Why Do you use a Handle or nickname here?

I think it might be interesting to see why as artists or buyers we use an alias, handle or business names here at P5. So here's your chance.

What is your alias and why did you choose it?

I'm PhantomEWO.
I'm a retired USAF Officer who flew the F-4G Phantom Wild Weasel fighter jet. Therefore the "Phantom". I was trained as an Electronic Warfare Officer therefore "EWO"; so PhantomEWO.

I also have flight time in the F-4 C/D/E and G models, F-111, F-5, T-37, T-38, T-43 and other USAF aircraft. This is why I love flying my hang glider, powered parachute, motorcycles, ATV and snowmobiles. Anything that goes fast, is dangerous, or gets me off the ground is fun.

Ionescu is my family name and I did not choose it but it was given to my at my birth by my parents together with the local authorities that wrote my birth certificate. According to my birth certificate I am fully trained to see, to walk, to talk, to eat, to #### and from time to time to take a shower. The list is much bigger and I have the feeling that others won't feel good to see a mile long post.

Regards,
Christian I. IONESCU

I'm a amateur radio operator. My call sign is KK5HY
I've talked to people all over the world on voice or Morse code. Although code is pretty obsolete there are many out there that like to use it.

When i was in college, we used the film "Gods must be crazy" to do a comparative study of cultures of people living traditional lifestyle vis a vis modern way of life. i loved the little bushman so much that when i decided to put up my company, i coudnt help but call it BUSHMAN. Now everyone home, including my doughter calls me bushman. i hapen to be petite as well, just like the bushman.

Steve, (bushman).

I'm the real Bushman the Bryan Bush man... Never thought I would say this but I'm with Ionescu on this one, it's my given name. I use alias just about every other place on the net. Eternalspline is one I use allot, no one ever knows what it means.

Basically a curve drawn out in a 3D program is commonly refereed to as a spline. So a never ending spline, or line. I like this for allot of reasons. One because the first time I ever used a 3D program I stumbled across the spline tool and I couldn't figure out how to stop drawing it. Also because I used to play allot of online games like Quake 3 back in the Day. I used the name 3ternal and everyone knew me as that. So my email address would usually have Eternal in it so when someone looked at there contacts they would know.

My last name is French, so it was either french fry or french toast, I thought french toast was more exotic :p

Do most of you use the same handle across multiple stock sites that you sell at, or do you mix it up?

phantomewo ,

Thank you for your Service....

that aircraft's predecessor has quite the history, dating back to the mid-60's...

I believe there's a documentary on the History Channel regarding the squadron's inception.

they were ....First in....Last out....

I use the same on all photo and video sites, just easier
