Hi Tanya!

Welcome from a fellow newcomer! This board is full of really great people -- they will make you feel right at home. You have excellent taste in favorite Japan songs, BTW. :)

Oh, and I too love Duran Duran and the whole New Romantic era. So much fun, huh? :-)

Ari

Hey there! Methods of Dance is one of my all-time favourites. :) And I'm also a huge fan of Duran Duran.

So you're from Birmingham? I'm from Pensacola, so you're not too far from me.

Hi Tan----

Glad to have you here-----we all seem to be in agreement on our likes. I was and still am a huge Duran Duran fan, also love Spandau Ballet, as well as Depeche Mode, InXS, Split Enz................and on to infinity.

I'm one of the old school at 40 years young, but as you can probably tell, I don't act my age at all---heck, why bother? As old as you feel, they always say, and I feel like a kid............. :-D


Hope you have a blast here, and come visit often!!!!

I did not realize that VH1 Classic actually had their video----that is good to know...................

There are a large avatar gallery with loads of them!!!
I did my own siggie though it's very simple cause I'm terrible at photoshop (I guess I don't have the time and the patience to learn how to use it properly :wink: ) but we have real graphic artists here (and I'm not kidding) and I'm sure they won't mind at all to make one for you.
I like yours...I'm great DD fan too!!!

I agree- Awesome sig!! I lurve it!

About avatars- I realise that the only ones available are album covers and David Sylvian I APOLOGIZE and I will be making a ton more of the other band members too. I will also add more album covers that I missed previously!
