I used to go by BestSnowman, and still use it on forums other than CP (yes there are other forums but I have a combined total of 4 posts at all other forums I have posted). It is reflected in my hotmail and yahoo accounts (can't remember my yahoo password though :laugh: Matt Newman Post best viewed with lynx
