his voice.

No photo of me though, I like the anonymity.  I do use the same username between the two forums I visit.  I should keep the same photo as well.  I saw Stiqman on another forum with the same logo and it felt like seeing an old friend in a new location.  I'd like to switch to a logo myself.

Thanks for the reintro Nikole.  I didn't make the connection between your old user name and real name so this helps me.

It's a lovely photo of you Nikole and a good idea. It's amazing how much you connect with someone when you know what they look like - might try this myself!

Helen

Hey, I could make a puppet that looks like me!  I can't help think that Helen has pink skin and that Ron looks like Santa, so I guess I could at least represent my appearance more accurately with a puppet.  Wouldn't that be fun! Puppet look-alikes!
