Zetan

Strangly, since I'm a Metal Head, Zetan was inspired not by the alien menace known as Zetan but rather the Trance group, Zetan Spore. I shortened it further to ZTN because I like the shape the letters take together on the screen.

My first user name was LAB DESIGN, at the time I was a freelance graphic designer doing artwork for local dance, trance, house events, flyers, album art and logo's. The LAB stands for, Life's A Beat and went on to become LAB Radio, a heavy metal radio station. This will later return with a new domain name when I think up something suitable.. and as you all know, finding a good domain name which isn't already in use is a bit of a nightmare and I've been wracking my brain for over a week..

Phew!

bloc

Bloc...pretty obvious right? :)

actually not..I didn't think of "blocks" before long after I took the name. Its in fact the norwegian variant of Ben Grimm - the Thing in fantastic Four(back in 80s, later it changed to another name). My fav magazine in my teen years. I liked the shortness of "Bloc", so it stuck with me into the net.

Omniverse

Fantastic Four was(is) one of my favorite comics, that and the Incredible Hulk..... Never figured Blocs name came from Ben Grimm hehe.

Omniverse was a name I created back in the early 90's. I began messing around with the WWW back then and needed my own personal monicker. I thought long and hard before coming up with it.

Omni = All encompasing
Verse = as in the universe

Yes, I was full of myself hehe. Most think my name stems from the Omniverse coined in comics, or from the actual word omniverse which didn't used to exist (before a few years ago). The comic version was before I created the name, but I wasn't aware of it, plus its not like you could search for things like that back then on the WWW.

My name!!! Grrr......

fangweile

My username comes from my chinese name, its fang wei le

I don't like to use underscore so it ends up with fangweile ^_^

Spize

Mine was simply a typo that everyone thought was so original, I litterally was trying to find a good name back in the prodigy days and typed out a few, had spi on the screen thinking of one and slammed my hands on the keyboard...  I apparently hit z, e, and the enter key... it wasn't taken so I just used it.

Wonga

I race pigeons and the Wonga pigeon is a native Australian pigeon.

Gatlin1

Mine was given to me at birth. I had no choice.  :idiot2:
