Just wanted to send out some quick Thanks to all the people who sent me birthday greetings, or even surprised me with some little gifts. While I'm at it, thanks to all the new people who have started watching me during the recent weeks and months, as well. Glad you enjoy my posts here. Cheers!

For something completely different, what's up with dA's new feature to change user names? I understand why some people feel the need to do it, but if this turns into a habit, it's going to be really hard to keep track of people and not get confused. Some people already change their avatars at frequent intervals, so the user name is pretty much the only permanent identificator... until now that is. I'm also wondering about things like bookmarks and links -- won't those stop working, as soon as people change their user name, and thus the URL of their profile and submissions... ? Hmm.
