This looks ridiculously fun, so I shall participate.
Username: For my decade(s) of fandom participation before HP, I used a different handle. Then I stopped being active in fandom for a while. When I started back up again, I decided to pick a new name because I wanted to clearly distinguish myself from my past works in case anyone had read the zine(s) they appeared in. I initially thought of connecting it to my e-mail address, but I decided that since I use my e-mail for personal stuff as well as fandom, I didn't want to explicitly connect it. (If people in real life are suspicious enough to find me in fandom and want to go through fest sign-ups to try to find my e-mail address, then they deserve to know because that's a lot of dedication.) Anyways, I still wanted something that represented me. So I decided upon notearchiver because I take notes about anything that interests me. I have so many notebooks, scraps of paper, napkins, etc around the house and my office that it's not even funny. One of the rooms in my house has walls completely covered by note cards with songs, quotes, ideas, etc jotted down on them. Literally floor to ceiling. So it seemed appropriate that I use the moniker notearchiver.
Default Icon: My default icons is actually part of a self portrait photograph. I don't much like photography, but I was playing around with my Partner's new camera one day, and I took that photo. There's no digital manipulation. The colors are what happens when you fiddle with macro, the f-stop, zoom, and flash like crazy.
Journal Title/Subtitle: My journal title/subtitle is Sir, you are no gentleman! / And you, Miss, are no lady. It's a quote from Gone With the Wind (in the movie, it's in this scene--the specific line is at around 1:40). As a child, Gone With the Wind was one of my favourite books, and it still holds a special place in my heart. I also chose the quote because I'm trans* and waver back and forth and in between man and woman. It felt very apt.
Journal Header Image: My journal header image is just a larger part of the photograph I use for my icon.
