So I'm waving a hello to all of you here *waves*.

I'm in the Rocky Mountain region, an INTP/J, and interested in physics since an early age without knowing it.

I also love to draw and design graphics, if you're interested in looking at my gallery online just reply to this.

I'm into Computer Science too, and of course, I like math, even though I seem to understand abstract stuff much more better than the theoretical.

Oh yes, I am female, but most people think I'm male by the way I write, I find it amusing so I never prove them wrong! :D

So hello and this site is interesting, I will poke about.

Good evening, elephantorz, and welcome to PF.

You've found the lounge, more specifically GD, which is the defacto Welcome hall.

Most folks jump into one of the discussion forums or HW forums.

I'm sure you'll find PF an interesting place.

The real Rocky Mountain region, or the Yankee side? :biggrin:
Welcome to PF.
Pending Mentor approval, of course, you should post a link to your portfolio. I know that I'd be very interested to see it.

Wow! That's some gorgeous art you have there! (Not so sure about the puppy in a fez, though... that seems a bit weird... :biggrin:)
Unfortunately, I got a 'page cannot be displayed' error the last time that I clicked on 'next'. :frown:

That will be unfortunately their server's issue, just keep reloading and that should make it work eventually, thanks though :D.

I like...colorful small fish, angel fish are they? I think so, I might have drawn one digitally now that I think about it...and I like big fish, dolphins, orcas, whales, actually, now that I think about it I like a lot of fish! Haha, including jellies, and even sharks, now I'm not too fond of eating them, unless they're fresh.

Thanks for the welcomes :D.

You do realize that Dolphins and Whales are mammals? :wink:

You wouldn't want to be hit by one of those. Stick with the small ones. :smile:

Oh, but in that thread s/he requested angelfish. We haven't had anyone choose jellyfish in a long time. Those have a really satisfying *splat* to go with the thwack. :biggrin:

Hello and welcome to PF. There isn't a welcome subsection, it was decided it would be too small to swing any adequate sized fish, and besides GD is just as good.

I am ok with angelfish :P but yes I was already initiated.

Hey whatever works, this made me poke about here anyway :].

What's an INTP/J?

(added after a Google search) Looks like a classification from a Meyers-Briggs personality test. I don't know what mine is... I don't think my schools were into personality tests forty-odd years ago.

You can find your type here:

There are a number of free tests but I really like that one, it is recommended you take more than one though.

For a description of an intp go here:

Something that is true for me:
INTPs are pensive, analytical folks. They may venture so deeply into thought as to seem detached, and often actually are oblivious to the world around them.

However, I have tested both INTP and INTJ, truth is I have a higher J percentage than most INTPs I have met [supposedly Einstein was an INTP], anyway, hope that helps!

Generally, I think the Meyers-Briggs test is pretty good at describing a person's temperment. The employer I had about 20 years ago would encourage employees to take the test and share the results.

I have to admit, it did help people with different temperments get along better. A little understanding goes a long way. For example, it helps to know a person is acting a certain way because of temperment, and not because they're purposely being a jerk.

But back then I was an ENTP, now when I take the test I'm an INFJ!

I believe people can change temperament, people change, things happen to them and they can test different.

Yeah, life happens, sometimes.

What is an intro subforum and why can't I find it?

An intro subforum is a section of a larger forum where new members can introduce themselves to the community. It is often used as a way for members to get to know each other and feel more comfortable participating in discussions. If you cannot find an intro subforum, it is possible that the forum you are on does not have one or that it is located in a different section. You can also try searching for it using the forum's search function.

Why is it important to have an intro subforum?

Having an intro subforum can help create a welcoming and inclusive community. It allows new members to introduce themselves and feel like they are a part of the forum. It also encourages communication and connection between members, which can lead to more active and engaged discussions.

Do all forums have an intro subforum?

No, not all forums have an intro subforum. It is up to the forum moderators to decide if they want to include one. Some forums may have a different way for new members to introduce themselves, such as a designated thread or a separate section for introductions.

Can I still participate in discussions if there is no intro subforum?

Yes, you can still participate in discussions even if there is no intro subforum. The absence of an intro subforum does not limit your ability to engage with other members and contribute to the forum. You can introduce yourself in other ways, such as through your first post or by joining ongoing discussions.

How can I make new members feel welcome if there is no intro subforum?

If there is no intro subforum, you can still make new members feel welcome by actively engaging with them in discussions and being friendly and helpful. You can also suggest to the forum moderators to create an intro subforum or a different way for new members to introduce themselves. Additionally, you can reach out to new members through private messages to personally welcome them to the forum.
