Hi Friends!

I was going to start a group with this name, then discovered it already existed!! Thanks so much!!!!

The only thing I was going to do differently was to ask people (when posting a photo - or maybe even when they comment) to include their old flickr usernames in order to help us find old friends.

What do people think?

peace,
raingirl (raingirl26 - flickr) EDIT - oops, my bad, that's poetryraingirl - flickr

p.s. I'll be telling the other expatriates I've found here about this group.

I was Valjfal on Flickr, but was able to drop the letter j out of the user name when I signed on here. It's the username that I wanted there, but it was already taken. I guess this is why ipernity should be my home :-)

I dropped my flickr user name ThreadedThoughts after I noticed the last couple of letters of my user name were stepping on other user names of the thumbnail photos of other users. I put it in my banner behind my name.

I'm liking this place.......

Hi all. In my former life at the f place, I was Stoney Runes, (www.flickr.com/photos/37324090@N00) but have decided to come out with my real name. I hope to meet some of my former flickr contacts here and elsewhere on Ipernity.

And...of course, to meet Ipernity members who have never even been to flickr. :)

oh yes, of course is right! we always want to meet more new friends in the photography world - and they have been kind enough to make room for us.

Hi Tobias! Welcome (belatedly). Thanks for adding you Flickr name here.

I notice that you have only joined this group. If you are looking for comments, one way is to join a group that is relevant to you, then make some comments on others' photos. (Please excuse me if I'm being out of line - only trying to help people get what they want from ipernity!)

peace,

I have still 4107 photos on Flickr. But I have not been posting there anymore since I joined Ipernity.

raingirl club has replied to Gary Schotel club
Lots of us have left our photos back on flickr, dormant accounts - was your user name there the same as here? (Just to see if anyone here was following you over there, they would know it was still you!)
