Members of the National Puzzlers' League have puzzle pseudonyms, aka "noms". The NPL Web site features a page of nom photos.
Here are instructions on how to post nom photos, should you be moved to do it yourself. You will need a password, which you can get from treasurer(at)puzzlers(dot)org.
- Go to the nom photos page. Click on Edit this Page.
- Scroll to the bottom of the edit window. The last line should start with ||, end with ||, and have a || near the middle. (This tells the wiki to have two cells in a table, with the || indicating the vertical lines.) If the right-hand cell does not have an image in it, skip to step 4 to put your own image in it.
- If the last line's right hand cell already has an image in it, copy the last line, and paste it at the end of the page.
- Add the nom references, or change the nom references in the pasted line to the nom in the photo you're uploading -- each nom appears twice.
- Click on the image icon, above the editing field. (The icon is directly to the left of the smiley face.) A new window opens.
- On the navigation pane on the left of the new window, expand krewe, by clicking on the + sign to its left. Then click on noms. That will get you to the right place. If you succeeded, the words :krewe:noms should appear at the top of the window.
- Click on Choose File. Find and select the image file in your computer. Enter "nom.jpg" for Upload as. (Use the actual nom -- no quotation marks.)
- Click Upload. The image should appear in its alphabetical order position on the list below.
- Go back to the edit window, and click Save. Hopefully, the image is there!
If doing this is too much of a hassle, or if you need help, e-mail me. But really, it's easier than it seems, especially if you compare with solving an Uc rebus.
