...new to this
and quite curious / nervous about what it'll be like, very much like the people above (is "above" cc? ["cc" meaning "computerwise correct"]?, there being 64 pages on top / behind / somewhere deep down in whatever's memory?)
and what about me not being a native speaker of english?
but - to be true:
i've been spying around this place, i.e. reading stories, reading through the forums, looking at pictures (particularly keen on mobius's 'favourite pictures' thread), trying links offered ...
and I liked it
that's why I'm here

p.s.: I've not only been round threads promising pictures. I've also done some reading, and it was so good to find that there's a lot of no-nonsense and (more often than not) very caring people around (especially referring to "why I am who/what I am" threads). so: happy to be a "new member" and looking forward to it.
