    Mine is fairly self-explanatory; the "scot" is obviously for my Scottish heritage, while the "cajun" is for the fact that I am a Cajun "by the ring and the back door", in reference to my wife's French Acadian/Cajun heritage.

    My current avatar is the Iowa state tartan, in honour of the land where my Scottish ancestors settled after immigration. My Newsome box-pleat is made from this tartan (in ancient colours).

    Mine is a Scottified version of Cleftref which is a play on the Welsh spelling of Clever Trevor where a single f is a v.

    Sealark came from a co-worker of mine, I had purchased a boat and was throwing around some names, he came up with Sealark. He just used my last name of Clark and changed the spelling, the name kid of stuck and I decided to use it here since there were enough Clark's around. Besides the other alternative boat name would have been Small Craft Advisory, long story from my novice boating days, Sealark works for me. No avatar yet, but will have one soon.

    We Australians refer to Australia as "Oz". I'm an "Oz" man, born in 1944- hence, "Ozman1944"

    Way back when you had to know Unix to get around the internet, I took my name (Mark Hall) and reversed it for "Hallmark". It wasn't too many years before everybody and their dog had an internet account and hallmark became widely used by many. Since I reside in Texas, I simply attached "Tex" to the end.

    I am, unfortunately, avatar ignorant. The creation of a unique avatar is a project I have yet to master.

    I've borrowed my username from my dog - The mighty Belgian sheepdog Iano.

    My avatar is of the tartan of my first kilt, Macinnes hunting modern. Hope to have it soon.

    My name is from the first letter of my first and last names. And the avatar - the Clan MacRae badge to honor my mother's side of the family.
