Avatar
Spokenrope's avatar is from a print named "Target" done by artist Luke Chueh. Chueh would probably be considered Spokenrope's favorite artist. The avatar is being used without permission, so hopefully Luke doesn't end up suing Spokenrope some day.
Most of Spokenrope's backgrounds have also been "borrowed" from Chueh's works. Using the copy tool in Photoshop, they were expanded to a size suitable for desktoping.

Screen Names
Adam has gone by many different screen names over the years.
Supdog: Supdog was Adam's first internet nickname, and it came as the result of about 5 minutes of thinking. "Sup dog?" was the cool way of asking "Hello friend. How are you today?" at the time, so that's where that came from. That internet name lasted pretty much all through high school.
Sensurrounder: Again. Not a lot of thought went into this one. They Might be Giants (one of Adam's favorite bands at the time) have a song called "Sensurround" that Adam liked a lot. Add an "er" to the end, and you've got a screen name that pretty much means "one that sensurrounds," whatever that means.
eNsaneiconoclast: Jeez. What the hell was Adam thinking on this one. Adam still does consider himself to be something of an iconoclast, but where the misspelled "insane" with a capital "N" came from, nobody knows. This screen name had to be retired because Adam got tired of having to explain to all his friends what an iconoclast actually is.
thebripple: Adam likes this screen name a lot. Breasts + Ripples = Bripples. Think tight shirts and nice breasts. Between the breasts, you shall find the bripples.
Spokenrope: Adam's most oft used nickname, currently. Adam considers himself to be pretty good at communicating with others, especially the ladies. The spoken rope can be interperated two ways - you can rope someone up in order to draw them towards you, or you can use that same rope to hang yourself. That's some zen shit, right there.
Signature
You'll have a hard time finding a signature attached to one of Spokenrope's posts. He considers them obnoxious. He thinks that people who have signatures that are just big ass avatars ought to be shot. Same with people who end their posts with their nickname so that you're absolutely sure who made that moronic comment.
