It FLOWs, Katie. Just like Katydid. Don't resist it! We love you!

I personally love Primeperiwinkle. And I connect it automatically with you, Katie, especially after meeting you at the AO retreat.
That being said, if you feel like it is best for you to make a change, then know we will support you in whatever you decide to do. Either way we love having you around!

You don't have to resize the picture, you can crop it more square, (I guess that automatically makes it smaller), or download your FB profile picture and choose that one for the forum.
You could change to Primeperiwinkle Katie, or add Katie in your signature (you may already have done that, -I don't see signatures on the phone app).

Keep your picture and change your name. Give us a few weeks (or longer) to get used to that and then change your picture.
Of course, this could just be my old brain.

Ah-ha! It is not just my old brain. Katie, I think the change would be lovely. But I'm still a fan of gradually as we slowly make the new connections.
Don't hang onto something just because it will make me have to think a little.

I could download your FB picture, re-size it and straighten it, and get it back to you...

I'm glad she did too Silvia. Sometimes not having a real puter limits me in the stupidest ways.. Lol.

I think it took me almost a whole minute to download the photo, open GIMP, re-size, and send it back.

(In other words, if anyone else ever needs this kind of help, don't hesitate to ask. It's really no trouble at all.)
