Hi there.
I thought I would introduce myself, but before I bore you, I have two questions. I can't seem to upload a profile-pic although I entered a url. I also want a banner beneath my post. How is that done?
Okay, about me.
Swedish, 19 years old, been a Buffy-fan since I was ten-ish when the first season first aired in Sweden.
I don't like to call myself a Buffy-fan, more of a Buffy-freak. If you through a quote at me I will probably be able to give yoú the episode it's from, I buy Buffy-stuff for about 100-150 bucks a month(which is freaky considering that I don't have a job), I watch atleast one Buffy or Angel episode a week, and spend hours and hours in front of the computer making fanart, fanvids, reading fanfics, watching fanvids, talking about the Buffyverse...
I think you get the picture.
I joined slayalive because I want my cover to be on After the fall. Okay, my idea might become a cover, you know what I mean.
Right now I'm looking forward to 30 april because then I'll go to England to watch James.
I hope I'll have a lot of fun here and get to know new people. Also, I should warn you, since I'm Swedish, I can piss people of without realizing it just by phrasing badly. Not that I can't be a bitch, but it could be a mistake.
Peace out.

Heelo Im new but il try to help. I use the website Imageshack to upload pics for the banner then paste the code form that into the are with your signature in it. As for the profile pic you can either upload your own use around 100x100 pixels for best screen resolution or use one of the already loaded ones like I did although I intednt to put my own up soon. Hope this helps you out a little Im here if you need any further help. Nice to meet you by the way!

I'm pretty new here too. You say you're a freak and yet you only watch one episode per week? Buffy is like part of my everyday ritual lol.

Hey all! So I've been here a few days now, but I completely missed this thread, so I haven't exactly introduced myself. My name's Xian, and I'm currently in Austin, TX. Which is an awesome place to be right now that so many of Whedon's creations are in comic book format since there are tons of places to get my fix. Thanks to all who have taken the time to send me private welcomes.

What's up Whedon'holics!
My name is Matt and I'm from the very sunny & sometimes rainy Miami.
I've been looking at this great forum for quite some time and just now decided it would be a good time for me to join in on the fun.
Heres the background on my addiction to anything Whedon. I watched Buffy during season 4 back when I was a youngster and throughly enjoyed it. However, when it came back on I was just out of the loop and that was the end of that. A year ago in July it was my girlfriend of 4 years birthday. In our courtship I’ve given her just about everything a guy can get his gal. Jewelry, flowers, clothes, paintings, ect. You name it I got it. So when her 22nd b-day came rolling around I was very stuck on what to get her. That was until one day she and I were talking about old favorite T.V shows that we loved. She tells me that Buffy the Vampire Slayer was her favorite show of all time and I was floored. Here I think I know everything about this girl and BOOM she drops this bomb of info I couldn’t believe I didn’t already know! I jumped in my car, went over to Best Buy and picked up every season of Buffy, 1-7. She was absolutely head over heels with it. More so than she has been for any gift I’ve ever gotten her. But then she turns to me and says “Your going to watch them with me right?” and it hit me. At the time I was under the impression, for the little bit I remember while it was on the air, it was one of “those” WB shows. I said to her, “Mmmm, babe I don’t think so. Its not really my cup of tea, ya know?”. Then she not only used her girlfriend guilt superpower but said “Well have you even seen one episode?” and so I gave in. I told her I would watch the first episode but that was it. Sure as crack, all it took was one time and I became hooked. Then soon came the Angel seasons and now all the comics. I feel spoiled in a way because I got both shows all in one continuous block whenever we wanted to watch it, for however many episodes we had to see. Soon after we finished then came the comics. You guys had to wait week to week and then years for the comics. I don't know how you did it, but more power to you.
I look forward to sharing some great insights with you guys on the stories we eulogize.
- M

Wow, I just realized I never introduced myself here. Uhh hi, I'm Amara, 16, from San Francisco, California. I just became a Buffy fan about a year ago, just in time for the comics really. I instantly became hooked on Buffy and pretty much all things Joss. I felt out of place at first, loving a fandom that was established and ended years before I was introduced to it, but I've been welcomed by many with open arms. It's such a great fandom. My favorite character is Willow, closely followed by Xander, Giles and of course Buffy. I love all the characters really, which is amazing because I've never found a show where I love all the characters so completely before. Ok, I'm done. I joined about two weeks ago I think... I haven't posted as much as I've wanted too (school and then vacation got in the way), and I hope to remedy this straight away. And welcome to all the people who just joined. Great forum and fandom you've joined here.
