Welcome
Hello Spacegeek4! Welcome to AboutUs.
It looks like you've done some great work editing the wiki pages for OpenSource.org and WhenU.com. They look really really great, and I'm not just saying that. Feel free to continue exploring the wonderful world of wiki and be sure to let us/me know if you have any questions (you can talk to me via the message link below). Please don't hesitate to let me know if you'd like some assistance in accomplishing your goals on AboutUs and if you want some help or new ideas I've found this to be a nice resource. Welcome to the AboutUs community - it's great to have you!
Have a most wonderful day!

Spacegeek4,
Thanks for all the contributions the last couple of days. I've been telling some of the other staff members about what you've been up to. I think that OpenSource.org and WhenU.com are among the best wiki pages I've seen. Keep up the great work! -- TakKendrick | Talk 12:05, 1 April 2007 (PDT)
- Hello, I made a few SuggestedEdits to WhenU.com. Please revert if you wish. Best, MarkDilley
- Hi, would like to talk with you about how to highlight the sites you mentioned on the DailyBuzz. Best, MarkDilley
- Not really ask you, as much as figure out how best to hightlight the information and such.
Help!
Hey Spacegeek4, I would love it if you would come to the AdultContentPolicy page and participate in defining the direction for our wiki site, after all ItsYourWiki. If you would like to participate, go here and add your name like {{NotYet|need to look at this more}}. Please let me know if you have any questions... I am really interested in what you think about this, the issue and the way we are deciding it. :-) Best, MarkDilley
Help with Big Decision ... AboutUsLogo!
Hello Theo, there is a movement afoot to create a new version of the AboutUsLogo. I'd love it if you would come to AboutUsLogo and participate in creating this important decision about the look/feel for our site, after all ItsYourWiki! Warm Regards, Brandon CS Sanders
Storyteller's Bazaar
Hello Theo,
Have you paid a visit to TheStorytellersBazaar yet? If not, please do. It's jam packed with all sorts of writing activities. Read some of the contributions and hopefully they will inspire you to contribute too. The more you contribute the better the site will become. Come and have a look and enjoy. Tanwir Shah
WhoWeAre
Hi,
I would just like to tell you about the WhoWeAre consensus poll. This is a unique opportunity for all community members to discuss and decide what AboutUs is and more importantly what role we, the community, plays.
The discussion is still in its initial stages and there are a handful of people involved in this discussion. But it's not enough. Every one of us has a stake in this process. We all need to air our views. Our opinions will make a difference. We cannot and must not let a handful of people define us. We must speak out and contribute because we are being defined and I for one would like to have a say in how I am being defined.
Please contribute to this really important project. Without you it cannot successfully create a good definition of who we are. Tanwir Shah
AnnualCommunityReview
Hi, would like to invite you to participate in some conference calls we are having. I think it would be great if you would like to participate, especially interested in your agent of change perspective! :-) Best, MarkDilley
NewSkin Beta Preview
Hello Spacegeek4!
We've noticed your contributions and are glad to be on the AboutUs team with you! As an ActiveMember your energy and ideas determine our future direction. One way that ActiveMembers stay "in the loop" is to participate in the beta previews of large new changes to the site before they are generally released.
Today we're starting a limited beta preview of an earthy NewSkin intended to reflect the alive and growing AboutUs community. The NewSkin is designed to feel wholesome and connected with the real world. This choice was made to reassure the many folks who feel that the internet is a "scary place" where mean people hide behind fake identities and shout insults at each other. We hope that the NewSkin evokes our values in a way that helps visitors and members alike feel grounded in true community.
We'd love your help putting the NewSkin through its paces! To give it a whirl you'll need to be logged in. Once you are logged in, go to "my preferences" | "skin" and select "design". Don't forget to then click the "save" button! You can always go back to the current skin by selecting "aboutus" via the same steps.
Your feedback on the new look for aboutus will help ensure that it has a maximally positive impact when we roll it out. Thanks for being a valuable member of the community, we look forward to your feedback on the NewSkin page!
