AI Thread Summary
To change your nickname to "spottedPaint," you must send a Private Message to Greg Bernhardt, as he is the only person authorized to make this change. It's important to be patient, as he receives many messages and may take time to respond. If you haven't received a reply after a reasonable period, a reminder PM can be sent on your behalf. Currently, Greg is on vacation, so consider reaching out to chroot for assistance. The process can be straightforward, but delays may occur due to Greg's busy schedule.

Can I get my nick changed to "spottedPaint"?

Thanks.

You'll need to send a Private Message to Greg Bernhardt requesting a name change. He's the only one who can do that. If you do send the PM, please be patient...it can take a while for him to get to all his messages and act on them.

I sent a PM to Greg back in Nov.

This is a very simple request, and Greg has made a number of posts to various forums since I sent my original PM. What is the hold up here? It should take no more than 5 minutes...

Greg receives many PM's each day, it's quite possible that your request simply slipped through the net. However, if nothings happened by the close of business today, I'll PM him with a little reminder for you.

Thanks. Did you send this PM? With the new year, I'd like to take care of this.
 
Greg is away on vacation. I suggest you pm chroot. Greg has had an awful lot on his plate the last couple of months.
 

Thread 'Thank you to mentors, advisors and members'

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Site Usability nitpick -- Hyperlinks should be underlined'

This came up in my job today (UXP). Never thought to raise it here on PF till now. Hyperlinks really should be underlined at all times. PF only underlines them when they are rolled over. Colour alone (especially dark blue/purple) makes it difficult to spot a hyperlink in a large block of text (or even a small one). Not everyone can see perfectly. Even if they don't suffer from colour deficiency, not everyone has the visual acuity to distinguish two very close shades of text. Hover actions...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
