So hi.
I'm Matthew. I'm sure lots of you know me, I'm an active member here, and I frequenty use the SPOTM skype chat. However this may change soon...
I am thinking of changing my display name and profile pic. But I'm scared no-one will know who I am anymore. Thoughts?

First change your name, keep the picture. Then in the avatar caption put foorganders.
after about a week of plenty of posting people will get used to the new display name (methinks) and then you change your picture and make a nice thread in anything and everything saying "CHECK OUT MY NEW AVATAR!!" Then everyone gets used to the new avatar.
Over time, remove the caption from your avatar as people start referencing your new display name instead of foorganders.
Just my tid bit of advice

I'm actually going to change my avatar a little bit every day. I'm going to make the other avatar an overlay on this one and make it more visible every day. That way, the avatars will make a smooth transition.
